Cyberpunk 2077 is a massive sci-fi RPG that puts players in the shoes of V, a gun-for-hire in the corporation-run corrupted metropolis of Night City. Players can completely customize V’s appearance and skill set and choose from three different backgrounds before becoming one of the many criminals in the city. That is until he gets the code of the infamous eco-terrorist Johnny Silverhand downloaded into his head. Not only does this make him the target of some of the largest corporations ever known, but it also lets V and the player hang out with Keanu Reeves, which is pretty great.

If that sounds good to you, you may want to check out Cyberpunk 2077 and try to nab its platinum trophy.

Key Info Up Front:

Genre: First-Person Shooter RPG

Difficulty: 6

Number of playthroughs required: 1

Time to complete: 60-80

Number of Trophies: 45

Percentage of players with Platinum: 11.67%

Getting Started

You can customize them to your heart’s content when making your own V. A female or male V is fully capable of getting the platinum trophy, and their appearance or lifepath will not have any impact on your completion either. However, right from the start, you will want to start holding off on spending any attribute points or spending any money on customization items so that you can use both towards other achievements without having to do multiple playthroughs. Cyberpunk 2077 still has several bugs as well, so you should keep various save files going throughout your playthrough as some side quests with trophies can get bugged and prevent you from completing them.

Trophies for Story Missions

While playing through the main storyline of Cyberpunk 2077, you will unlock a decent number of trophies just for completing some of the missions throughout. These trophies will unlock for every player who finishes the game, so you don’t have to pay them any attention or worry about how to unlock them.

The Fool

Rarity: Bronze

Average Percentage Achieved: 94.93%

Missable: No

Difficulty: 1

This trophy is unlocked by completing the prologue at the start of Cyberpunk 2077.

This trophy is unlocked by finishing the mission The Heist.

The Hermit

The High Priestess

Difficulty: 3

You can unlock this trophy by playing through the mission Search and destroy.

The World

Rarity: Gold

Average Percentage Achieved: 33.08%

Missable: No

Difficulty: 4

You are rewarded this trophy for completing the game with any ending.

While you play through the game’s main storyline, however, there are two missable trophies that you should make sure you get to avoid having to do an entire second playthrough.

The Devil

Rarity: Silver

Average Percentage Achieved: 15.13%

Missable: Yes

Difficulty: 5

During the mission Search and Destroy, you have to complete the hidden objective of saving Takemura. You can do this after you are attacked by Arasaka forces, get control back of V and escape from the building. Before you do, there is a hole behind a desk to your left that you need to crawl through.

Follow the path that the hole leads you to and kill all of the enemies you come across. Eventually, you will reach Takemura, who you can escort out of the building to finish the mission. Then, when you start the final task Nocturne OP55N1 and are talking with Johnny on the rooftop, select the dialogue option that says, “Think trust Arasaka’s risky but worth it.” Then, you should unlock your trophy once the cutscene is over.

Stanislavski’s Method

Rarity: Gold

Average Percentage Achieved: 51.79%

Missable: Yes

Difficulty: 3

This missable trophy has to be worked on throughout your playthrough but is pretty easy to get. You unlock it by using dialogue options only ten times your life path. The trophy should pop easily as long as you pick those options every time you see one.

Side Missions

There are also trophies earned by playing through some of the side storylines for characters like Judy and Panam. You can do these storylines at any time but need to do them to unlock some of the various endings, so you have to get these out of the way before checking off all three of the other ending trophies besides The Devil.

To Protect and Serve

Rarity: Bronze

Average Percentage Achieved: 29.34%

Missable: Yes

Difficulty: 4

To earn this trophy, make sure that you scan clues during the mission The Hunt. You should do this naturally as part of the mission, but it is technically possible to miss it and then block yourself from unlocking this trophy. The trophy itself is for completing three tasks titled I Fought the Law, The Hunt, and Following the River. You can start the story when you receive a call from Elizabeth Peralez, who asks you to help investigate a crime for her and her husband. The trophy itself is unlocked after you complete the third mission.

To Bad Decisions!

Rarity: Bronze

Average Percentage Achieved: 20.41%

Missable: Yes

Difficulty: 4

You can unlock this trophy for completing the missions Holdin’ On, Second Conflict, A Like Supreme, Rebel! Rebel!, I Don’t want to Hear It, Off the Leash, and Boat Drinks. However, those missions are only available after you earn the Bushido and Chill trophy, further down on this list. This trophy is also missable if you fail the mission, Rebel! Rebel!, so make sure that when you get out of the car to go drinking, you don’t get back in the car and leave.

Judy vs Night City

Rarity: Bronze

Average Percentage Achieved: 30.65%

Missable: Yes

Difficulty: 3

You unlock this trophy by completing the missions Both Sides, Now, Ex-Factor, Talkin’ Bout A Revolution, Pisces, and Pyramid Song that make up the side storyline for Judy. Completing the missions is straightforward, but the trophy will not be unlocked if you accept the offer proposed by Maiko during the mission Pisces.

