Psychonauts 2 Platinum Guide (PS4)

Psychonauts 2

PS4

You do not need to clear every mind on its first visit. Story powers open routes that were previously out of reach. Prioritise meeting Milla in her office instead and keep real-world side quests separate from the collections inside minds.

Two PS4 lists of the same edition. On PS5 you play the PS4 version through backwards compatibility.

  • List: 58 PS4 trophies, no multiplayer.
  • Rank target: Rank 100 for the trophy; the listed upgrades are also required.
  • Updated cleanup: Otto-Spot and Otto’s challenge after the story.

Visit Milla before the story ends

When you can explore the Motherlobe, find Milla’s office and talk to her for the unlock. Do not count on finding her in the same place after the main events. In the first minds, collect what is easy to reach and only note areas blocked by a power or entrance.

  • Verify the conversation trophy before leaving the office.

Turn in the real-world side quests

Help Dion, look for Queepie, finish Lili’s request and take on Gisu’s devices. Do not stop after finding the last item; return to the quest giver to close the job. Prioritise Gisu’s quest, because in the updated game it also opens the laboratory combat cleanup.

  • Check that all four quests have awarded their trophy.

Revisit minds with the Otto-Spot filter

After the ending, get Otto’s camera if you missed it and purchase Otto-Spot at an Otto-Matic. Use the filter for nearby objects and the viewer to recognise the shapes of missing Figments. For emotional baggage, match the tag to its container instead of counting it alongside vaults.

  • Verify figments, baggage and vaults in every mind.

Finish upgrades, pins and filters

Use cards with a core at an Otto-Matic and check your rank after each group of collectibles. Buy the Astral Wallet first; Nest Egg requires filling it, so check your balance before spending on pins. Track camera filters and healing-item capacity upgrades separately.

  • Compare rank 100 with the actual purchases still missing.

Clean up combat actions and gramophones

In the updated version, after Gisu’s quest you find another Psychoseismometer in Otto’s lab. Use it to see enemies such as Panic Attack again if story encounters are exhausted. For Make It Stop!, revisit Fatherland Follies and break all three gramophones; it is not a combat counter.

  • Check the enemy actions and the three targets inside the mind separately.

Frequently asked questions

Is there a separate PS5 list?

No. Double Fine identifies PS5 play as PS4 backwards compatibility.

Must I complete each mind on its first visit?

No. Revisit from the Collective Unconscious after obtaining the relevant powers and tools.

Can I replay enemy encounters after the story?

The update adds a replayable fight in Otto’s lab after Gisu’s quest. It does not replace the conversation in Milla’s office.
