PS4 / PS5
Dave the Diver reached PlayStation in April 2024, splitting trophies between diving, the restaurant and daily activities. Credits are not the whole platinum: Cooksta, staff training and phone systems continue afterwards. Protect Ration Eater during infiltration and start day-based objectives early, rather than closing every service without checking the cat or GYAO.
Base-game roadmap for PS4/PS5. Console trophy stacks remain separate; additional groups do not replace platinum requirements.
- Required difficulty: No mandatory high-difficulty setting is required.
- Missable trophies: Eat the rations during the Sea Blue base infiltration.
- Online: The platinum route can be completed offline in single player.
Eat rations inside the Sea Blue base
During infiltration, do more than avoid guards: find and eat the rations before leaving the base. Ration Eater belongs to this story sequence, not generic restaurant food. Retain earlier progress when possible and confirm the unlock while still in the sequence; ordinary diving does not provide unrestricted base access.
- Confirm Ration Eater before leaving the infiltration sequence.
Add the cat and GYAO to your routine
Visit the restaurant cat during the day and use food found while diving. Its story event differs from the twenty-feed counter. Care for the phone’s GYAO through the required growth; simply opening the minigame does not complete five raisings. Make these checks part of your pre-service routine.
- Check the cat and GYAO before evening service.
Grow the restaurant with an economic plan
Cooksta depends on restaurant quality and development, not story completion alone. Research dishes, enhance recipes and train staff with targeted spending. A level-twenty employee needs substantial funds, so avoid spreading every profit across all recruits. Branch, vegetable farm and rice field each have separate progress screens.
- Allocate funds separately to staff, farming and recipes.
Separate diving collections
Weapon blueprints, photos, murals and FishMon are separate collections. An ordinary fish does not replace a FishMon request capture. Check crates, workshop resources and photo spots without carrying so much that you jeopardise the return. For Mjolnir, catch a fish using the weapon; finding it alone is insufficient.
- Record the collection type before marking a discovery complete.
Use postgame for unfinished systems
After the ending, schedule compatible daily tasks: materials, GYAO care, cat feeding and restaurant service. The credits minigame has its own trophy, so do not immediately close the game. Collaboration content does not replace base-list requirements; check actual missing entries before hunting every later-added creature.
- Compare the base list with unfinished daily systems.

Frequently asked questions
Can fishing recover Ration Eater?
No. It belongs to the Sea Blue base sequence where rations are available.

No. Momo’s story and Catman’s twenty feeds are distinct.
Must I restart for Cooksta?
No. Restaurant, staff and side activities can continue after the story.
