PS5
Marathon is not a campaign to finish and clean up: each run should advance extractions, contracts, factions and seasonal levels. The main risks are spending resources without a priority and starting a long objective immediately before a reset. This roadmap separates naturally cumulative requirements from targets to plan within the active season. Success does not mean chasing every rival Runner; extracting useful resources enables later milestones.
PS5 base-game trophy roadmap. Additional trophy groups are not required for the platinum.
- Required difficulty: There is no campaign difficulty selection; run execution is what matters.
- Missable trophies: Faction and seasonal progress must be planned around resets.
- Online: The game and trophy route require online services.
Learn to leave before chasing fights
Give early runs a simple goal: reach a useful location, collect needed items and make the extraction. Dying can advance a run counter, but is not a successful exfil. Distinguish learning sessions from runs carrying valuable resources you need to retain.
- Prioritise a successful extraction when carrying useful materials.
Choose the contract before the loadout
Read the active objective and choose equipment for the required area and interaction. A collection contract should not be treated like an elimination-focused match. After returning, check delivery and reward as well: performing the action during a run and registering the contract are separate steps to verify.
- Before deploying, check the contract and the resource you must bring back.
Focus the VIP route
The list asks for a specific faction status, not small amounts of progress everywhere. Choose a reference route and check which contracts and upgrades advance it. Preserve materials for nodes leading toward capstone upgrades instead of spending them automatically whenever an option becomes available.
- Check capstone prerequisites before spending materials.
Spread cumulative goals across runs
Containers, UESC units and commanders have different counters. When a contract sends you somewhere that supports several goals, combine compatible actions without compromising extraction. For rival Runners, choose favourable situations; an avoidable death may cost resources needed for several other requirements.
- Track containers, UESC units and rival Runners separately.
Plan seasonal levels before a reset
The seasonal target requires concentrated progress: check the active calendar in the game and Bungie news. A seasonal update can change the economy and progression, so do not apply launch estimates without checking. Near a reset, evaluate a realistic target rather than waste equipment.
- Check the current reset before beginning a long progression push.

Frequently asked questions
Does a run ending in death count as an extraction?
No. The list separates completed runs from successful exfils. Check the relevant counter.
Can I ignore the season?
No. Seasonal levels and faction progress need reset awareness. Check the current calendar before planning the final stretch.
Do I only need to defeat human players?
No. The list distinguishes rival Runners from UESC units and commanders. They are separate counters and do not replace one another.
