Astro Bot Crash Site Collectible Guide

Collectible Guide

Where and How to Collect all Collectibles and Level-Specific Trophies in the Astro Bot Crash Site Hub Area

The Crash Site is the hub area in Astro Bot from which you can access new portions of the Galaxy Map and interact with all your collectibles. This collectible guide will walk you through all of the collectibles and level-specific trophies within this zone.

Crash Site Collectibles | Main Area

In the Crash Site Hub world, there are 30 total bots to find and collect, as well as 11 Puzzle Pieces. These are found across the five subdivisions of the Crash Site, each of which becomes accessible as you progress the game and install more modules into the PS5 Mothership.

Additionally, once you have collected every Bot and Puzzle Piece in the game, you’ll get access to the “Great Master Challenge,” at the end of which you can collect a bonus Bot.

I would recommend progressing the game as much as you can outside the Crash Site before attempting to follow this guide. This is because many of the bots and pieces are not obtainable until you’ve collected a certain number of bots and pieces from other worlds.

Lastly, there are a plethora of trophies that you can earn only in the Crash Site. Many of these are specific to bots you have collected, though, forming another reason to leave this guide until last.

Crash Site Bot #1

Interact with the drone behind the spawn once you have collected at least 2 bots.

The bots you summon will help you lift up the boulder, freeing the bot stuck underneath.

It’s based on Selene from Returnal.

Crash Site Puzzle Piece #3

Behind the spawn in the main area, there’s a large boulder next to a drone.

They will help you lift the boulder out of the way, revealing two bots stuck underneath it.

Crash Site Puzzle Piece #5

After collecting the previous two bots, you’ll be able to reach the round platform beyond the aforementioned boulder.

From the top of the rope, jump to the top of the stone plateau, where you’ll find this Puzzle Piece.

Crash Site Puzzle Piece #6

This Puzzle Piece will be carried by some birds that are flying around the main area. However, it will not spawn until you have unlocked the “Squawky” item from the Gatcha Lab.
