PS5
Nobody Wants to Die spreads trophies across investigations, objects and decisions. One final response cannot recover every skipped New York interaction. Keep chapter notes and plan another route for the alternate ending when no external save copy is used. PS Plus cloud storage is an optional convenience, not a necessary platinum purchase.
Base-game roadmap for PS5. Console trophy stacks remain separate; additional groups do not replace platinum requirements.
- Required difficulty: No high-difficulty setting is required.
- Missable trophies: Local interactions and ending choices must be prepared during the story.
- Online: The platinum route can be completed offline in single player.
Finish interactions before leaving a scene
Examine every reachable object in the opening car before progressing. Locations contain trophy actions beyond reconstructing murders. Separate optional objects from mandatory evidence and make a final inspection before leaving, particularly in the car and James’s apartment.
- Check optional actions before each chapter exit.
Prepare objects spanning several chapters
Take the Scotch at Icarus Bar before leaving; Old Fashioned finishes by drinking it in the next chapter. Document choices have opposite outcomes: burning or leaving them. Note your chosen variant and recover the other in another route or available backup rather than assuming autosave preserves both simultaneously.
- Carry the Scotch beyond the bar and record the document choice.
Complete evidence connections
Inspect clues and finish every evidence board. At the Old Museum, the response identifying Green as responsible matters for keeping the positive outcome available. Record the exact corresponding choice in your game’s language; a similar response about another character is not interchangeable.
- Finish all boards before the museum decisions.
Plan both endings with a free route
Anguish and End of Deadly Dreams require different outcomes. Without an appropriate external backup, finish and replay the route for the other result while preserving its prerequisites. Reloading the final autosave is not guaranteed to restore the last decision. Plan endings from earlier chapters rather than buying cloud storage at the last moment.
- Record the missing outcome and its preparatory decisions.
Finish optional games and messages
The decontamination game, messages and Chicken of Justice puzzle are separate goals. Finish optional activities rather than merely examining their objects. During the final audit, distinguish unattempted actions from incompatible outcomes already reserved for the next run, avoiding another identical ending while an earlier interaction remains missing.
- Separate messages, minigames and endings in your notes.
