Resonance Trophy Guide and Platinum Roadmap
Earn the Resonance Platinum in one playthrough: this trophy guide covers all 37 trophies, Like a Warrior, Chapter Select and combat cleanup steps.
On this page+
You can earn every Resonance trophy in one playthrough, but Like a Warrior needs 165 Resonance Points in that same save. Play normally while collecting points, then use Chapter Select to clean up ordinary collectibles and combat objectives. Difficulty does not block trophies, so Narrative is a valid option if a late encounter is slowing down the run.
Trophy roadmap at a glance
The PlayStation list has 37 trophies: one Platinum, five Gold, nine Silver, and 22 Bronze. Steam has 36 achievements because the Platinum itself is a PlayStation-only reward. There are no online trophies, no New Game+ requirement, and the campaign is made of 14 linear chapters.
| Roadmap fact | What it means for your run |
|---|---|
| Minimum playthroughs | One, if you protect the Resonance Point total. |
| Difficulty trophies | None; change difficulty whenever a fight stops progress. |
| Missable trophy | Like a Warrior, because points do not carry through Chapter Select. |
| Post-story cleanup | Blades, Artefacts, Charms, Echoes, and combat tasks. |
| Platinum target | Earn every other PlayStation trophy first. |
The important distinction is between a missable pickup and a missable completion state. Normal collectibles can still count when found through Chapter Select, so a missed chest is inconvenient rather than fatal. Like a Warrior is different because its mastery purchases depend on points collected during one forward-moving playthrough.
Step 1: play the story and protect Resonance Points
Use the first run to learn combat, follow the main objectives, and collect the white-glint Resonance Points you see on optional paths. You need 165 out of 200 to buy every mastery-branch skill, so you may miss 35 without losing the trophy. Checkpoints matter: if Sophia dies before reaching the next checkpoint, collect any point from that stretch again.
Avoid using Chapter Select to patch a low point total after you have moved deeper into the campaign. Replaying an earlier chapter restores the point state recorded for that point in the story instead of adding a new point to your later progress. If you miss a large number in one chapter, restart it promptly while your current progression is still close to that chapter.
Spend points with the final requirement in mind. There are six mastery branches and each must be fully purchased for Like a Warrior, not merely opened with its first skill. The Resonance Points guide explains the 165-point total and the menu check in more detail.
Step 2: collect ordinary items as you explore
Blades, Artefacts, Charms, and Theseus Echoes are worth taking during the story because their routes often teach you how a room works. However, none of these standard categories needs to force a full chapter restart. Chapter Select displays the normal collection counters, allowing a targeted return once you know exactly what is missing.
The full checklist is 8 Blades, 37 Artefacts, and 30 Charms. Five Theseus Echoes are included within the Charm total and also satisfy their own trophy. Read the collectibles guide for the chapter-by-chapter counts before beginning a late-game cleanup session.
Step 3: clean up combat trophies with Chapter Select
After the story, pick a chapter with a convenient checkpoint and a reliable enemy group. Combat trophies can be attempted repeatedly by restarting a checkpoint, which removes the pressure to force them during a first encounter. This is the right time to practise parries, throws, critical strikes, and kills with each blade.
Untouchable asks for six successful parries in a row, so attempt it against attacks whose timing you can read rather than in a crowded arena. Adaptable needs one kill with each required blade; equip a blade from Sophia's menu, get the kill, then switch weapons before repeating. For tasks involving throwables or ledges, choose a room with several ordinary enemies and reset if the setup goes wrong.
The one missable trophy: Like a Warrior
Like a Warrior unlocks when all six mastery branches are fully purchased. The purchases cost 165 Resonance Points in total, while the game contains 200, giving you a 35-point buffer. The trophy is missable only because collected points do not carry into a Chapter Select replay and are not shown in that mode's chapter tracker.
Keep your point total visible in Sophia's Artefacts area and revisit the skills screen occasionally, rather than waiting until the final chapter to learn you are short. Do not assume that a completed Chapter Select chapter has repaired the total; it has not. If you reach 165 before the ending, you have secured the important requirement and can treat later points as optional.
Collection trophies and what they require
Hoarder requires all 37 Artefacts, which the game also calls Relics. Plunderer requires the eight standard Blades from Heroes' Graves; the pre-order Hero's Blade is extra and is not needed. Superstitious requires all 30 Charms, while In the Name of My Kin comes from the five Theseus Echoes included among those Charms.
These trophies are ideal for post-story cleanup because the menu and Chapter Select counters identify the chapter that needs attention. Find the item, return to the main menu once it registers, and move to the next gap rather than replaying a chapter from start to finish. The collectibles checklist groups the expected counts by chapter to make that route faster.
Difficulty, saves, and Chapter Select
Difficulty does not alter the trophy list, and the game allows it to be changed during play. Narrative difficulty and accessibility options are therefore legitimate ways to make a difficult combat encounter manageable. Puzzle solutions still need the right interaction sequence, so lowering combat difficulty will not open a door or replace a missing environmental step.
The game is linear rather than free-roam, but Chapter Select is available for ordinary cleanup. It is useful for missed Blades, Artefacts, Charms, Theseus Echoes, and combat objectives. Use it carefully around points: loading a prior chapter changes the point state to that chapter's saved state, which is why the point goal belongs in the first run.
Before you chase the Platinum
Before the final chapters, confirm that you are steadily collecting points and that every mastery branch can eventually be completed. After the story, compare the collection counters, equip every required blade for Adaptable, and select an easy combat checkpoint for any unfinished challenge. The Platinum, The Sea Scorpion, unlocks after every other PlayStation trophy is earned.
For a less spoiler-heavy route, use the central walkthrough for story progress and open this roadmap only when a completion decision is needed. The Chapter 4 walkthrough is especially useful early on because that chapter combines several Trial puzzles, a Blade, and optional exploration. Trophy rules, point requirements, and platform totals were reviewed for the launch build on September 10, 2026.
