Sly Cooper and the Thievius Raccoonus (HD)

Sly Cooper and the Thievius Raccoonus HD platinum guide for PS3 and Vita

Sly Cooper and the Thievius Raccoonus (HD)

PS Vita / PS3

Search for bottles and vaults on your first pass while collecting story keys. Blueprints from some vaults make cleanup in later areas easier. Once Clockwerk falls, return only to rooms you skipped: this trophy list does not ask for the time trials.

36 trophies on each The Sly Collection list for PS3 and PS Vita. The PS4 and PS5 reissues have different requirements.

  • Trophy lists: 36 trophies per console, with matching requirements.
  • Vaults: Open all 19 vaults on the HD list.
  • Online: The story and collections can be completed offline.

Progress through the hideouts and collect keys

Finish the prologue and collect keys from each hideout’s missions. Learn to pass behind guard lights and read platform positions before jumping. Pick up coins along your ordinary route; that reaches the early thresholds without needing to replay a level just for more money.

  • Open the levels and mark those with bottles or vaults still outstanding.

Finish the room before opening its vault

Check the local bottle counter, listen for their sound and look under walkways and behind breakable objects. Once the counter is full, interact with the vault and enter the code given by Bentley. Do not leave the mission just because the set is complete; opening the vault is the step that gets the page.

  • Collect the page and check the mission status before leaving.

Use blueprints to guide cleanup

High Class Heist and Two to Tango are useful starting points for blueprints. Once you have the area’s plan, use the binoculars to help locate leftover bottles or objects. Group cleanup by hideout and keep blueprints separate from slow-motion, shadow and dive moves: those move families have trophies too.

  • Check Meeting The Ancestors, Time Stopper, Complete Darkness and Nimble Like A Thief.

Clear the Fiendish Five boss fights

Fight Raleigh and Muggshot after collecting their keys. During Mz. Ruby’s duel, watch the onscreen prompts and learn one sequence at a time rather than relying on music alone. Use the openings between Panda King’s attacks to close in, then finish Clockwerk to earn his trophy and simplify the final backtracking.

  • Finish the remaining bosses before returning to unopened vaults.

Revisit the remaining vaults

If Bentley will not provide a vault code even with all the bottles, mark the level and return after Clockwerk. At the end, verify that every vault is open and that the blueprint collection is complete. Skip Master Thief Sprints if you are only pursuing this edition’s 36 trophies.

  • Greedy Raccoon checks opened vaults, not just their bottles.

Frequently asked questions

Do I need to clear the Sprints?

No. The HD set checks the story, vaults and related objectives rather than every timed challenge.

Why does a vault not accept a code?

Finish the local bottle set. If Bentley cannot decipher the code, return after defeating Clockwerk.
