How To Get Rat Bone and Rat Skin in Horizon Zero Dawn Remastered

As a seasoned survivor of the post-post-apocalyptic world of Horizon Zero Dawn Remastered, I can attest to the thrill and excitement that this game offers – except when it comes to hunting rats. Oh, the irony! Here we are, battling colossal mechanical beasts, yet we’re reduced to playing Tom in a never-ending game of cat and mouse with these pesky rodents.


Horizon Zero Dawn offers an exhilarating journey throughout, with a few occasional lulls. Similar to numerous open-world games, these pauses often stem from hunting, a crucial aspect for enhancing your equipment in this game.

Unfortunately, not every hunting experience offers excitement or pleasure. For example, catching rats might feel more tedious than entertaining, but it’s necessary if you want to expand your character’s inventory. The guide below offers information on locations where numerous Rats can be found and methods for farming them efficiently, ensuring that you won’t have to hunt for them again in the future.

How To Acquire Rat Bone and Rat Skin in Horizon Zero Dawn Remastered

In the game “Horizon Zero Dawn,” rats prove to be quite elusive when it comes to hunting. It’s not that they’re strong opponents, but rather because they’re so tiny and swift, making them hard to track. The process of hunting them feels like a never-ending chase, much like Tom and Jerry! Furthermore, their spawn points are less frequent compared to those of larger animals such as Boars or Foxes.

To maintain a steady supply of rats for farming, make your way to a well-known destination: the ruins located to the right of Mother’s Watch. This is where Aloy ventured as a child at the beginning of the game. Upon reaching the base of the Ruins, prepare your bow and stay alert – numerous rats will appear here, so continue hunting until you have collected enough Rat Bones and Hides for your needs.

However, fret not! The number of items required for crafting is manageable. In total, you’ll need 4 Rat Bones and 3 Rat Skins (4 Skins if you’re playing NG+ or 5 if you’re playing NG+ on Ultra Hard).
