Introduction
Welcome to The Last of Us 2 Trophy Guide (aka TLOU2 / The Last of Us Part II). There are no difficulty-related trophies and nothing missable. The trophy list consists almost entirely of Collectibles. It's impossible to unlock all upgrades in a single playthrough, some New Game+ is required. You have two options to approach this platinum: A long 1st playthrough with Collectibles, followed by a partial New Game+ speedrun for remaining upgrades. Or skip Collectibles on the 1st playthrough and get them in New Game+. The first option is faster because you only need a partial New Game+ run for the last upgrade, while the second option would require a full New Game+ playthrough. It comes down to personal preference so approach it how you like.
Step 1: Story (Very Light Difficulty) & Collectibles = 20-25 Hours
The fastest way to platinum is to get all collectibles on the first playthrough and play on the lowest difficulty "Very Light". The trophies are dead simple: just get all collectibles and the rest will come automatically along the way.
FollowThe Last of Us 2 – All-in-One Collectible Guide and you'll get all collectibles and trophies. There are no difficulty-related trophies and nothing is missable. After the story you can use chapter select to get missing collectibles. There's also a collectible tracker in chapter select. You don't need all Collectibles on the same Manual Save or in your Backpack at the same time. They only need to show as found in Chapter Select to unlock the trophies.
If you prefer, you can skip the collectibles on the 1st playthrough and do them in New Game+. In this case, make sure you get at least 30% (ideally 50%+) of the Player Upgrades & Weapon Upgrades or else you'll need a third playthrough to fully upgrade everything.
Tip to find Collectibles / Supplements / Parts more easily:
Supplements (Player Upgrades) & Parts (Weapon Upgrades) can be hard to spot and are scattered everywhere. To make these easier to see, go to Options > Accessibility > Navigation and Traversal > Enhanced Listening Mode = ON, Scan Range = 30M, Scan Time = 1S. Now you can press + in listening mode to highlight all collectibles / items in a 30 meter radius around you! Spam this everywhere you go and it'll be like a sonar pulse showing you everything nearby.
Should you still have trouble finding a Collectible, go to Options > Accessibility > Magnification and Visual Aids > High Contrast Display = Setting 1. This marks all collectibles and items in yellow color from far away and makes them super easy to see.
WARNING: Be sure to make a Manual Save in the last Chapter (Chapter 45) and DO NOT ever overwrite this save! The chapters you have available in Chapter Select are based on your last autosave. When you replay an earlier chapter, it will lock you out of chapters past your autosave. The only way around this is to reload the Manual Save from the last chapter each time, then quit to the Main Menu. Doing so updates your Autosave to the last chapter, making everything available in Chapter Select again. Example: You completed the story and go to replay Chapter 4, it will lock you out of everything past Chapter 4. But if you have a save from the end of the game, you load it and all Chapters are unlocked again.
To get missing Collectibles via Chapter Select:
- Load up the Manual Save from the Last Chapter (this unlocks all Chapters via Chapter Select).
- Quit to Main Menu (Title Screen)
- Via Chapter Select, replay the Chapter you need.
- Get your missing Collectible.
- Load your Manual Save from the Last Chapter (Chapter 45) again and repeat Steps 2-4. No need to reach the next Checkpoint or finish the Chapter. The Collectibles are saved instantly. You don't need them on the same Manual Save or in the Backpack at the same time. They just need to show up in Chapter Select to unlock the trophies.
Step 2: New Game+ to finish All Player Upgrades & Weapon Upgrades = 5-8 Hours
A single playthrough can only get you 80% of the required Supplements (Player Upgrades) & Parts (Weapon Upgrades) to fully upgrade everything. To get the missing 20% you will have to play through New Game+. At a minimum you will need 1.5 playthroughs to platinum. It's impossible to finish the upgrades any sooner than this.
If you got the collectibles in the first playthrough you can now rush through the game and skip all cutscenes. In case you ignored collectibles on the first playthrough, get them now (in this case you'll need a full 2nd playthrough).
The platinum will be yours after this step. If you missed anything you can get it via Chapter Select.

