PS5
Rift Apart lets you revisit planets, but not every activity behaves like a free-roam collectible. Some trophies depend on weapon use during encounters, others require specific objects, and the complete arsenal also involves starting Challenge Mode. Rotate weapons during the campaign, track defeated Grunthors and postpone targeted searches until the map becomes more useful. Before beginning the next cycle, preserve the story save so cleanup remains distinct from subsequent purchases.
Rift Apart’s PS5 base list, separate from Ratchet & Clank (2016).
- Required difficulty: The lowest difficulty is compatible with trophies.
- Missable trophies: Extinction Event needs attention to Grunthors; finish its count during Sargasso visits.
- Online: No mandatory multiplayer trophy.
Rotate campaign weapons
Leaving every weapon action until the ending may force you to recreate suitable encounters. When buying a tool, test its effect against small groups and inspect its requirement. Do not confuse owning a weapon with using it for a trophy; record those two kinds of progress separately.
- Test newly purchased weapons before returning to your favourite.
Finish the Grunthor count
At Sargasso, fight the available Grunthors rather than bypass them all for faster progression. The condition counts the required kills, not planet visits. If the trophy is missing, check progress during story returns and resolve it before treating the world purely as collectible cleanup.
- Earn Extinction Event before considering Sargasso finished.
Separate bears, Spybots and other objects
CraiggerBears are not another kind of Spybot. Keep two lists: bears complete their own collection, while Spybots lead to the RYNO. On returning to a planet, search for the genuinely incomplete category first; a general exploration indicator does not replace checking the required objects.
- Track CraiggerBears and Spybots separately.
Resume before the concluding fight
After the story, use the save that resumes exploration for arena challenges, planets and collecting. At Zurkie’s, check which cup is required rather than assume any victory counts. Finish this cleanup with your developed equipment before opening another progression cycle.
- Check arena and planets from the story save.
Start Challenge Mode for the arsenal
Challenge Mode does not mean replaying the entire campaign for the platinum. The relevant step includes weapons available at the start of the new cycle. Check inventory and the shop before progressing too far; distinguishing missing purchases from upgrades prevents pursuing unnecessary weapon levels.
- Check the additional Challenge Mode purchases.
Trophies to watch
Extinction Event
Kill Five Grunthors
Do not skip every Grunthor during story visits to Sargasso; finish the five-kill requirement first.
UnBEARably Awesome
Find all CraiggerBears
Bears have their own collection; use a planet checklist separate from Spybots.
Aim to Misbehave
Acquire the RYNO
Complete the Spybots and then confirm acquiring the RYNO, not merely its associated blueprint.
Frequently asked questions
Must I finish a second campaign?
Not for the Challenge Mode weapon purchases alone: it must be started, but that step does not require completing its entire campaign.
Can I return to planets after the ending?
Yes, by resuming the story save before the final encounter. This is suitable for remaining collections and arena tasks.
Must I find every object in the game?
Follow each collection’s trophy requirement. Bears and Spybots have specific targets; other categories do not necessarily require complete collection.
