PS5
You can rescue knights and clear Big Helmet Heroes on Hard in one pass, or split those objectives. Use your first visit to learn how picked-up weapons work and where cages are hidden. Track the easy-to-overlook tasks separately: Excalibur must reach the end of a stage, and two trophies need a second player to join.
PS5 base-game roadmap. Two trophies require a second controller for local co-op.
- Difficulty: All stages on Hard for The Hard Way.
- Missables: Stages can be replayed from the menu.
- Multiplayer: Two controllers for local co-op trophies. No online matches.
Search for all 36 cages before leaving stages
As you progress, inspect side routes, closed rooms and puzzle areas. Cages free playable heroes, and not all of them sit on the main path. Finish each stage you search and note the result before moving on. If you miss one, replay the stage rather than restarting the story.
- Check rooms behind puzzles for cages.
Finish every stage in single-player mode
For Heroic End, clear all 21 stages in single-player. The trophy distinguishes one-player mode from local co-op; joining only the final fight alone is not the documented route. Keep your clears consistent and use stage selection for co-op tasks if that makes tracking easier.
- Record a solo clear for each stage.
Keep Excalibur intact and change the pirate ending
Pick up Excalibur in stage 4; the stone is still attached. Put it down before fights to avoid wearing it out, then pick it back up and cross the finish holding it. At the end of stage 7, aim the cannon at the floating crate beyond the tentacles. If you defeat the boss normally before breaking the crate, replay the level for the alternate outcome.
- Pick up the sword again after each fight.
Clear Hard stages and use enemy crowds
If you collected cages on a lower setting, start replaying on Hard from the first stage still missing a Hard clear. Work on fun-weapon kills, throws and superpowers in crowded waves to reduce cleanup. For the 100-hit combo, try an arena with successive enemies and leave yourself a route to the next target without breaking the chain.
- Check Hard clears, not just the last boss.
Start a local session for the two co-op trophies
Connect a second controller for Oops and Sharing is Everything. Reach the crossbow in the tutorial with both players and use friendly fire against player two for Oops. For Sharing is Everything, finish a stage after the tutorial, such as stage 1, with both characters reaching the exit. Then return to single-player for any unfinished counters and stages.
- Confirm both unlocks before leaving the local session.

Frequently asked questions
Does the platinum require an online lobby?
No. The two co-op trophies use local play and a second controller.
Do I have to start on Hard?
No. You can learn the stages and find cages on an easier setting, then replay them on Hard.
What if Excalibur breaks?
Replay stage 4 and keep the sword out of fights. You need to be holding it at the finish.
