A one-run completion route

  1. During the story: open resource crates, unlock traversal powers from Faults and develop your preferred forms and Talents. Complete Karaoke carefully when you find it; its survival condition needs the correct choices.
  2. After the story: stay in your completed world to finish the optional hunts and side quests. Travel abilities and doors are already open here; starting NG+ resets the quest world.
  3. Clear the award groups: finish the quest bundles below, then Sketchbooks and Hideouts. Work on FBC Tasks and zone levels together to reduce repeat travel.
  4. Finish your build: buy remaining Talents and weapon upgrades, fill the combat slots, craft toward 30 and equip the required outfit and Artifact slots.
  5. Check the platform list: finish the short combat conditions still missing. On PS5 the Platinum follows the other 49 awards; on Steam and Xbox you finish at 49 achievements.

New Game Plus expands build options, but it is not required for the base-game trophy list. You can use Assist Mode while earning achievements. This route is for the base game, checked against launch lists and the 1.4.0/1.4.1 patch history.

Protect the Karaoke trophy

Be What You Want to Be requires every partygoer to survive The Party Won’t Stop. A wrong response can finish the quest while losing this award. Follow the Karaoke guide; quest completion alone does not prove the survival trophy unlocked.

If a response goes wrong, load the previous save before continuing. The game keeps saves at main-quest milestones, so a missed performance can be recovered from an earlier suitable save. Duplicate the current profile first if you want to preserve its progress. Recovery earns the platform award on that save; it does not rewrite your later profile’s world.

Update 1.4.0 expanded profile capacity to seven slots. Check the slot names before loading an older save. The menu does not offer a traditional save-anywhere button.

What the broad quest awards actually need

AwardRequired quest group
Threshold ResearcherUnsupervised Science, The Last Taxi and Crossing the Threshold. Finishing only the labs is insufficient.
Budding MycologistNew Growth plus Carbon Copy Parts I, II and III.
Panopticon InternFreeze Frame, The Party Won’t Stop, The Complete Set, A New Directive, Into the Valley of Death and Panopticon Service Request.
Graffiti ArtistComplete all six Resonant hunts and the story; check the mural after the final missing objective.

Four complete Health or Power upgrades are twelve pieces, rather than twelve complete upgrades. Zone Warden counts 40 zone upgrades across the zones; Field Control separately checks that every zone reached level 5. Ordinary Archive documents and audio recordings are not a requirement for these awards.

Set up the remaining combat awards

Psychic Domination: unlock Command from the Unknown Resonant, equip it and find a Breaker, the large bus-shaped enemy. Wait for the ability charge, aim at that enemy and use Command. The default controller demonstration uses D-pad Up; follow your mapped Command action.

Intense Precision: keep the Dominance timer active through additional Executions for a full minute. A timer dropping to zero breaks the run. Choose an encounter with enough enemies; One-Hit Kills can make an Execution setup harder by killing the target before you stagger it.

Paranatural Agility: use a readable enemy attack to perform three Perfect Dodges within six seconds. You may widen the Perfect Dodge Window in Assist Mode. Love to Deep Dive: enter, leave and re-enter the Gap until you have made three entries within five minutes.

An award did not appear

  • Check the platform’s earned list, rather than using a quest banner as proof. Resonant trophies may register after you leave the Gap.
  • For a quest-group award, check every quest in its bundle; a single completed quest does not cover the whole condition.
  • For counters, check complete upgrades, equipped slots and crafted totals. Finding a recipe is different from crafting it.
  • Install current patches. Version 1.4.0 fixed the Complete Set prompt delay; 1.4.1 fixed the Park Mold interaction regression. Neither note promises a repair for every missing award.
