How to unlock the Where's My Cape? achievement in Saints Row IV - Definitive Guide

To complete this achievement, you need to purchase all of the upgrades for your super powers available to you using the clusters you collect in the world. Of the 1255 clusters in the world, you only need 1065 of them to unlock everything - if you've collected all of the clusters, you should have 190 of them remaining once it's all said and done.

You do NOT need to earn all of the powers that you gain by completing challenges. This achievement popped for me while some were left unlocked, so you should be fine.

All that being said, many people are reporting this achievement to be glitched, so you may run into some issues with this one. If it's helpful, I unlocked this achievement under these conditions:

-Having already beaten the game
-At Level 50
-Completed all quests and loyalty missions
-100% completion of open-world activities
-All collectables collected (all clusters, audio logs, statues and text adventures)
-All challenges NOT completed. I still had powers locked away as challenge rewards.

It is worth noting, as has been mentioned in the comments, that no matter what you do, you cannot unlock this achievement until you've completed the mission "The Kinzie Gambit" - the last of your powers are locked by progression until you complete this one.

Best of luck, and if there becomes a clear solution to how to avoid a glitch, I will update accordingly.

I finally got this to unlock after running through the game a second time. I didnt delete my old save so the time spent in my first playthrough (25 hours) still showed up in the stats section.

For those interested, it took me 11 hours total to get this in a new playthrough. I didnt buy a single upgrade the entire game but did unlock some from playing activities.

1) I played through the main missions until I beat Kinzies Gambit (3 hours total)
2) Then I collected over 1065 clusters (stupidly without the collectible finder) while doing some of the activities. Was level 30 at this point (8 hours in total)
3) Leveled up doing the side missions (not loyalty missions) and buying the Zero Saints Thirty outfit over and over for 200XP (takes roughly 50k cache per level for the higher lvls)
4) Bought all the upgrades, last one was Sprint - Wall Running. Ach popped. (11 hours total)

Hope this helps anyone who is going to go for it.

MAKE SURE to get the COLLECTIBLE FINDER from a Matt Miller side mission before collecting all the orbs!

So glad this is finally over. I was so annoyed it didn't unlock on my regular playthrough.

Still glitched.... I didn't read this until I had bought all but 3, and didn't make a hard save beforehand. Completed kinzies gambit, bought the last 3, didn't pop...

I had this glitch on me years ago.
This game has been backwards compatible on the XB1 for a while now. I tried loading my old save on the XB1 (from before buying last upgrade) and then buying the last upgrades but it didn't work on that either.

This is just a heads up for people that are curious.

I had commented this a while back on a different solution but seems that whole solution is gone now.

Dunno why this achievement is glitched for so many people, unlocked just fine for me:

I waited till I did "THE KINZIE GAMBIT" quest, which unlocks the last upgrade the SUPPRESSION - POWER RECOVERY 1-3 (Force Shield). At this point I bought EVERYTHING what was left and the achievement unlocked right as soon as I bought the very last upgrade.

So I didn't complete the main quest and had 63/66 challenges done, 36/39 audio logs, did ALL activities, hotspots, flashpoints, targets, viruses, car thefts, stores and I collected all 1255 clusters! Hope this helps others.

I can confirm this can only be unlocked after completing "The Kinzie Gambit" main quest.

same, I unlocked it after doing the Kinzie Gambit mission, since it unlocks the last upgrades for the shield power.

I don't know if this helps any one but I am at 100% complete and some of my powers are still grey but I went to force shield and saw one that I missed at the bottom and it unlocked the achievement so you have to buy the passive ones too.

Can you go back into the simulation after completing the very final story mission "The Grande Finale"?

Yes you can ^vbats1. Anyone who discovers whats going on with this achievement let me know. I've got 100% complete, obviously the 190 remaining clusters and everything appears to be unlocked and upgraded. Still no achievement.

I got the achievement to unlock on my second play through. I only had enough data clusters to unlock all super power upgrades 1065, and of course being level 50. I didn't upgrade any super power until the kinzie gambit mission was complete. I did all side quests up until this point as well.. Such a glitchy achievement

Totally speculating here, but if you're only going to be playing for the achievement, and you're not looking to part with the game immediately, you might wait for the first patch to see if that helps to unlock it. Otherwise, if you've got everything purchased, you'll probably need another playthrough.

Perhaps saving the game before buying the final upgrades is a good idea? Then you can try several times to get the achievement in many different circumstances. Let's see if I will be lucky.

Do you need to be level 50 and what do you after do in order to unlock everything i am on my 2nd play through this glitched for me before and i really can not be bothered to 100% the game again so any quick ways to get this would be nice

Had completed the game to 100% without this popping so had to play a new game.

Quickly ran through the story to the Kinzie Gambit mission and stopped after, collected all the clusters I could see and only done activities to level up to 50. To help to get to 50 quickly, I used all my money on buying the 'Saints Thirty Zero(?)' outfit in the Planet Zin store, which gives 250ish exp per purchase each 1.7-2k. Done all the activities I needed to and no side quests. Game was at approx 65% and the achievement (thankfully) happened.