Life on the Road

Rarity: Bronze

Average Percentage Achieved: 37.07%

Missable: Yes

Difficulty: 4

This trophy is for players who complete the storyline of Panam Palmer. To do so, you complete the missions Riders On The Storm, With a Little Help from My Friends, and Queen of the Highway. However, once you get the mission Riders On The Storm, you only have 24 hours to meet Panam to complete the mission; otherwise, it will fail, locking you out of the trophy.

Bushido and Chill

Rarity: Bronze

Average Percentage Achieved: 31.49%

Missable: Yes

Difficulty: 4

You unlock this trophy by completing the mission Blistering Love. To unlock the mission, you have to complete Chippin In and befriend Johnny while you visit his grave. To do these, choose these dialogue options:

• Let’s do something about that
• The guy who Saved My Life
• Nah, f*cked that up too
• What do you want from me?
• OK. But as second chances go, this your last
• You were a real d*ck in the beginning
• When you said you let down your friends…
• Smasher biz really got to her
• Yeah, I’ll call Rogue After

Then, call Rogue to complete the mission and unlock the trophy.

The Endings

After you wrap up all of the mandatory side missions, you can get the three remaining trophies for each of the game’s various endings. Luckily, once you complete Cyberpunk 2077 it lets you repeat the last mission as many times as you want to see all the options, so they all can be earned in just one playthrough.

The Star

Rarity: Silver

Average Percentage Achieved: 23.14%

Missable: Yes

Difficulty: 4

This trophy can only be unlocked after completing Panam’s storyline before starting Nocturne OP55N1. Once you get to the rooftop and talk to Johnny you have to pick the following dialogue options:

• Goodbyes – not my style
• Gonna ask Panam for help
• Take omega blockers
• [Stand] and Call Panam

Then just play through the mission until you talk to Alt and Johnny and pick the dialogue option that says, “Wanna live out whatever life I got left.” To get the trophy, the last thing you have to do is just enter the Well and return to your body.

The Sun

Rarity: Silver

Average Percentage Achieved: 19.60%

Missable: Yes

Difficulty: 4

This trophy can only be gotten if you’ve finished Rogue’s storyline before starting Nocturne OP55N1. For this trophy you need to select two dialogue options while talking to Johnny on the roof, starting with “Think you and Rogue should go” followed by “Take Pseudoendotrizine.” Then, when you speak with Alt and V towards the end of the mission, pick the dialogue option “Goin’ with Alt, you live on.”

Temperance

Rarity: Silver

Average Percentage Achieved: 19.38%

Missable: Yes

Difficulty: 4

This trophy is another one that requires you to have completed Panam’s storyline before starting Nocturne OP55N1 again. Then once you’re talking to Johnny on the roof select these dialogue options:

• Goodbyes – not my style
• Gonna ask Panam fr help
• Take omega blockers
• [Stand] and Call Panam

You can then play through the mission as usual until you speak with Alt and Johnny. When you do, select the dialogue option “Body’s Johhny’s. I’ll go.” You then just have to cross the bridge and enter Cyberspace forever.

Attribute Trophies

To get the three attribute trophies you’ll want to wait until you have 17 attribute points stocked up and then make sure you create a manual save. This will allow you to spend the attribute points where you need to unlock the trophy and then reload the save to do it again for one of the other trophies. This way, once you have all of them unlocked, you can also reload one last time to spend them on a build you are interested in.

Master Crafter

Rarity: Bronze

Average Percentage Achieved: 21.62%

Missable: Yes

Difficulty: 4

To unlock this trophy, you have to craft three items of Legendary rarity. To do so, you need to get the Technical ability of 18 before purchasing the Technical perks True Craftsman, Grease Monkey, Tune-Up, and Edgerunner. At that point, you simply need a lot of uncommon items that are best found by disassembling weapons you don’t want to use during your playthrough. You can then continuously upgrade them until you create the 3 Legendary items.

Ten out of Ten

Rarity: Bronze

Average Percentage Achieved: 14.72%

Missable: Yes

Difficulty: 6

This trophy is unlocked when you reach the max level in any skill. To do so, you need to have any attribute up to level 20. Once you have an attribute to level 20 you then have to max out one of its associated skills. If you have problems doing this, and exploit requires you to purchase a Moore Tech Berzerk MK.2 as your operating system. Then get your Body up to level 20, activate Berzerk while you’re running, and go into a slide. Then, pause the game mid-slide with the touchpad to take you directly to the map, which will level up your Atheltic skill.

V for Vendetta

Rarity: Bronze

Average Percentage Achieved: 14.97%

Missable: Yes

Difficulty: 6

To get this trophy, you have to buy the implant called Second Heart for your Circulatory System Cyberware, which costs 42,000 eurodollars and requires you to have 16 points in Body and a street cred level of 49. Then, find a group of enemies and leave only one alive, possibly while getting their health down extremely low by using a weapon your build doesn’t typically use. Then, let them kill you, which will trigger your revival by the Second Heart and allow you to kill them to get the trophy quickly.

Combat and Collectible Trophies

Finally, there are the trophies that can be unlocked during combat throughout the game and track down all of the various collectibles in the game. To make getting these trophies easier, you’ll want to work on them as much as possible as you play through the game so that you don’t have to track down enemies after having a lot of Cyberpunk 2077’s content already finished up.
