Black Myth: Wukong Trophy Guide and Platinum Roadmap

The Black Myth: Wukong platinum, Final Fulfillment, takes 36 trophies (1 platinum, 4 gold, 9 silver and 22 bronze), at least two playthroughs and roughly 40 to 60 hours, according to PowerPyx's roadmap. Seven trophies are missable and six need New Game+, so the order you do things in matters more than skill. This guide lays out that order, flags every missable and explains the trophies that trip people up.

We built it from PowerPyx's trophy roadmap and official trophy list, cross-checked with the Fextralife wiki, Shacknews and KeenGamer for the boss and collectible details, in November 2026.

Platinum Overview

Here are the basics from PowerPyx's roadmap before you start:

• Trophies: 36 in total, all offline. There are no online trophies.
• Estimated difficulty: 5 out of 10.
• Time: 40 to 60 hours, depending on skill and luck with randomly dropped items.
• Playthroughs: a minimum of two, because New Game+ is required for some trophies.
• Missables: seven.
• Difficulty settings: none, so nothing is locked behind a harder mode.
• Stacking: there is no PS4 version, so there is no separate list to stack and no save transfer from PS4.

Most of the platinum is about thoroughness: optional bosses, secret areas, collectibles and crafting. The hardest single fights are in the secret ending sequence, and the hardest trophy overall is Portraits Perfected, which asks for every journal entry.

The Seven Missable Trophies

PowerPyx lists seven trophies you can miss on a given run. "Missable" here means you can lock yourself out on that cycle, not that they are gone forever, since New Game+ gives another chance. Still, missing one costs hours.

1. Urge Unfulfilled (bronze): tied to a horse NPC in Chapter 5. Follow his thread before you leave that chapter for good.
2. Always Accompanied (bronze): talk to the Old Man in every location he appears, and upgrade your gourd to its top tier.
3. Fickle Forms (silver): unlock every spirit skill and transformation. Some spirits come from optional bosses that are easy to skip.
4. A Curious Collection (silver): collect every Curio.
5. Mantled with Might (silver): unlock every armor piece. It also needs New Game+.
6. Brewer's Bounty (silver): unlock every gourd, drink and soak. It also needs New Game+.
7. Portraits Perfected (gold): complete every journal entry by defeating each enemy type.

The simplest protection is to clear each chapter's optional content before its final boss. The chapter enders (Black Bear Guai, Yellow Wind Sage, Yellowbrow, the Hundred-Eyed Daoist Master, the Yaksha King and the Great Sage's Broken Shell) are your checkpoints: when you reach one, stop and sweep the region first.

Step-by-Step Roadmap

PowerPyx splits the platinum into three steps. Following them in order is the best way to finish in two cycles.

Step 1: The story, about 20 to 30 hours. Explore every area thoroughly. Kill at least one of every enemy type as you go, which builds Portraits Perfected without a later hunt. Do each chapter's missable content, including the horse and Old Man dialogues, the optional bosses and spirits, before that chapter's final boss. Story trophies such as Blazing Black Wind, A Great Gust, Nifty Nonsense, Behold the Betrayal, Flaming Fury and A Duel of Destiny unlock naturally.

Step 2: Full cleanup, about 10 to 20 hours. After the Chapter 6 credits, choose Continue Journey on the title screen. Do not choose Enter a New Cycle yet, because it overwrites your save. Now defeat every remaining boss, finish the side quests, clear the secret areas, and collect boss equipment, Curios, Vessels, Celestial Pills, seeds, medicine formulas and meditation spots. This is also the time to earn the secret ending.

Step 3: New Game+, about 10 hours. Start a new cycle only once everything else is done. New Game+ is required for Six Senses Secured, Master of Magic, Page Preserver, Brewer's Bounty, Staffs and Spears, and Mantled with Might. It is also where you mop up any boss or collectible you missed and gather the extra materials to craft every weapon and armor piece.

