PS5
Split Senua’s journey in two. On the first run, learn arenas and check walls before entering one-way areas; on the second, keep the Dark Rot route short. Collectible trophies can be cleaned up from chapter select on the normal run.
13-trophy PS5 Enhanced list. Dark Rot Complete is an added PlayStation requirement compared with the original Xbox list.
- Lists: 13 native PS5 trophies.
- Collections: 18 Lorestangir and 17 faces with hidden paths.
- Dark Rot: Unlocks after the first ending; deaths build up the rot.
Learn the route in the first campaign
Finish chapters at a difficulty that lets you read attacks. Learn which hits you can parry and which to evade, especially in chained encounters. Note spots where you fell or lost the rhythm and practise them through chapter select before starting Dark Rot.
- Verify the ending and that Dark Rot is available.
Activate every Lorestangir
Look for large wooden totems with a glyph and hold focus until the game confirms collection. If one is missing, compare the ring markers with the chapter summary; you can locate the unfinished section without replaying the story. Do not confuse them with trees behind hidden faces.
- Reach 18 before the Dark Rot run.
Open the passage behind each face
Check rocks that seem to have eyes and a mouth, especially at the sides of the route. Focus on the shape to open a path, then follow it to the reward. Merely seeing a face does not count. Check the chapter counter before moving on.
- Finish all 17 faces separately from the totems.
Use an alternate narrator and photo mode
Open photo mode once during the normal campaign. After the ending, start a chapter with an alternate narrator instead of just highlighting it in the menu. Neither trophy needs a published photograph, and you can finish both while recovering a totem or face.
- Verify the unlocks before changing modes.
Finish a second run in Dark Rot
Start Dark Rot only after learning the main fights. Avoid detours for collections you already finished and defend before seeking one more hit. Deaths advance the rot; the PS5 walkthrough documents loss of the run on the fourth. If uncertain about a fight, practise it outside this run.
- Finish the full story without losing the run.
