Trophy & Achievement Guide
Last verified: August 27, 2026 · Launch day
Resonance: A Plague Tale Legacy has 37 trophies — 1 Platinum, 5 Gold, 9 Silver and 22 Bronze. A full completion takes about 20 hours at an estimated difficulty of 3/10, and can be done in a single playthrough.
The platinum — "The Sea Scorpion" — requires everything else in the list.
Combat trophies can all be farmed via checkpoint restart.
Platinum Roadmap
- Difficulty: 3/10. Difficulty does not affect trophies — you can do everything on Narrative with Invincible Mode enabled. (Two combat trophies — "Untouchable" and "Excessive force" — unlock more reliably on Nightmare difficulty with Invincible Mode.)
- Time to platinum: ~20 hours.
- Online trophies: 0.
- Missable trophies: 1 — "Like a warrior" (165 of 200 Resonance Points in a single playthrough).
- Glitched trophies: 0 reported (a couple of combat trophies can be picky — see their entries).
- Minimum playthroughs: 1.
- New Game+: No. Free roam: No — the game is linear, but Chapter Select is available at any time.
- Saves: No manual saves — 1 autosave, but 6 profile save slots (one per playthrough).
"Like a warrior" requires buying all skills in the 6 mastery branches, which costs 165 Resonance Points. The 200 Resonance Points in the world do not carry over in Chapter Select, so you must collect 165 of them in a single playthrough. They only save at checkpoints — if you die, recollect them. Miss 10+ in a chapter and restart it immediately.
Step 1 — Collectible Playthrough
Follow the collectibles guide chapter by chapter. Collect at least 165 Resonance Points along the way (you can skip 35). All other collectibles — blades, artefacts, charms, echoes — can be mopped up in Chapter Select after the story.
Step 2 — Combat Trophy Cleanup
After the story, use Chapter Select to finish the combat trophies. All of them can be farmed via checkpoint restart — the spots below are the most reliable.