After 30 hours on my first playthrough it was glitched
I did what Rikk Bird did, after completing the Kinzie Gambit mission I got to level 50 as fast as I could, side quests seemed to level me up so I bought all the XP boost upgrades I could and did the side quests.I had about 30 or so clusters left but I saved before upgrading just in case it glitched again but I got it first try on my second playthrough after 11 hours, it was a real grind...

Should also note, for those who were curious as I was, that I only unlocked the ones requiring the orbs to buy. I still had locked ones that required challenges, etc, so it does appear that these can be left out.

This achievement glitched for me in my solo playthrough because the last two powers disappeared for me suddently. It disappeared from "BACK (button) > POWERS" menu and as consequence stayed unavailable for use in open world, main missions and sidequests. Luckily these powers continued working normally in the co-op playthrough and this way I got the achievement.

Does this still glitch? Trying to avoid it but there’s no one certain way that’s been discovered

Did you tried to play in co-op? According I posted above, this way worked for me.

So the tried and true way seems to be to not purchase any Super Powers until after The Kinzie Gambit, then you can proceed to purchase Super Powers in any order you would like and you can also collect clusters as you go. No need for collectibles or any more story missions to be completed

I Can confirm that as the Achievement says its only the powers that you need to spend clusters on that are needed for this to pop, as i got it when i bought Suppression - Power Recovery 2 and 3 in the Forced Shield Category, I Still have powers locked like Sprint - Haste and Buff - Passive Agressive.

First and foremost, this achievement is glitched (as of September 2020 anyway, and it's been out since 2013 so I'm assuming it ain't being patched). Thankfully, there is a workaround.

I thought it was worth leaving a solution specially for those who have had this achievement glitch on them, since I had to dig through comments to find out what to do (including some conflicting information), and also wanted to add my own two cents. This solution assumes you've already beaten the game, should've popped the achievement, it hasn't popped, and you've come to TA to find out why. So:

1) Start a New Game (on Casual of course). Just play story missions, nothing else, until you beat the level "The Kinzie Gambit". This is about 3-4 hours in. Once you've beaten this mission, stop playing story missions. For some reason doing so will glitch the achievement.
2) Play the side mission that unlocks the collectible finder. Can't remember what it's called, but at this point in your game you'll definitely have unlocked it. It's a Matt Miller mission.
3) Reach level 50. Playing side missions is probably the quickest/easiest way to do this, but there's also an outfit in Planet Zin called "Zero Saints Thirty" which you can buy as many times as you like; it costs 1700 credits and awards 200XP each time. You can also play Activities to get XP. Also, any non-cluster collectibles give XP, so collect any that you pass that are easily accessible.
3.5) While you're doing this, collect any clusters that you pass (marked on your map thanks to the collectible finder from step 2). I would recommend completing "Towers" first because climbing to the top awards XP and there are lots of clusters on the way up. Also along the way, make sure you're buying upgrades (especially XP and cache bonuses) but make sure you don't buy any power upgrades. From the back button menu (with Map, Quests etc), anything in "Upgrades" is fine, just never click on "Powers".
4) Once you're level 50, collect any more clusters; you will need exactly 1065. There are significantly more than this in the game, so if you're struggling to find/access any, just move on. There are enough easily accessible ones to go around. Also, on the map, they don't appear by default even with "All" selected, but if you scroll down to collectibles they will appear. You don't need to do this to make them appear on your minimap though; once you complete the side mission in step 2 they will always be there.

Once you've completed these 4 steps, you're level 50 with 1065 clusters, go into the "Powers" menu and just buy absolutely everything. The achievement should pop!

A few things to note. Firstly, don't panic if you get to the buying Powers upgrades stage and there are a couple that are locked (with the message "Complete challenges to unlock this upgrade"). This happened to me and the achievement still popped. This is because technically these upgrades can't be "purchased", they have to be unlocked (and don't cost any clusters), so therefore they don't count towards the achievement description. If you're level 50 with 1065 clusters, you'll be able to get the achievement.

Secondly, when I did it I did step 3 and step 4 in reverse (went around collecting clusters first, then focussed on levelling up). I wouldn't recommend this way. Most of the side missions involve plenty of running (or driving) around, which means you're often going straight past plenty of clusters. Either way is fine of course, but the way I've listed above will take less time. My way took 12.5 hours according to the in-game timer, so I guess the way I've listed above will take between 10 and 12.

Thirdly, I'd highly recommend having a podcast or something to listen to at the same time as playing. I absolutely love the humour in this game, and enjoyed replaying all the story missions, but when you're just doing side missions/activities and running around collecting clusters, something to listen to at the same time really helps it to not feel like a massive waste of time...

The trophy is buggy!!!
I advise you not to switch between different saves while completing this trophy, I was not allowed to switch the trophy. You have to replay the game.
