Dante’s Inferno PS3 platinum guide: shades and relics

Written by

Dante’s Inferno

PS3

Dante’s Inferno can be platinumed on Classic. The biggest risk is missing a coin, a shade or a Virgil commentary before a one-way section. Use the first descent for collectibles that need to stay together, then use Resurrection to develop the path you neglected.

PS3 base game, with 43 offline trophies. DLC is not required; the PSP release is outside this list.

  • Platform: PS3
  • One-run collectibles: 27 shades, 30 silver pieces and Virgil commentaries
  • Difficulty: Classic is valid for platinum
  • Offline arena: 50 waves in the Gates of Hell

Start on Classic and keep separate saves

There is no higher-difficulty trophy. Make a separate save before entering each new circle and check coins, shades, relics, Beatrice Stones and Virgil commentaries. Use seemingly optional Virgil encounters as well; merely walking past him does not add the commentary to your record.

  • Before leaving a circle, check the location list and talk to Virgil until you exhaust the dialogue.

Pick a path and keep track of special shades

Decide whether to absolve or punish most enemies and shades to concentrate experience on one path. For individual character trophies, however, check the exact choice. Absolve both Francesca and Paolo for Forbidden Love even if you are building the Unholy path on that run.

  • Check off each shade after making the choice and track Francesca and Paolo separately.

Use the Malebolge trial for the combo

Keep a save before the Malebolge trials. In the trial that asks you to stay airborne for eight seconds, stay grounded and keep the chain with cross attacks on respawning enemies. Reaching 666 is easier here than in a short story fight because you do not have to find a new group between hits.

  • Before completing the trial, wait for Poetry in Motion to appear.

Finish the opposite path in Resurrection

After the finale, start Resurrection from the cleared save. You retain upgrades, relics and Beatrice Stones, so change your usual choice to gain experience in the other path. Reaching level seven and buying abilities are distinct goals: check that neither tree still has upgrades you need to purchase.

  • If a coin, shade or commentary is missing, replan that whole collection; those counters do not carry into Resurrection.

Finish 50 Gates of Hell waves

Open the arena from the menu after the story. The trial uses a timer and finishing a wave adds time. Go in with an upgraded Dante, use the cross when enemies line up and save magic or crowd control for opponents that cost the most time. This mode is separate from the Trials of St. Lucia.

  • Reach the end of wave 50 in the same attempt.

Trophies to watch

Well Done, Judas

Find All 30 pieces of silver

Track all thirty coins in one descent. A coin collected in Resurrection does not complete the earlier run's counter.

Forbidden Love

Find and absolve both Francesca da Polenta and Paolo Malatesta

Check both shades before choosing: this trophy requires absolving both.

The Damned

Punish or absolve all 27 shades of The Inferno

Interact with all 27 shades on the same playthrough and note each completed circle.

Poetry in Motion

Perform a 666 hit combo

Maintain a grounded chain of hits in a Malebolge trial that keeps spawning enemies.

Gates of Hell

Defeat all enemy waves in the Gates of Hell Arena

Use the offline arena after the finale and manage your upgrades and timer across all 50 waves.

Frequently asked questions

Does the server closure block platinum?

No. EA retired online services on December 8, 2023. St. Lucia's online trials are DLC; all 43 base trophies are offline.

Can I do everything on Classic?

Yes, Classic works for the story and for the arena required for platinum.

What carries into Resurrection?

Purchased abilities, path levels, relics and Beatrice Stones carry over. Coins, shades and commentaries must be collected together in their respective run.
