PS4
Days Gone leaves extensive post-story cleanup, but one early habit saves substantial work: loot human enemies while missions provide them. Camp and bike progression combine with map activities, while advanced equipment makes hordes more manageable. Do not turn temporary regional lockouts into an anxious collection rush. Keep category checklists and inspect counters requiring specific actions rather than merely finishing the campaign.
PS4 base-game roadmap. Survival, New Game+ and Challenges are separate groups; PS5 remaster is outside this list.
- Required difficulty: The base platinum does not require Survival or high difficulty.
- Missable trophies: Regions reopen after the story; early human looting reduces cleanup.
- Online: No multiplayer required.
Make space before looting humans
You’ve Got Red on You counts items collected from corpses rather than enemies merely killed. Use or craft materials before looting a full inventory so new items can be collected. Missions featuring human opponents provide useful opportunities; gathering infected ears advances a different counter.
- Check inventory space before looting human corpses.
Use activities to make travel easier
Ambush camps, infestations and NERO checkpoints offer different benefits. Complete them during useful journeys rather than treating them as one generic category. If a fast-travel route remains blocked, inspect infestations; if a recipe or map information is missing, review camp progress. The right category identifies the activity to pursue.
- Check the three categories separately in each region.
Develop three camps with a plan
For maximum trust required by the list, inspect camps near the threshold and unfinished jobs. Spending and reputation are different values; spending credits in the wrong place does not automatically complete desired trust. Assign rewards and activities to a specific destination while considering bike upgrades and upcoming missions.
- Review the three chosen camps before distributing rewards.
Prepare a continuous nitro drift
Burnout Apocalypse requires nitro and drifting simultaneously for at least 5 seconds. Check nitro upgrades before attempting it and choose open space without obstacles interrupting the turn. Do not confuse Farewell Drift’s cumulative time with this continuous single action; completing one does not prove the other is satisfied.
- Distinguish cumulative drifting from five continuous nitro-drift seconds.
Return to collections when regions reopen
Narrative transitions can temporarily close part of the map. Continue and use postgame for final collection, trust and skill checks. The Broken Roadshow requires over 75%of collectibles rather than literally every item. Hordes can provide useful progression, but do not turn every optional activity into an invented requirement.
- Check collection thresholds after regions reopen.

Frequently asked questions
Do points of no return permanently remove collections?
The story’s regional lockouts are temporary; postgame allows returning to regions for cleanup.
Must I find every collectible?
The main collection trophy asks for over 75%. Check the exact list threshold rather than adding an unnecessary 100% requirement.
Is Survival mandatory for One Percenter?
No. Survival, Challenges and New Game+ trophies are additional groups beyond the PS4 base platinum.