Earn all other trophies in The Last of Us 2 to unlock Platinum (DLC / Grounded Mode / Permadeath Mode not required). | ||
What I Had to Do Complete the story | ||
Simply finish the story on any difficulty. You are allowed to play on "Very Light" which is the lowest difficulty. You can also make full use of the accessibility options, such as invisibility while prone and auto-aim. The accessibility options do not void any trophy. | ||
Survival Expert Learn all player upgrades | ||
To unlock new Skill Trees you must find Training Manuals. To unlock Skills you must spend "Supplements" (Skill Points) on them. Both the Training Manuals and Supplements are collectable items throughout the game. The Supplements are just about everywhere, similar to the "Parts" you can find for Weapon Upgrades. There are 10 Skill Trees total, 2 of them are unlocked automatically throughout the story. For the other 8 you must find 8 Training Manuals (each unlocks a Skill Tree). There are more spawns of them than you need. To buy the Skills open your backpack using Touchpad and to scroll to the Skill Trees. The Training Manuals and Supplements are also part ofThe Last of Us 2 All-in-One Collectible Guide (also linked below). You must have all Upgrades at the same time for the trophy to pop and can't use Chapter Select to get missing ones. In total you need 1900 Supplements to buy all Skills. This is impossible in a single playthrough because there aren't enough Supplements. You can only finish around 80% of upgrades in a single playthrough. To fully upgrade all skills you have to do at least half a playthrough in New Game+. During the second half of New Game+ you will be able to finish the last upgrades, not sooner than that. If the Parts & Supplements stop spawning for you, it means you've fully upgraded Ellie (not a glitch). Player Upgrades:

Arms Master Fully upgrade all weapons | ||
Weapons can be upgraded at Workbenches using "Parts" (collectable items you find everywhere, similar to "Supplements" for Player Upgrades). There are 12 Weapons in total. The Weapons, Workbenches, Parts are also listed inThe Last of Us 2 All-in-One Collectible Guide (also linked below). You must have all Upgrades at the same time for the trophy to pop and can't use Chapter Select to get missing ones. In total you need 1920 Parts to fully upgrade all Weapons. This is impossible in a single playthrough because there aren't enough Parts. You can only finish around 80% of upgrades in a single playthrough. To fully upgrade all weapons you have to do at least half a playthrough in New Game+. During the second half of New Game+ you will be able to finish the last upgrades, not sooner than that. It's best to upgrade the late-game weapons first. Then on your 2nd playthrough you can upgrade the weapons that unlock earlier into the game, which means fewer chapters to replay. If the Parts & Supplements stop spawning for you, it means you've fully upgraded Ellie (not a glitch). Weapon Upgrades:

Sightseer Visit every location in downtown Seattle | ||
*Glitched Trophy* You will automatically earn this trophy by following the All-in-One Collectible Guide, because each of the locations for this trophy also contains Collectibles! If you follow the Collectible Guide, don't even worry about this trophy. Before starting, you must get the Artifact Collectible "Map of Seattle". The first opportunity to find it is in Chapter 8: The Gate. When you reach the overgrown highway at the start of Chapter 8, there's a construction trailer on the left side. It has the map in a drawer (if you miss this, it will respawn at the end of Chapter 8 in the trailer with the power generator you need to turn on). Now advance to Chapter 9: Downtown where this trophy actually takes place. Chapter 9: Downtown (Seattle Day 1) is the largest open world chapter in the game. In this chapter you will have a map that you can open at any time with Touchpad. Whenever you enter an explorable location, Ellie will circle it on the map with a blue Question Mark "?". There are 10 locations in total, you need to visit all of them for the trophy. The map below shows what the finished map should look like for the trophy to unlock (visit all 10 blue "?" Question Marks). The red numbers show the order I visited them in. The only locations I explored to have them checked off the map are Ruston Coffee (northernmost building) & Barkos Pet Store (you get the key for it from the bathroom in Ruston Coffee). Also, for the Courthouse to count you have to enter it through the window, just marking it on the map won't count. For any of the other locations going near them and having them circled on the map is enough, no need to explore them. If you still have issues with this trophy, replicate the steps from the video above.

