The Last Case of Benedict Fox: Definitive Edition PS5 platinum guide

The Last Case of Benedict Fox: Definitive Edition

PS5

Explore both Limbos by alternating movement powers and the Conundrum Device tools. Before crossing the final passage, buy every tattoo, play the records and check the blacksmith’s items. For the platinum, watch every story cutscene, including the one after the credits.

33 trophies in the PS5 Definitive Edition. The original 2023 release on other platforms has some route differences.

  • List: 33 trophies in the PS5 Definitive Edition.
  • Cutscenes: Do not skip any cutscene and wait for the epilogue.
  • Before the ending: Finish tattoos and purchases while vendors are still available.

Secure ink before travelling

In the first Limbo, fight the enemies you encounter and register anchors rather than running straight to the next objective. Unsecured ink can be lost when fast travelling; bank it at the anchor before leaving. Once you rescue the tattooist, prioritize powers that open routes and alternate between both Limbos when you reach a roadblock.

  • Do not hold the cutscene skip control, even during the tutorial.

Track device notes and Kogai doors

Bring the Conundrum Device parts to the blacksmith and track notes separately from unlocked functions; they are different objectives. In James’s Limbo, look for sparkles on the platforms, and in Marie’s, inspect the numeric door near the garden entrance. Once you have the Kogai pin, revisit marked doors and solve the seven-element door as well.

  • Check both What the author had in mind and Now we can work before leaving the workshop.

Open chests after clearing camps

When you find a camp, clear its enemy groups and then look for the locked chest; winning the fight alone does not mark the camp complete. Check for camps that appear after you resolve earlier ones. For anchors, return to areas with marked passages, including the floor you can dive through with the Companion.

  • After the camp near Forgotten Cliff, check the trophy before teleporting away.

Finish records and upgrades before the point of no return

Take the records to the manor gramophone and play them all; holding them in the inventory does not count as listening. After the Mirage anchor, go back to check the tattooist and blacksmith before crossing the warning. If you are short on ink, revisit uncleared Limbo sectors and fight remaining enemies, then bank it.

  • Buy every tattoo before advancing the finale; the tattooist does not stay available.

Face Tomás and stay after the credits

After the point of no return, register the final anchor and continue to Tomás. In the spear phase, watch for the gold spear: catch it with the shield and strike it while open to send it back. Once the fight is over, do not quit at the credits; the last scene is needed for the cutscene trophy.

  • Check for You can't make me! only after the post-credits scene ends.

Frequently asked questions

Does difficulty restrict trophies?

The route does not require a specific difficulty. If you get lost, use exploration settings to locate incomplete areas more easily.

Can I use an original-edition walkthrough?

It can help with mechanics, but cross-check against the Definitive Edition; anchor names, access timing and ink amounts can differ.

Must I play the records or just find them?

Play them at the gramophone. If Connoisseur does not unlock, play each one to the end before the point of no return.
