Platinum

Missable

No

Unlocked by

39.63% of players

39.63% have it, which makes it one of the more accessible Resident Evil platinums. There are no impossible collectibles and no online trophies: what there is are four run-wide conditions — Insanity difficulty, no healing, no blood collector and under four hours — and they can be combined if you plan ahead.

«Encounter an outbreak in Wrenwood.» · Déjà vu

Encounter the outbreak in Wrenwood. It pops in the prologue and 100.00% of players have it: it is the only trophy on our entire site with a flat one hundred per cent.

No

Unlocked by

90.72% of players

It's a progression achievement and can't be missed: of the game's 50 achievements, only nine are story ones, and everything else is technically missable within a given run. These nine are the only ones that land on their own.

90.72% have it. If you're going for the platinum, understand from here that the game is built for three playthroughs: one for collectibles, one against the clock and one on Insanity.

«Escape the care center.» · A Harsh Reality

Escape the care centre, closing Grace's first major stretch.

Category

Story

Missable

No

Unlocked by

90.28% of players

90.28% have it. It's one of the nine story achievements, so it arrives on its own.

Before leaving this area it's worth having done the lockpick, the hemolytic injector and the blood analysis: all three are achievements and all three have their first opportunity here.

«Reach the ground using the suspended platform.» · Going Down?

Ride the suspended platform down to ground level, in Leon's section.

Category

Story

Missable

No

Unlocked by

88.48% of players

Another of the nine story achievements. 88.48% have it.

Leon's part is where nearly all the game's combat achievements live — the hatchet, the thrown weapon, the finishers — so it's a good moment to check which ones you already have.

«Arrive at R.P.D.» · The Hero Returns

Arrive at the R.P.D. Story progress, and the moment anyone coming from Resident Evil 2 is most excited about.

«Defeat the Super Tyrant.» · I Remember That, Too

Take down the Super Tyrant.

Category

Story

Missable

No

Unlocked by

87.79% of players

It's a story boss and therefore mandatory: 87.79% have it.

Right afterwards comes the cave section, home to the 9 Plant 43 seedlings. That isn't a story achievement and it's easy to walk straight past: if you're going for the platinum, don't cross the cave without clearing them.

«Find ARK.» · Umbrella's Legacy

Reach ARK.

Category

Story

Missable

No

Unlocked by

87.70% of players

One of the nine story achievements. 87.7% have it.

ARK is the game's final area and where the Licker β2 appear, with their own counter achievement. If you're missing anything from earlier areas, there's no going back in this run.

«Start exploring the lower levels of ARK.» · The Final Mission

Start exploring the lower levels of ARK. Story progress.

«Complete the main story by releasing Elpis.» · Hope and Requiem

Release the Elpis at the story's final choice.

Category

Story

Missable

No

Unlocked by

86.60% of players

There's more than one ending, and this achievement wants that specific choice. 86.6% have it.

If you're planning the speed run, it's also the ending that achievement requires: you can close both at once by choosing to release the Elpis on the timed playthrough.

«Complete the main story on at least Casual difficulty.» · Rookie Agent

Complete the main story on Casual or higher. It stacks: if you finish on a higher difficulty, the lower ones pop too.

Category

«Complete the main story on at least Standard (Modern) difficulty.» · Rising Agent

Complete the main story on Standard (Modern) or higher.

Category

Missable

No

Unlocked by

80.37% of players

The difference between the two standards matters: on Modern you save freely at typewriters; on Classic you need Ink Ribbons, which are limited.

80.37% have it. And there's a shortcut that saves a whole playthrough: finishing on Insanity unlocks every lower-difficulty achievement at once. If you're going for the platinum, don't do a run per level.

«Complete the main story on at least Standard (Classic) difficulty.» · Resolute Agent

Complete the main story on Standard (Classic) or higher. Classic mode changes the rules: tighter resource management and saving with ink ribbons.

Category

«Complete the main story on Insanity difficulty.» · Remarkable Agent

Complete the main story on Insanity difficulty.

Category

Missable

No

Unlocked by

41.90% of players

At 41.90% it is the rarest trophy in the game, barely two points above the platinum itself. It is the real barrier: clear Insanity and you platinum.

And because the difficulty trophies stack, doing Insanity hands you all four at once.

«Defeat at least three enemies with a single Requiem shot.» · Bang For Your Buck

Defeat 3 or more enemies with a single shot from the Requiem.

Category

They sit in specific rooms and won't cross your path by accident: one in the bar on the west wing, second floor, and one in the conference room on the east wing, second floor.

