PS5
The Romeo Is a Dead Man platinum calls for a finish on Orange Chocolate or above, the collectible sets and SilverSox’s trials. Update the game before spending time on kill and summon counters: PowerPyx documented trophies that failed to unlock on early builds. You can return to areas from clear data, so do not immediately restart the story for a missing badge.
Campaign, Romeo’s upgrades and optional trials on an updated build.
- Difficulty: Orange Chocolate or higher for Romeo is a Tough Man
- Cleanup: Revisit areas through clear data
- Version: Use 1.400.100 or newer
- Online: No multiplayer trophies
Choose Orange Chocolate before the campaign
For a single campaign, eat the orange chocolate when the game offers its difficulty choice. The trophy needs a story clear at that level or above. If you would rather learn the fights on an easier setting, use New Game+ for a later run. Try a melee weapon and a firearm that cover different distances and concentrate materials on fully upgrading one before spreading them around.
- Confirm Orange Chocolate or higher.
- Max out one weapon.
Work the Last Night garden during the story
Pick up seeds in missions, have Luna identify them and plant them in the Last Night garden. Horde Man requires 15 grown Bastards, whereas Lucky Man counts summons in combat: equip them and use them when their cooldowns finish. Start early so 777 summons do not turn into a long postgame grind. For Leash Man, wait for a tight group of Rotters and send in an explosive Bastard.
- Grow fifteen Bastards.
- Summon Bastards as you advance through the story.
Track Field Notes, badges and Palace Athene tiers
While exploring, take glowing documents and notes and inspect purple tesseracts for badges. Some badges are rewards or purchases from Shiroyabu, so searching maps alone will not finish the collection. Take the Palace Athene rifts as well: all four danger tiers open as the story progresses. You need one clear at each tier rather than a clear from every entrance.
- Check trial and shop badges.
- Clear Easy, Normal, Hard and Very Hard in Palace Athene.
Take SilverSox’s rematches
In the Room of Trials, talk to SilverSox and take on the harder boss variants: first wins award badges needed for the collection. Rematches also cover Encore Man, which asks you to defeat each boss twice. Use a single fight to attempt Flawless Man without risking a full gauntlet. If Romeo’s stats need work, spend your trial rewards and return with a more durable build.
- Get the hard-rematch badges.
- Attempt a damage-free rematch.
Load clear data and finish Boss Rush
After the ending, save clear data and reload it for postgame. Boss Rush lines up seven opponents and does not refill your healing between fights. Enter with strong stats and do not spend all your supplies on the first opponent. The normal rush awards Proven Man; check Boss Rush Z for the remaining badge. Compare the collectibles, garden and trials against the PS5 list before starting New Game+.
- Keep the clear data.
- Track the normal rush trophy separately from the Rush Z badge.

Frequently asked questions
Can I platinum the game in one campaign?
Yes, by starting on Orange Chocolate and using postgame for collections and trials. Alternatively, learn the game on a lower difficulty and replay the story in New Game+.
How do I recover a note or badge after the credits?
Save and load clear data to return to areas. If you still lack a badge, check vendors and trials as well as the rooms you visited.
What should I check if a counter trophy does not unlock?
Check your PS5 build. PowerPyx reports fixes starting with 1.400.100 for counters such as summons and kills. Do not assume an older save will unlock a trophy immediately.
