50 PS4 trophies. From a new game, Scrap Crew challenges block the platinum; this page preserves the historical route.

Watch the Guerranera video

Check Up to the Task first

Before pursuing full completion, check A Penny Saved and Dividend among the non-repeating challenges. Warner Bros confirms they relied on disabled Scrap Crew collection. Normal gameplay in a new save cannot complete them. The video remains a reference for the original route, not a solution to the closure.

  • Up to the Task · Complete all non-repeating challenges
  • Halls of Valhalla · Earn all Trophies

Finish the story and Wasteland missions

Complete five acts and every Wasteland Mission, with a reminder for Dinki-Di. Road Warrior legend rank and fully upgrading Max are separate checks. After act five, review missions, rank and equipment individually.

  • Wasteland of Opportunities · Complete Act 02
  • Digging a Deeper Hole · Complete Act 03
  • Power in the Machine · Complete Act 04
  • Downward Spiral Reawakening · Complete Act 05
  • Slight Distraction · Complete the Dinki-Di Wasteland Mission
  • Stop and Smell the Roses · Complete all Wasteland Missions
  • Golden Boy · Reach a new legend rank
  • Road Warrior · Reach Road Warrior legend rank
  • Maximum · Fully upgrade Max

Reduce threats and complete projects

Jeet, Gutgash and Pink Eye each require zero threat in their territories. Combine camps and optional objectives with scarecrows, snipers and minefields. Two stronghold projects only meet an early milestone; The Constructionist requires all projects in all strongholds.

  • Start of Something Good · Clear all threat in Jeet's territory
  • Keep Up the Good Work · Clear all threat in Gutgash's territory
  • Spreading the Word · Clear all threat in Pink Eye's territory
  • Jeet Thrives · Reduce threat to 0 in the Balefire Flatland region around Jeet's Stronghold

  • Sniper Suppressor · Take out all Scrotus snipers

Organise Archangels and Death Runs

For each Archangel, track race completion, legendary time and an enemy vehicle defeated as three separate conditions. Complete a race at every location and try Time Bomb, Scatter and Barrel Bash. Before replaying, check that the selected car is the missing Archangel.

  • The Quick Driver · Complete a Time Bomb Death Run
  • The Smart Driver · Complete a Scatter Death Run
  • The Skilled Driver · Complete a Barrel Bash Death Run
  • Running Wild · Complete at least one race at every Death Run Location
  • The Saint · Complete a Death Run in an Archangel
  • The Guardian · Successfully complete a Death Run with every Archangel
  • The Messenger · Complete a Death Run in legendary time with every Archangel
  • The Exiled · Defeat an enemy vehicle with every Archangel

Finish relics, loot and driving challenges

Separate History Relics, ornaments and scavenging locations. The 5,000 and 10,000 scrap requirements mean holding those amounts at once, so delay spending when close. Finish lookout balloons, paint colours and engines, then specific actions such as giving water to a wanderer or landing alive after four seconds airborne.

  • Daddy Wants a New Grill · Collect all hood ornaments
  • A Thousand Words · Collect all History Relics
  • Quench Their Thirst · Give water to a wanderer
  • Fresh Air · Drive the Magnum Opus off a Wasteland jump
  • Maximum Air · Be airborne in a vehicle for 4 seconds or more and land without dying
  • Just Rewards · Have 5,000 scrap in your inventory
  • Scrap Collector · Have 10,000 scrap in your inventory
  • On the Road to Nowhere · Travel 1300 car lengths in a vehicle
  • Wasteland Chef · Eat a meal of maggots
  • Up, Up and Away · Fly the balloon at every Vantage Outpost

  • Blockhead · Own the best V6 and V8 Engines
  • Just Walk Away · Travel 650 car lengths on foot
  • Looked Everywhere · Loot all Scavenging Locations

Source and scope

Editorial roadmap accompanying Guerranera's video, based on the author's published description and references and checked against the trophy archive. It is not a full transcript of the narration. Additional sources are listed under Additional references.

  • Since 31 October 2020, Scrap Crews no longer collect resources, blocking A Penny Saved and Dividend.
  • With an old save, check whether those two challenges were already completed. The rest of this guide does not remove that block.
