Crash Site Guide: All Bots, Puzzle Pieces, and Facilities

The Crash Site is the hub planet of Astro Bot with more areas being unlocked as you progress through the game. Check out all of the Crash Site facilities, information on how to unlock them, as well as all of the Bots and Puzzle Pieces you can find on the Crash Site planet in this guide!

Crash Site Collectibles Overview

Crash Site
Bots	30
VIP Bot Eggs	14
Puzzle Pieces	11

Although 30 Bots are listed as the official number of Bots that can be found at the Crash Site, you can get an additional Bot upon completing the Great Master Challenge here, bumping up your total number of Bots to 301.

If you have save data from Astro's Playroom, you may also be able to find 4 additional Bots here.

You can also obtain VIP Bots in eggs that are not counted towards the total Bot amount. However, they still contribute to your VIP Bot collection.

List of Crash Site Facilities

Gatcha Lab

The Gatcha Lab allows you to get various items for the Crash Site, special items for certain VIP Bots, Dual Speeder colors if you've unlocked the Dual Speeder Garage, and outfits if you've unlocked the Changing Room. These can be obtained at random for 100 coins per spin.

Special items for VIP Bots can only be obtained once you find and rescue the corresponding VIP Bot. The Crash Site items that are available appear to be tied to the amount of puzzle pieces you've collected.

Dual Speeder Garage

The Dual Speeder Garage allows you to change the color of your Dual Speeder spaceship by hitting the bucket of the color you want.

All Dual Speeder Skins

Changing Room

The Changing Room allows you to change outfits by hitting the outfit you want to change into. Outfits and costumes can be obtained from the Gatcha Lab after you've unlocked the Changing Room.

All Astro Bot Outfits

Safari Park

The Safari Park is a facility containing different types of animals in different environments. This contains several photo areas and appears to be an area primarily meant for picture-taking, but it also contains coins and VIP Bot eggs. This is also where you can unlock Photo Mode.

Gold Statue and Great Master Challenge

After collecting all the puzzle pieces available in the game, you will unlock a gold statue on Crash Site. If you've also collected 300 Bots, you can use this statue to reach a small planet above the Crash Site, which houses the Great Master Challenge.

The Great Master Challenge involves intense, fast-paced platforming that leaves little room for error, which makes this a solid contender for the most difficult level in the game.

Other Features

The Crash Site also has a machine with a record of all VIP Bots you've collected so far. This is located near the center of the main area.

The centerpiece of the Crash Site is a PS5-shaped vessel that you repair as you progress through the game.
