Slime Science is what makes life for a Slime Rancher easier and more customizable inSlime Rancher 2. From improving your vacpack to getting a jetpack to just decorating your ranch perfectly, there’s something for everyone in the ever-growing field of Slime Science. While some kind ranchers will send you the occasional blueprints to items, there is more to unlock with treasure pods.

Getting to these treasure pods isn’t always easy. Before setting out to hunt in even Rainbow Fields for these items, a player should have a jetpack and maybe a stamina upgrade. Be ready to look over edges to find hidden lips and ledges you can land on to access some of these hard-to-find gifts.
Updated by Abigail Angell on June 29, 2025:With the new Powderfall Bluffs area being added to the game, we needed to add a section for this region. In The Powderfall Bluffs zone, there are 21 Treasure Pods.
Rainbow Fields
Hosting the smallest cluster of pods is the area just outside the ranch - Rainbow Fields. 14 different pods are out there to be opened for unique creatable landscape materials and upgrades to your gear.
