Assassin's Creed Black Flag Resynced has 50 trophies on PS5: one Platinum, one Gold, eleven Silver and thirty-seven Bronze, all of them offline, none missable and none tied to difficulty. PowerPyx rates the Platinum 3.5 out of 10 and estimates 40 to 50 hours across a single playthrough, split into the story, a long collectible stage and a short cleanup. The trophies that cause real trouble are the luck-based Last to Leave, the Art Piece grind for Dilettante, and the naval set of Ship This, King of the Castle and Devil of the Caribbean. This roadmap covers all of them as of November 2026, including what changed with the October update.
We checked this against PowerPyx's trophy roadmap and Legendary Ship guide, VGC's Kenway's Fleet guide, and Ubisoft's launch and Title Update 1.0.8 posts in November 2026. Where trophy guides disagree, we note it.
Trophy Overview: Count, Difficulty and Time
PowerPyx lists 50 trophies with a breakdown of 1 Platinum, 1 Gold, 11 Silver and 37 Bronze, 50 offline and 0 online. Some other guides count 49, which matches the achievement list on Xbox and PC, where there is no Platinum. On PlayStation the remake is a PS5 game only, so there is no PS4 version to auto-pop trophies from, no save transfer from an older version and no cross-buy stack.
The difficulty rating of 3.5 out of 10 reflects how forgiving the list is. There are no missable trophies, no glitched trophies reported by PowerPyx, and no trophies tied to difficulty, so you can play every part of the game on the easiest setting. The remake splits difficulty into separate Combat, Stealth, Naval and Activities settings, which makes it easy to lower only the part of the game that is slowing you down.

Step One: Story and the Luck-Based Trophies
PowerPyx's first stage is the story, around 15 to 20 hours, and it recommends starting the luck-based trophies here rather than leaving them for the end. Three stand out. Last to Leave asks you to sit in a chair during a Burning Ship event, which PowerPyx estimates at roughly a 5% chance per event, and it suggests a save-and-reload approach to find one. The Hangman needs 10 enemies hanged with a rope from tree branches or wooden beams. Dilettante needs every Art Collection and equipment slot in the Great Inagua manor filled, and the Art Pieces come as random drops from Brig Piracy missions in Kenway's Fleet.
That last one is why the fleet matters from the moment it unlocks. VGC's fleet guide notes that Brigs are the ships that run Piracy missions, so keep several Brigs sailing all game. The same missions are one of the best money sources in the remake, which our guide to earning Reales covers. Smooth Operator, for crafting an item, comes through the story on its own.
Other early Bronzes are combat and hunting challenges, such as Matador, Perfect Predator and Double Tap, which involve wild pigs, great white sharks and ocelots. Do them as the animals show up rather than making special trips.
Step Two: The Collectible and Naval Stage
The longest stage, 20 to 30 hours in PowerPyx's estimate, is collectibles and naval progression: forts, shipwrecks, Legendary Ships, portraits, officers, Ultimate Plans and more. You do not need full completion for the Platinum, only the collectibles the trophy list asks for.
The order matters more than the speed. Upgrading the Jackdaw early makes every later naval task safer, so put the first big chunk of money into hull, broadsides and the ram before chasing distant collectibles. Recruit officers as their questlines open, because several of them unlock tools you need for specific trophies. Then sweep the map region by region, capturing the fort, climbing the viewpoints and clearing the collectibles in one visit, so you are not sailing back to the same island three times.
The naval trophies are best done as one push. King of the Castle needs all 11 forts captured, and capturing forts is also what unlocks the Legendary Ships. Ship This needs the Jackdaw fully upgraded, which takes all 12 Ultimate Plans and about 315,800 Reales. Devil of the Caribbean needs every Legendary Ship defeated, and PowerPyx recommends a fully upgraded ship and every officer recruited first. Our Legendary Ships guide has coordinates and tactics for each fight.