89.73% have it. Like almost everything in this game it isn't a story achievement: finish the run without visiting those two rooms and it waits for the next one.

«Defeat a Chunk as Grace.» · Grace and Goliath

Defeat a Chunk while playing as Grace, which is the part of the game without heavy weaponry. 70.90% have it.

«Make a zombie attack another zombie in the hospital wards.» · Internal Dispute

Make one zombie attack another in the hospital wards.

Category

Combat

No

Unlocked by

58.89% of players

It is one of the most specific trophies in the game: you have to trigger friendly fire between the infected in one particular area. 58.89% have it.

«Defeat 300 enemies.» · Seasoned Pro

Defeat 300 enemies.

Category

Combat

Missable

No

Unlocked by

88.66% of players

The counter is cumulative across playthroughs, so they don't have to come in one run. Since the platinum wants three passes, it arrives on its own.

88.66% have it. If you're short at the end, any wave area closes it in no time.

«Defeat all the Plant 43 seedlings.» · Not Today, Buds!

Defeat every Plant 43 seedling. They are spread across one particular area and it is easy to miss one: 77.24% have it.

«Use an ink ribbon to save at a typewriter.» · The Ol' Fashioned Way

Save at a typewriter using an ink ribbon.

Category

Missable

No

Unlocked by

60.97% of players

Watch out for this one: ink ribbons only exist in Classic mode. On Modern the game saves for you, so if you always play on Modern you will never see it. That is why only 60.97% have it.

«Unlock a drawer with a lockpick.» · Like Mother, Like Daughter

Open a drawer with a lockpick, playing as Grace.

Category

Missable

No

Unlocked by

93.15% of players

Lockpicks are scattered around the care centre and locked drawers show up marked on the map, so there's no blind searching.

93.15% have it: one of the game's earliest achievements and one of the hardest to miss.

«Defeat a zombie using the hemolytic injector.» · Fatal Dose

Kill a zombie using the hemolytic injector.

Category

Missable

No

Unlocked by

94.75% of players

There's one in the care centre's examination room, and once you've analysed the blood specimen you can craft more.

94.75% have it. The injector is single-use and needs you right up against the zombie, so use it on one that's down or cornered, not mid-corridor.

«Unlock a crafting recipe using analysis.» · Science!

Unlock a recipe by running an analysis.

Category

Missable

No

Unlocked by

94.84% of players

It's done at the analyser in the care centre's blood lab: it's a puzzle, and solving it opens new crafting recipes.

94.84% have it, the second most common in the game. Worth doing early even without chasing the achievement: without recipes you can't craft, and crafting underpins three others.

«Craft an item using the blood collector.» · The Power of Blood

Craft an item using the blood collector.

Category

Missable

No

Unlocked by

94.46% of players

You need the analysis first: the collector is useless until you have recipes.

94.46% have it. A warning for the platinum: one achievement asks you to finish the game WITHOUT Grace ever using the collector. The two are incompatible in the same run, so do this one on the normal playthrough and the other separately.

«Use 300 microsamples of infected blood.» · Blood! More Blood!

Use 300 units of infected blood in crafting.

Category

Missable

No

Unlocked by

92.78% of players

It's a counter and it can be stacked by reloading a save: spend, reload, repeat. You don't have to play 300 times.

92.78% have it. Mind the earlier warning: if you're on the run that forbids the collector, this isn't the playthrough for farming blood.

«Stun the Girl with Requiem.» · Bring Out the Big Guns

Stun the Girl with the Requiem.

Category

Missable

No

Unlocked by

86.09% of players

The Girl is the game's pursuer: she shows up, hunts you and can't be killed, only slowed. The Requiem is the heavy revolver.

86.09% have it. Stunning her once is enough. Save a round for when she has you cornered — that's when you actually need it, and the achievement pops along the way.

«Destroy one Mr. Raccoon memoriam.» · The Hunt Begins

Destroy a Mr. Raccoon memento.

Category

Missable

No

Unlocked by

96.11% of players

They're the series' hidden figures and there are 25 across the game. Destroying any one unlocks this; all 25 give another achievement.

96.11% have it, the most common in the game: it's impossible to play without tripping over one. The other twenty-four do have to be hunted, and that's the collectibles run.

«Parry an enemy attack.» · Untouchable

Parry an enemy attack. It is the game's new defensive mechanic and it is worth practising early: on Insanity it is the difference between clearing the game and not.

Category

Missable

No

Unlocked by

93.35% of players

«Throw a weapon dropped by an enemy.» · Can I Borrow This?

Throw a weapon dropped by an enemy, as Leon.