Looks Good On You Put a hat on your companion | ||
Chapter 15: The Birthday Gift When Ellie and Joel enter the Wyoming Museum, immediately turn to the right to find a hat hanging in the gift shop area. Grab the hat and proceed to the next exhibition hall where all the dinosaur skeletons are. Put the hat on the first dinosaur skeletons on the left and right. After putting the head on both these skeletons, you can put it on Joel to unlock this trophy. If you miss it you can redo it via Chapter Select. | ||
Sharpshooter Win the marksmanship competition | ||
Chapter 24: The Stadium After you get your Semi-Auto Rifle from the armory, you can enter a shooting range on the right side (before hopping into the truck that ends the chapter). You need to get a highscore by hitting the red markers (body / head) as often as possible. If you have trouble with this, turn on Auto-Aim (Options > Controls > Assistance > Lock-On Aim = ON / Lock-On Strength = 10). Getting over 85 points should suffice. If you missed this opportunity you can replay it via Chapter Select. | ||
Put My Name Up Earn the high score in the archery game | ||
Chapter 29: Winter Visit At the start of the chapter, in the first room of the Aquarium, you can find a purple bow on the left side with a scoreboard above it. Interact with the bow to start this minigame. The highscore is 10 targets. You need to hit more than 10 before time runs out. You are allowed to move around the area freely and shoot the targets from close range. No need to do any long-shots. If you have trouble with this, turn on Auto-Aim (Options > Controls > Assistance > Lock-On Aim = ON / Lock-On Strength = 10). If you missed this you can replay it via Chapter Select. | ||
Relic of the Sages Find the Strange Artifact | ||
Chapter 28: Hostile Territory The "Strange Artifact" is an Artifact Collectible. You'll automatically get it while going for all of the Collectibles. Just follow the Collectible Guide and you won't have to worry about this. » The Last of Us 2 Collectibles Guide | ||
So Great and Small Find the Engraved Ring | ||
Chapter 9: Downtown The "Engraved Ring" is an Artifact Collectible. You'll automatically get it while going for all of the Collectibles. Just follow the Collectible Guide and you won't have to worry about this. » The Last of Us 2 Collectibles Guide |
Grounded Mode
Grounded Mode & Permadeath was added as a free update in Patch 1.04. Very simply put: play in New Game+ so you start out with more upgrades, enable all Combat Accessibility Options (especially "Invisible While Prone"). Then you can simply run > go prone > repeat. You can combine both trophies in 1 playthrough, or do 2 playthroughs to do the Permadeath run on "Very Easy". It's really easy with the Accessibility Options, not as daunting as it sounds!
Dig Two Graves Complete the story on Grounded. | ||
Grounded difficulty got added in patch 1.04 as a free update (no extra purchase required). You don't need this trophy for the platinum. It's the new highest difficulty in the game. There are two ways to approach this: you can either combine it with "You Can't Stop This" (Permadeath Mode) to get both DLC trophies in 1 playthrough (using "Per Chapter" Permadeath option), or you can do two separate playthroughs to make it easier (but this may take longer). Also be sure to do this in New Game+ after having finished the story at least once so you start out with upgrades and get access to all of Ellie's weapons in Chapter 9: Downtown. Regardless of how you approach it, here are the key things you have to know:
| ||
You Can't Stop This Complete the story with any Permadeath setting. | ||
Permadeath got added in patch 1.04 as a free update (no extra purchase required). You don't need this trophy for the platinum. You can pick from 3 options "Per Chapter" (respawn at start of chapter if you die), "Per Act" (respawn at start of act if you die), "Whole Game" (respawn at the very beginning of the prologue if you die). The "Per Chapter" option is the easiest because you lose the least progress in case of dying. For the purpose of the trophy it doesn't matter which of the 3 options you choose, so go with "Per Chapter". The difficulty setting doesn't matter either, you can play on "Very Easy" for this trophy! There are two ways to approach this: you can either combine it with "Dig Two Graves" (Grounded Difficulty) to get both DLC trophies in 1 playthrough, or you can do two separate playthroughs doing one on "Very Easy" with the "Per Chapter Permadeath" enabled. Also be sure to do this in New Game+ after having finished the story at least once so you start out with upgrades and get access to all of Ellie's weapons in Chapter 9: Downtown. If you combine this with Grounded Mode, refer to "Dig Two Graves" above for tips. The most important thing is enabling Accessibility > Combat Accessibility > Invisible While Prone. Using Accessibility options is allowed and doesn't void any trophies. You can also back up & restore your save to make things easier. Follow these steps:
It's a bit of extra work but can save you from additional replay time, especially for difficult encounters late into the chapter. |