Officers also feed other trophies. Return The Favor asks you to Ram-Dash a Brig, which requires recruiting The Padre and buying the first ram upgrade. Collective Madness needs one ship of each class, Schooner, Brig, Frigate and Man-o-War, in Kenway's Fleet. Cartographer asks you to visit every location in the game, which PowerPyx counts as 57 question-mark locations.
Portraits and Mayan Stelae are worth collecting carefully, because they also reward outfits: every Character Portrait unlocks Haytham Kenway's Overcoat and every Mayan Stela unlocks the Mayan Outfit. Our outfits guide lists the rest.
Let Kenway's Fleet Do Trophy Work in the Background
Two trophies depend on the fleet, and both get easier the earlier you start. Dilettante needs Art Pieces that drop at random from Brig Piracy missions, and Collective Madness needs a Schooner, a Brig, a Frigate and a Man-o-War in the fleet at the same time. Since you add ships by boarding them at sea, you will collect most classes simply by playing; the big warships just need a Jackdaw strong enough to survive the fight first.
VGC's fleet guide explains the rest of the system: you manage the fleet from the Captain's Cabin on the Jackdaw or from the Villa table at Great Inagua, each ship runs only one type of mission, Trade and Piracy pay best, Scout missions restock warehouses and Patrol missions with a Man-o-War lower the Risk level of an area so your ships take less damage. Expanding docks and berths lets you run ten ships.
The practical routine is to keep as many Brigs on Piracy as your berths allow, check the Captain's Cabin whenever you board the Jackdaw, and send ships straight back out after collecting their rewards. Because Art Pieces are random, a fleet that never stops sailing will finish Dilettante long before you finish the collectible stage, while a fleet you forget about can leave it as the last trophy standing.
One more planning note for Last to Leave: since the chair spawns only rarely on Burning Ship events, make a manual save before you approach one. You have 20 manual slots, so dedicating one to this hunt costs nothing, and reloading is far quicker than sailing around waiting for the next event.
Step Three: Cleanup and Odd Ones Out
The final stage is short, one to two hours, and covers anything left over. Grandmaster asks you to win each tavern game, and only on the 1-star difficulty. Overdesign IV asks you to kick a berserk enemy caught in smoke off a ship, so it needs three conditions at once and is worth setting up deliberately during a boarding fight rather than hoping it happens.
If a cleanup trophy refuses to pop, reload and repeat the action rather than replaying large chunks of the game. And if a trophy shows as earned in the game but not on your profile, the sync checks in our guide to PS5 trophies that do not unlock are the first thing to try.
Does New Game+ Change Anything for Trophies?
PowerPyx's roadmap was written at launch and says New Game+ is not available, which was true then. Title Update 1.0.8 on October 26, 2026 added New Game+ and a Nightmare difficulty, along with new outfits, trinkets and six hidden community chests. None of that changes the one-playthrough nature of the Platinum: there are still no difficulty trophies and nothing is missable, so New Game+ is a bonus rather than a requirement.
It does change how you might plan, though. Because New Game+ resets forts, quests and map discovery while keeping your gear and money, finishing the collectible trophies in your first world is easier than chasing them across cycles. Our New Game+ guide lists exactly what carries over.
Hidden Trophies and Your Profile
If any entries on your list show as hidden and you want to plan around them, the PS5 lets you reveal hidden trophies one at a time or all at once, which our explainer on PS5 hidden trophies walks through.

If You Would Rather Skip the Grind
The Assassin's Creed series page collects every Assassin's Creed listing on the store, from saves for Valhalla, Mirage, Odyssey, Origins and the original Black Flag to the Black Flag Resynced modded save for PS5 and PC, so it is the quickest way to compare options across the series. For the remake specifically, the Black Flag Resynced hub lists boosting services that target the most time-consuming parts of this roadmap, such as all 131 collectibles, all 17 ship upgrades and all 9 officers, each with its own platform notes and requirements on the product page.
