Death Howl

Death Howl Platinum Guide (PS5)

Death Howl

PS5

Death Howl’s platinum asks you to finish the story and revisit several maps with side-quest items or cards. Bring a deck that leaves resources for movement, learn enemy attacks and use the return trip for Scattered Senses. Tackle side quests with special rules when the deck is ready, even if you discover them early.

Base PS5 list, 21 trophies. The 2026 PlayStation launch follows the 2025 PC release.

  • Combat: Turn-based grid battles; cards and movement draw on shared resources.
  • Quests: The safest route is to finish every listed side quest before starting the finale.
  • Online: No online trophies.

Adapt your deck to the four realms

Spend the first Death Howls on cards useful across several fights and keep an answer to ranged attacks. Leave enough movement to escape a boar’s charge lane instead of spending everything on an attack. Use Sacred Groves to heal and craft cards, remembering that resting brings enemies back. Adapt the deck separately for Cantharsis, Exorath, Cephagloom and Tradontoz, replacing cards that keep sitting unused.

  • Keep a defensive option and a way to attack without standing adjacent.

Start with the early requests

In the Forest of Howling Shadows, take on the blue bird task for Flames of Vengeance. In Meadows of Delusion, follow the fish’s request and bring back all five scales. Keep those separate from the Scattered Senses nose found in the same area. Talk to the painter, whale and woolly creature as you meet them, and record who issued each item. The trophy usually needs a return conversation.

  • Track each delivery and the character you need to return it to.

Finish both Valley quests

In Valley of Desolation, speak to the stone face and mark four return stops: tongue in Dead Roots, nose in Meadows of Delusion, ear in The Hidden Vale and eyes in The Wailing Marshes. Return all four together. For Water Bearer, collect the three beast parts from local fights and offer them at the beetle pool. Enter the new passage and use ranged attacks and block against Bisti, who can cross many tiles quickly.

  • Check both Scattered Senses and Water Bearer before leaving the Valley.

Prepare for one special trial at a time

In Wailing Marshes, take the Cleanser bowl and drop to five health or less before carrying it to the altar. In the Moors, rotate Brooder’s three eggs to match the symbol by the large stone, then enter and win the battle. For Uninvited Sorrows, use Oxheart during encounters and do not rest at a Sacred Grove between groups, since resting resets the regional clear.

  • Restock and fix your deck before lowering health or attempting a no-rest sequence.

Resolve the last duels before the finale

In the Breathing Chasm, take both spearheads and join them in battle to open Crafter’s route. In the next fight, defeat the grey stone first because it can revive the other. For Saviour, strengthen the twig at the marked points in Dead Roots and return to the first spot. For Warrior, save fifteen Death Howls for the stele in The Hidden Vale. Once the side quests are checked, finish the story for The Last Howl.

  • Compare the trophy list with your map before starting the finale.

Frequently asked questions

Are Death Howls gone for good when I die?

You can return to the marked spot and recover the currency dropped on defeat. Plan the recovery before spending the rest on cards.

Why did the enemies in the Moors return?

Resting at a Sacred Grove brings enemies back. For Uninvited Sorrows, keep the sequence going and use Oxheart to heal in battle.

Can I finish Scattered Senses as soon as I start it?

The four items are in separate maps. Accept the quest and combine the detours on a sweep once all four are accessible.
