Road 96: PS4 and PS5 Platinum Trophy Guide

Road 96

PS4 / PS5

Road 96 changes the stops along each trip, so a fixed scene order is of limited use. Track your tapes and slow down at three places that matter: the trailer park, phone booths and the cave before the border. Reaching the story ending does not automatically award the trophies tied to those interactions.

Original game, with native PS4 and PS5 sets. Prequel Road 96: Mile 0 has its own trophies.

  • Native sets: PS4 and PS5, 12 trophies each.
  • Mode: Entirely single-player.
  • Tapes: 18 recordings; the total carries into New Game Plus.

Stop at the waterfall

During the early trips, enter the cave behind the waterfall before continuing to the border. Add a rock to the cairn each time you arrive with a different runaway. Do it on three visits: one traveler cannot add all three rocks, and the cairn is no longer usable on the last trip.

  • Mark each rock down before leaving the cave.

Do both trailer park interactions

When you meet Zoe at the trailer park, speak to the woman in the rocking chair and pet the cat on her lap. Later, when the conversation moves to the campfire, look at the embers and choose to blow. They are separate actions: meeting Zoe does not complete either one.

  • Check the cat before moving on and the fire during the night scene.

Set money aside for a phone booth

Save at least 12 in-game dollars to call home and make a donation at the same stop. Choose the home call from the booth menu, then dial 96777 for Florres or 96555 for Tyrak and confirm the ten-dollar donation. Dialing the campaign number alone is not enough.

  • When you find a booth, make both calls before spending your money elsewhere.

Look for tapes along the way

Check the seats, tape player and glove compartment before leaving a vehicle. In Jarod’s taxi, check the front passenger seat when he steps out; in Sonya’s limo, inspect the cushion. Accept recordings people offer you and consider buying tapes once you have the money for the phone calls.

  • Use the collection menu rather than trying to remember every pickup.

Help Zoe and finish the missing trophies

When Zoe is cuffed near the gas station, find a distraction for the officers and get to their table. The van keys let you look for the handcuff keys inside. Finish the trips, then use New Game Plus on the same save profile if you still need tapes. If you missed the cairn trophy, place rocks on the early visits.

  • Verify that you have all 18 tapes before you stop looking.

Frequently asked questions

Do I need all tapes in one playthrough?

No. New Game Plus keeps the tapes. The scenes vary, so check vehicles and characters you did not encounter on the previous trip.

Does the border decision change Hard Choice?

Either answer to the final choice with Zoe can award the trophy. Rescuing her at the gas station is a separate requirement.

Do any trophies depend on servers?

No. Calls, tapes and border crossings are all actions inside the single-player story.