Boss and Secret Area Trophies

A big chunk of the bronze list is tied to optional bosses, and most of them sit in the same places as the secret ending requirements:

• Temple of Taint: defeat Elder Jinchi in the Chapter 1 secret area, reached by ringing three bells.
• Shifting Sands: defeat Fuban through the Drunken Boar questline in Chapter 2.
• The Cockerel Crowed: defeat the Duskveil in the Chapter 4 secret area.
• Frost and Flame: defeat the Bishui Golden-Eyed Beast in the Chapter 5 secret area.
• The Sire and Sons: defeat the four hidden Loongs. Our Loong boss guide covers the Loong Scales and the fight order.
• The Clamor of Frogs: defeat all six frog bosses. The trophy's own description jokes about six frogs and six skills, and the frogs are easy to overlook, so tick them off as you find them.
• Meet the Match (gold): finish the secret ending. Our true ending guide lists the five requirements for opening Mount Mei.

Doing the four secret areas as you reach each chapter knocks out four bronzes and most of the secret ending setup in one pass.

Collectible and Crafting Trophies

The rest of the list rewards thorough exploration and crafting. A few deserve specific attention:

• Treasure Trove (silver): collect all four vessels.
• Seeds to Sow and Happy Harvest (bronze): collect every seed, and harvest plants grown from seeds you give to Chen Loong in Zodiac Village.
• Scenic Seeker (bronze): find every meditation spot. Each one also gives a Spark the first time you meditate there.
• Medicine Meal (silver): collect Celestial Pills, which PowerPyx lists as part of the cleanup step.
• Staffs and Spears (silver): craft every weapon. Several only become craftable in New Game+, such as the Stormflash Loong Staff.
• Mantled with Might (silver): unlock every armor piece, also needing New Game+. Our armor guide shows where the major sets come from.
• Pound and Perfect (bronze): upgrade one armor piece with the blacksmith Yin Tiger.
• Six Senses Secured (gold): start New Game+ after collecting all six relics.

Chapter by Chapter Checklist

To turn the missable list into something you can act on, here is what to confirm before each chapter's final boss, based on PowerPyx's boss and roadmap notes:

• Chapter 1: beat the Wandering Wight, which PowerPyx flags as missable, and ring the three bells for Elder Jinchi. Talk to the Old Man wherever you meet him.
• Chapter 2: in the double fight with the Second Rat Prince and the King of Flowing Sands, kill the smaller boss first or you miss a spirit. Take the Loong Scales from the Valley of Despair, finish the Drunken Boar questline for Fuban, and clear the Black Loong.
• Chapter 3: fight the Apramana Bat on the North Shore before moving on, since PowerPyx marks it missable. Start the Treasure Hunter questline, beat the Cyan Loong, and work through Chen Loong's questline for Happy Harvest and armor upgrades.
• Chapter 4: meet the Venom Daoist in the Pool of Shattered Jade, because his second encounter and the route to the secret area depend on it. The Scorpionlord and Daoist Mi in that area are also flagged missable.
• Chapter 5: follow the horse NPC's thread for Urge Unfulfilled and finish the cart chain that opens Bishui Cave.
• Chapter 6: collect the four Monkey King pieces from the required chiefs and the Jingubang from the Water Curtain Cave, which PowerPyx ties to the Guardian of Gear trophy.

Work through this list and your second cycle becomes a short New Game+ run rather than a salvage mission.

Avoiding Glitches and Lost Hours

PowerPyx notes that some players have reported collectible or equipment trophies failing to unlock. The workaround it suggests is simple: make a PS Plus cloud backup of your save before you pick up the last item in a category. If the trophy still does not pop, reinstall the game, restore the cloud save and grab the item again.

Three other habits save time:

1. Never start a new cycle by accident. Use Continue Journey after the credits until Step 2 is done.
2. Use Challenge mode for practice. The December 2024 update added boss rematches at Keeper's Shrines after your first completion, which is a low pressure way to rehearse a fight before a trophy attempt.
3. Plan your time. Our playtime breakdown compares story, completionist and platinum estimates so you can budget the two cycles.

Finally, if you play on Steam or Xbox, you earn achievements rather than trophies. This guide follows the PS5 list.

Want the Platinum Done for You?

If two cycles, seven missables and a Portraits Perfected hunt are more than you can fit in, the store's Black Myth: Wukong platinum trophy service covers the full list on PS5, including all 22 bronze, 9 silver and 4 gold trophies plus the platinum, unlocked directly on your account. You can choose timestamps that spread the trophies across several days with realistic gaps, or have them unlock within a few seconds of each other.
