Beyond Good & Evil 20th Anniversary platinum guide

Beyond Good & Evil - 20th Anniversary Edition

PS4 / PS5

For Jade’s platinum, organise a first run around photos, pearls and chests. Speedrun mode can overlap with other goals, but a second pass after learning the route reduces the risk of missed pickups and avoids relying on a long session without manual saves.

20th Anniversary Edition, separate native PS4 and PS5 lists with matching 35 requirements.

  • Base lists: 35 trophies per console.
  • Online: Not required for the platinum.
  • Collecting: 88 pearls, six film rolls, 18 Mdisks and the chest hunt.
  • Speedrun: Finish the mode; the trophy has no target time.

Start at the lighthouse with the camera

Photograph the animals you meet before advancing the story. Start your checks at the lighthouse and Black Isle, then revisit subjects reachable with zoom and track wildlife by film roll. For Familiar Bloodsucker, look for AEDES RAYMANIS when revisiting the early areas. Also try the small objectives with Woof, the sepia filter and Pey’j’s photo.

  • Fill six rolls and do not skip environments the story is about to close.

Break pearls down by source

Collect pearls along story routes, then check Alpha Sections, four hovercraft races, four looter chases and Volcano’s Treasure. Keys open new doors in the pedestrian district, so return to ones you left locked. Track each completed set and check the total before heading to the moon.

  • Racing Champion needs first place in all four races.

Complete the chests from the past

For the special hunt, check Pey’j’s hidden workshop, Black Isle, Room 1 at the Akuda Bar and Volcano’s Treasure. Follow the sequence of clues to its conclusion rather than stopping at the last chest you recognise. Combine the trip with customisations and MDisks: check Francis’s reward and read Mdisk 13 after obtaining it.

  • Save before leaving for the moon so the earlier cleanup stays accessible.

Fight the DomZ High Priest without losing hearts

Enter the finale with a save you can retry from. Shauni NOhmpahkhan tracks hearts lost during the fight, not how much health you finish with. In phases that change the attack direction or rhythm, focus on dodging first and responding second. If you lose a heart, reload and retry instead of healing and moving on.

  • Track the story clear and no-damage unlock separately.

Complete a session in Speedrun mode

Start Speedrun from its mode menu and use the main route you already practised. There is no target time, so favour reliable fights and transitions. Set aside a session in which you can reach the ending without closing the game; the mode does not offer the regular run’s manual or automatic saving.

  • Finish in the requested mode; a quick regular run does not count.

Frequently asked questions

Does Speedrun have a time limit for the trophy?

No. Speedy Jade asks you to finish the mode. Account for the lack of saves during the run.

Should I look for pearls after the moon?

Finish collections in unlocked areas first and keep a pre-departure slot for forgotten objectives.

Does recovering a heart count as no damage?

No. The DomZ High Priest trophy needs a fight with no hearts lost.
