Gold Bolts are a collectible in Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart. There are 25 Gold Bolts to collect over the course of the game.

Gold Bolts are used to automatically unlock cheats and extras for use in-game, ranging from stuff like Big Head mode to extra filters for Photo Mode. You unlock these one after the other, meaning that a Gold Bolt doesn’t unlock something specific, just what’s next in line.

You can see what you’ve unlocked with your Gold Bolts in Rift Apart by press the touch button on the DualSense and then hitting R1 until you get to collectibles. Scroll through what you find under Gold Bolts and enable and disable the rewards you want at any time.

There’s usually at least one Gold Bolt to collect per level. Most of them can be located by simply tracking down on your map. Here’s what they look like on your map.

However, there are also Gold Bolts that can only be completed by completing the cups at Zurkie’s in the Scarstu Debris Field.

Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart is available now exclusively for the PS5.
