Ratchet & Clank Rift Apart Spybot

Obtaining the legendary RYNO 8 in Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart is an amazing milestone for completionists. If you collect every spy bot, you'll not only have more lore about the series, but you'll also get a bad ass weapon alongside it. Here's every spy bot location in the game. 

Corson V (Nefarious City) in Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart

Mrs. Zurkon says that she hid a spybot in the factory. In order to find the factory, go right from Mrs Zurkon’s shop in the main square. Keep following the path until you find a magnetic slope. Use your gravity boots to go up. Now, turn right and follow the stairway to the factory. As you enter, you’ll be facing Emperor Nefarious’ forces. Go through the hectic level to find the spybot inside a vent. 

Sargasso in Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart

Sargasso Stones Ratchet & Clank Rift Apart

This can be given by Mort if you provide him with 60 zurpstones to feed Trudi. You can find him near your ship in front of the factory. The side-mission “Help Trudi” will be available after you push back Nefarious’ forces from Sargasso, RIvet’s home planet. To succeed, keep looking at your map, to find the zurpstones on the ground.

They are purple stones that are on the ground. They glow, so these stones stand out among the swamp landscape. Then, when Trudi lets you ride her, you can find zurpstones on towers after shooting them with her fireballs. Collect all 60 throughout Sargasso and go back to Mort to collect the spy bot.

Finish the “Vroom Around” mission in the gold section of the arena. You won’t be able to access it until the end of the game before you fight the final boss. In this fight, you’ll be battling in low gravity. For the first round, you want a powerful projectile weapon to be rid of the flying enemies. They like to zoom around from left to right, so the Warmonger is an effective weapon as it locks on. The lightning bolt/strike weapon can also stun them in place and takes the flying foes out in an instant. In addition, the negatron collider can take multiple out in one fell swoop due to its sheer power.

With the second round, it offers up a few flying enemies once again with many critters on the ground. Use a Mr. Fungi, the Glove of Doom, or the topiary sprinkler to slow them down. You can also use your wrench to take out the weaklings quickly before focusing on the big guys. Use the same tactics for the third wave, and you’ve got a spy bot!

For the second spy bot, go right of the bar entrance and go directly behind the building. Use the yellow grapple hook to zip to another island. You'll find the spy bot there. You may need to wait until you complete Torren IV.

Chef Tulio, when the battle begins, points out a trap you can turn on by pressing the buttons to the left and the right. It will engulf them in flames and is particularly useful if things get too hectic on one side. Warp to the portals with the L1 button to get to the buttons quickly, but keep in mind that the traps need time to reset. Guns like the Negaton Collider, the Enforcer, the Void Repulser, the Buzz Blades, and the Shatterbomb will be helpful in this fight as they can provide an area of effect, as well. 

The Goons-4-Less will show up for the third and final wave. Make sure you equip a powerful weapon like the Warmonger or the Negaton Collider to take them out quickly. You’ll get a spybot for your help.
