Trophy List of Sekiro Shadows Die Twice Sekiro guide, walkthrough

Last update: 11 April 2019

This section is an extensive trophy tutorial for Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice. This tutorial fully covers the unlocking of all achievements and is complete with the author's notes.

This page contains spoilers for the available endings and bosses. These spoilers appear both in our commentaries and the official trophy/achievement names.

Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice Trophies - General Information

  1. Sekiro offers 34 trophies - 18 bronze, 11 silver, 4 gold, and 1 platinum. The platinum is only available in the PlayStation 4 version.
  2. The largest group of achievements focuses on defeating bosses. It should be noted that among them are both the mandatory and the optional bosses. You have to kill numerous challenging bosses - getting some of the trophies/achievements related to them may be difficult.
  3. To get the full set of trophies, you need to develop your character as much as possible. This means, among other things, the need to fully improve all tools, prostheses, unlock all skills and combat techniques, and requires significant development of the health and posture bars.
  4. Four achievements are related to the four endings of Sekiro. You will need to unlock and complete all of them. It is possible to get all the endings during a single playthrough but this will require backup save files done at certain moments of the story. More information on how to make save backups in the Endings chapter.
