Code Vein II features 36 trophies: 1 Platinum, 3 Gold, 20 Silver, and 12 Bronze. The platinum difficulty is rated 6/10, with an estimated 60 hours to complete. Importantly, all trophies can be unlocked in a single playthrough. The three endings unlock sequentially by continuing from the main menu after each one: "A Hero's End" (default), then "Luna Fraterna" (continue), then "Miraculous Bonds" (rescue Lou after all timeline missions). No New Game+ is needed for trophies, and you can clean up collectibles post-story via save loads.
The hardest trophy is Miraculous Bonds (requires completing all 4 Timeline Decision Missions to alter history in specific eras), though Irreplaceable (max partner affinity) is painfully grindy due to no visible progress tracker - it demands exploration, gifts, requests, and enemy farming with one partner.
General Tips:
- Focus on one partner (e.g., Noah or Josée early-game) for affinity grinding: complete their requests, give gifts (Boiled Eggs are infinite and cheap via Jadwiga crafting), explore together, and farm high-XP areas like Zenon Labs.
- Collect Hot Springs, Map Jammers (red flowers), and upgrade materials during your first playthrough.
- Use autosaves; load pre-final boss saves for cleanup after endings.
- No missables or glitched trophies reported, but back up saves for timeline missions.
Trophy Roadmap
Follow this efficient path for 100% in one run (~60 hours):
- Playthrough (40-50 hours): Complete the story to "A Hero's End" while grabbing all collectibles (Hot Springs, Map Jammers), doing all 4 Timeline Decision Missions, maxing upgrades (one each: weapon +20, Jail +20, Bequeathed Forma +5, Regen, Blood Code, Affinity), and Holly's requests for boosters. Unlock first two endings.
- Post-Story Cleanup (10 hours): After third ending, load pre-final boss save. Max any missed upgrades, farm affinity if needed, visit remaining Hot Springs/Maps.
- Platinum: Pops automatically.