Category

Missable

No

Unlocked by

96.93% of players

The first chance comes very early, in the prologue. Enemies drop what they're carrying when they fall, and you can pick it up and throw it.

96.93% have it. It doesn't have to kill anyone: throwing is enough.

«Defeat three zombies with a hatchet finishing attack.» · Chop Chop

Kill 3 zombies with a hatchet finisher, playing as Leon.

Category

Missable

No

Unlocked by

93.11% of players

The finisher isn't a normal attack: the R2 prompt appears when the enemy is on the ground. You have to put them down first.

93.11% have it. Three finishers cost nothing if you shoot the legs: they drop and the prompt appears by itself.

«Purchase an item from the supply box.» · Retail Therapy

Buy an item from the Supply Box.

Category

Missable

No

Unlocked by

89.58% of players

The first one appears at the Raccoon City central camp. It doesn't matter what you buy or what it costs.

89.58% have it. It's also where you spend the credits for the achievement that wants 200,000 of them, so don't hoard out of caution.

«Upgrade a weapon.» · Tailor Made

Upgrade a weapon by fitting a part from the inventory, as Leon.

Category

Missable

No

Unlocked by

92.18% of players

The first opportunity is the compensator in the care centre attic. Fitting any part works.

92.18% have it. Worth doing even without chasing the achievement: the Insanity run feels very different with an upgraded weapon.

«Stop one of Victor's attacks on the highway.» · Road Rage

Stop one of Victor's attacks on the highway, during the chase.

Category

Missable

No

Unlocked by

87.95% of players

«Complete the main story by releasing Elpis within four hours.» · Speed Demon

Complete the main story by releasing Elpis in under four hours.

Category

Missable

No

Unlocked by

44.50% of players

44.50% have it. It is far more manageable than it sounds: the timer is the save file clock, so menu pauses do not count against you, and on a second run with the route known four hours is plenty.

«Complete the main story without using herbs or med injectors.» · Never Touch the Stuff

Complete the main story without using herbs or med injectors.

Category

Missable

No

Unlocked by

46.83% of players

It is one of the three run-wide challenges and it can be combined with the others: nothing stops you doing it at the same time as Speed Demon. 46.83% have it.

«Complete the main story without Grace using the blood collector.» · Minimalist

Complete the main story without Grace using the blood collector.

Category

Missable

No

Unlocked by

46.62% of players

This is the challenge that cannot be combined with Bloodlust, so it dictates how you split up your runs. 46.62% have it.

«Craft every possible item with Leon.» · Master Craftsman

Craft every possible item with Leon.

Category

Missable

No

Unlocked by

50.92% of players

At 50.92% it already separates the players heading for the platinum: you have to unlock every recipe and have the materials for each one.

«Open every safe in the main story.» · No Safe is Safe

Open every safe in the main story.

Category

Missable

No

Unlocked by

70.53% of players

This is one of the ones you have to close out inside a single run: if you finish the story with one safe unopened, you replay. 70.53% have it.

«Open all BSAA containers.» · Crate Expectations

Open every BSAA container. Same as the previous one: it has to be completed inside a single run.

Category

Missable

No

Unlocked by

72.16% of players

«Read all the files in the main story.» · Case Closed

Read every file in the main story.

Category

Missable

No

Unlocked by

45.45% of players

At 45.45% it is one of the rarest in the game, and for a silly reason: you have to open each file and read it, picking it up is not enough. And it counts per run too.

«Destroy every Mr. Raccoon memoriam.» · You Little Rascal!

Destroy every Mr. Raccoon memoriam.

Category

Missable

No

Unlocked by

45.13% of players

It is the series' classic collectible and, at 45.13%, the one most people leave unfinished. They are tucked away in corners all over the game.

«Earn 200,000 credits.» · Credit Where Credit Is Due

Earn 200,000 credits in total. It carries over between playthroughs, so it drops on its own if you replay.

Category

Missable

No

Unlocked by

52.33% of players

«Collect 5000 microsamples of infected blood with the blood collector.» · Bloodlust

Collect 5000 microsamples of infected blood with the blood collector.

Category

Missable

No

Unlocked by

47.15% of players

Mind the contradiction: this trophy asks you to use the collector heavily and Minimalist asks you to finish the story without using it. They cannot be done in the same run.

«View all models.» · Model Mania

View all the models in the gallery. They unlock with credits, so it goes hand in hand with Credit Where Credit Is Due.

Category

Missable

No

Unlocked by

45.58% of players

«View all concept art.» · Curator

View all the concept art in the gallery. Also bought with credits.
