PS5
Avowed combines an ending on the hardest difficulty with quests and choices that do not all coexist on one story route. Keep separate saves before major transitions. Check each region before moving on; entering the next chapter without a save can lengthen the cleanup.
51-trophy PS5 list released with the first anniversary update.
- Difficulty: Path of the Damned for A Test of Your Reflexes.
- Choices: Separate Steel Garrote and Sapadal branches.
- Online: All trophies are single-player.
Set difficulty immediately and cover the prologue
If you want the difficulty trophy on the same run, set Path of the Damned before starting and leave it on. Explore Fort Northreach before sailing, because Hawkeye’s hidden room is in the prologue. Save manually before leaving story areas and do not overwrite every slot with the last mission.
- Confirm Hawkeye before leaving for Paradis.
Save before deciding Fior’s fate
In Emerald Stair, take Steel Resolve before completing The Animancy Method. Keep a save before confronting Ranger Dorso; saving Fior and supporting the Steel Garrote require different choices. Verify Fior Extinguisher when you return to the governor after the events of Ancient Soil.
- Do not use your only save for both branches.
Complete regions with a separate checklist
Divide the map by region and track dungeons, bounties, fast travel, memories and totem fragments separately. When you find a fragment, check its shrine and resume from a known point. With treasure maps, collect the indicated reward; owning the map alone does not satisfy Pathfinder.
- Finish side quests and bounties before moving on.
Keep companions until their Garden moments
Speak to companions at camps after main events, finish their training and unlock their abilities. Before choices that make them leave, preserve the route where you can see every Garden moment. Go for the trophy about losing the party on the Steel Garrote branch, not on that same save line.
- Verify each companion’s moments and abilities.
Separate the two Sapadal decisions
Keep a save before the Sapadal choice to release the entity and try the opposite outcome without losing the main campaign. Check any other local requirements before the ending. Use the Path of the Damned run for the difficulty unlock, and focus replays on missing branches or items.
- Verify A Test of Your Reflexes before starting another run.

Frequently asked questions
Must I do everything in one run?
No. Split incompatible choices among saves or runs and keep the required difficulty campaign separate.
Is the final mission on Path of the Damned enough?
For the safe route, select it at the start and keep it through the ending.
When should I make manual saves?
Before faction choices, regional transitions and companion scenes. This lets you revisit the right decision without starting over.
