PS5
The Midnight Walk platinum centres on discovery: four collections, two outcomes and small interactions that story progression alone will not cover. Learn Potboy’s journey first, then use chapter selection for cleanup. The PS5 version is playable on a screen without a headset. Treat Housy as the place to audit collected items, rather than merely an intermission.
Base-game roadmap for PS5. Individual stack requirements remain available on the game page.
- Required difficulty: No specific difficulty setting is required.
- Missable trophies: Chapter selection supports collectible and optional-action cleanup.
- Online: The route is offline single player; PS VR2 is optional.
Learn the initial route through the flame
Follow the story and learn when to hide, distract creatures or help Potboy, rather than forcing a trophy attempt into every encounter. Inspect side spaces when safe before leaving. Record chapters containing missed items and continue; later chapter selection makes a precise note more useful than restarting the adventure for one collectible.
- Record the chapter and collection family you left unfinished.
Track all four collectible families separately
Clay figures, Shellphones, records and Murkle story pieces contribute to four different trophies. One category cannot replace another even when both are displayed in Housy. Check empty spaces after a session and revisit the relevant chapter. Compare any external total with the collection shown by the updated game instead of relying on a single written count.
- Audit each collection in Housy before revisiting chapters.
Spend a deliberate visit in Housy
Home Is Where The Heart Is requires ten minutes at home; do not count ordinary loading transitions as that visit. Use the story menu’s Housy visit and remain there, listening to records or checking collected objects. The goal concerns time in the right location, not speed or clearing every room.
- Remain in Housy for the required duration and verify the unlock.
Attempt eye and encounter interactions deliberately
Shadow Work concerns closing your eyes, not merely standing in a dark room. Separate that action from Mind Over Body and Face Your Fears, which need specific encounters. If a random interaction fails, revisit the appropriate chapter and prepare its action rather than assuming every monster or statue sequence is interchangeable.
- Use the eye-closing control and separate encounter-specific actions.
Revisit the ending and finish the collection audit
Burn Out and Fade Away represent different conclusions. After the first, revisit the final available point through chapter selection, take the other outcome and verify its registration. Then check all four collection trophies. Seeing both endings does not automatically recover a figure or page that was never collected.
- Verify both outcomes and every collectible group.

Frequently asked questions
Does the platinum require PS VR2?
No. The PS5 version also supports screen play. Choose either format while tracking the same collections and optional actions.
Does a missed collectible require restarting?
Chapter selection revisits the journey. Identify the incomplete collection in Housy first, then return to the relevant chapter instead of replaying everything.
Must I replay the story for the second ending?
Use the available final chapter to see the other conclusion. Verify its trophy and handle collection cleanup separately.
