The Trophy list for the soon-to-be-released Dead Space remake are live, and let's just say that it won't be an especially easy Platinum. Without spoiling anything, most Trophies are dished out for completing story chapters and besting specific bosses — so they're all basically unmissable.
But then you dig a bit deeper, and you're looking at Trophies for beating the game on the hardest difficulty setting, and finishing up a playthrough on New Game Plus. This means that you'll have to complete the horror survival title at least twice to earn that top gong.
Things arguably get even more spicy as we make our way down the list. You'll need to own every weapon, equip every upgrade, kill 30 enemies with with each individual armament, beat the game using only the iconic Plasma Cutter, and collect every schematic. Yep, this Platinum could end up being a bit of a grind.
Do you plan on absolutely hammering Dead Space when it releases next week? Think you might try for the Plat? Shave off some limbs in the comments section below.

Holy moly.
That for sure is a tricky one.
Just wish I had the time to finish a game twice, never mind all the above haha
Sounds similar to the original trophy list. I got the plat once, I’m sure I can do it again.
This Platinum run sounds very much the same as the original on PS3, so it shouldn’t be too terrible. I’m very much looking forward to playing this and I hope it does well. I would love to see Dead Space 2 getting the same remake treatment. Not because it really needs it, but then there may be the chance to remake the 3rd and that game needs a power of help to get it to the same level of quality as the first 2!
I'm going to wait 6 month for it to go on EA play then get a months subscription to play it & then buy it to own when it's cheap
Does it include plasma cutter only again?
I honestly couldn't care less about trophies these days since devs have pretty much given up on doing anything ever so slightly creative and fun with it since the ps4 era.
Nice that they left the one gun trophy in there
I hope impossible mode is just another name to the hardest difficulty like in the first game and not the 1 save/1 death mode that you had in 2, which was simply not fun.
Seems very similar to the original minus the ng plus stuff, looking forward to this I also interested in to see clear time, they have said areas are bigger and different but how much have they removed or shortened
I like it. I believe every game should have an achievement for beating the game on the hardest difficulty. Getting a platinum should be a challenge not all that easy crappy list sony first party studios be putting up. This is one of my most anticipated games this year because I never played the original, now with this list I'm even more excited to hunt that plat
If it reviews reasonably well almost everywhere then my first playthrough like nearly always will be just normal difficulty without any playthrough guides or collectible guides. After first playthrough I'll decide whether I want to plat it or not, most likely will if really enjoying it and super into it
Someone remind me what the section was that you had to do a perfect run in order to get a trophy? I vaguely remember it had something to do with asteroids shooting. It was a pain in the back passage and stopped me from doing the platinum.
@LordAinsley says so in the article
@AFCC oh yeah, damn my bad
Awesome! Looks very close to the original PS3 list and even includes the Peng trophy while omitting the x2 trophies of 'Don't Get Cocky Kid' & 'Slugger', both of which required 50% shield strength remaining when completing a task. Just hope the one for completeing the game on Impossible mode isn't akin to DS2's hardcore mode or worse, Wolfenstein 2's Mein Leiben trophy. THAT WOULD SUUUUUCK!!!
@BusyOlf yeah was like chapter 4 or 5, very difficult section due to god awful controls, I think most people had problem was they didn't alternate left and right cannons leading to overheat==dead and or short controlled double bursts
But regardless, it was a dreadful section I've no doubt it will return, Devs probably think it's funny to make us suffer it again on permadeath
Can't wait to tackle this platinum.
I don’t usually like playing a game twice unless it’s extremely fun and the second playthrough is a care free super powered run through. So, if the NG+ makes you a beast, I could imagine running through it with just the cutter. Otherwise, probably not.
@Uromastryx that’s the one, the over heating part was infuriating. Thanks for the reminder!
I like to look in every corner, explore, find hidden stuffs and lore, figure out puzzles, complete challenges but I just hate grinding. I will buy and play the game but will pass on the plat.
I have never understood trophy and achievement hunting in games. Just play the game and enjoy the escape/experience. After all, isn't that the point?
Not platinum this one
Oh boy oh boy oh boy. DS2 next yes please. Best game of last gen imo!
Nice... A plat worth having!
@Hordak It depends on how you view trophies. I view them as no different than any other quest or mission in a game. So it's like asking "Why do you do all the quests and missions in a game, why not just play it and enjoy it". Hopefully, viewed from that angle, you can see why, at least some of us, care about trophies.
Nice! I love when these type of games (Resident Evil etc.) have a challenging Platnium. I finished REmake like 4 times to get all the trophies.
Neeh... I'm in it for the fun and grinding is anything but.
@kyleforrester87 Just get rid of the pointless MP and I'd be up for that.
Preordered the Game today on PS5. 10 minutes later my couple months old LG G2 died. No DS for me : (
More games should have trophies for beating on hardest difficulties. Too many games have platinums that don't require you to actually achieve anything.
Well impossible mode was a bitch in the original game, can't be as bad as the mofo
@grubsteak it’s the 2020s , it’s all about inclusivity
Oh no, too scary.
I love the whole series but I can't help but feel there's not really a huge market for a Dead Space game in 2023.
Hopefully I'm wrong.
Plasma cutter only? well, if the weapon is still as strong as in the original, I don't see the issue.
sounds the same as the xbox/ps3 version easy platinum
I got the Platinum on PS3. I adore the game so going for this for sure.
I won't be attaining the platinum then, don't have time to play thru a game more than once.
Definitely going to get it this time. On ps3 I was on the last boss on insane difficulty (the last trophy I needed for platinum) but I was using the scorpion suit which I downloaded from my friend but he ended up deactivating his account so it corrupted the save file, I was so mad lol
@sloggsdoggs73 I honestly thought it was easier especially shooting the asteroids
DS was my 2nd ever plat in 2013. A great achievement back then 4 me. But doing it again? No thanks On the plus side, finally a challenging trophy list again..
Impossible Mode is permadeath:
“Fans of the maximum difficulty will be able to use the Impossible Mode, in which after the death of the hero the game will start over.”

Survival Horror games are all about that 2nd or 3rd playthrough for me personally. Once that initial shock wears out, and you become OP and memorize certain things, it becomes a different kind of game mentally.
