Cal Kestis's second outing is a sprawling Metroidvania collectathon at its core, and the platinum rewards patient exploration far more than raw combat skill. Crucially, no trophy asks you to beat the game on the hardest setting. The full trophy list runs to 54 trophies — 44 bronze, 7 silver, 2 gold and the Star Wars Jedi: Survivor Platinum — and this guide walks you through exactly how to earn every one.
Below you'll find a difficulty and time breakdown, a visual trophy chart, the smartest way to approach the run, a full step-by-step roadmap, the trickiest trophies, common mistakes to avoid, faster-platinum tips and an FAQ.

Trophy Breakdown
Here's how the 54 trophies in Star Wars Jedi: Survivor split across the four tiers:
The list is dominated by exploration and collectible trophies — chests, databank, essences, seeds, fish, treasures, perks and full map completion — plus a cluster of combat-encounter trophies for Force Tears and Legendary enemies. Only a small number are strictly story-gated, and none require multiplayer or a hardest-difficulty clear.
How Hard Is the Jedi: Survivor Platinum?
This is a low-pressure platinum for an action game because there is no difficulty-based trophy — you can play the entire story, every Force Tear and every Legendary enemy on Story Mode if you want. The real gate is not skill but persistence: the map is enormous across Koboh, Jedha, Coruchant and Shattered Moon, and the completion trophies want you to hoover up chests, databank entries, essences, seeds, treasures and perks. The only genuine skill checks are the combat Force Tears and the optional Legendary adversaries, and even those bend to a lowered difficulty.
Where people actually get stuck is bookkeeping, not bosses. Koboh alone is a maze of interconnected biomes, and it is easy to miss a rumor at Pyloon's Saloon, forget to plant every seed in the garden, or overlook the aquarium fish Skoova collects for you. Early-launch performance patches also caused headaches — some players saw collectibles or map percentages fail to register, so most guides recommend playing on a current patch and quitting to menu to force saves after big collectible hauls. The holotactics minigame trips people up too, since it is easy to ignore until you realize it has its own requirement.
How It Compares to Similar Platinums
On our difficulty scale the Jedi: Survivor platinum sits at 4/10 (very achievable) and takes roughly 35–50 hours, so it helps to see where it lands next to similar games. It sits below tougher grinds like God of War Ragnarök and Stellar Blade, which makes it a solid stepping stone before you take those on.
| Game | Difficulty | Time | Trophies |
|---|---|---|---|
| Star Wars Jedi: Survivor (this guide) | 4/10 (very achievable) | 35–50 hrs | 54 |
| God of War Ragnarök | 5/10 (moderate) | 40–55 hrs | 36 |
| Wo Long: Fallen Dynasty | 6/10 (challenging) | 50-60 hours hrs | 51 |
| Stellar Blade | 5/10 (moderate) | 35–45 hrs | 45 |
The Smartest Way to Approach It
Play the campaign once on whatever difficulty you enjoy, then drop to Story Mode for the handful of combat Force Tears and Legendary fights that give you trouble — the trophies do not care how you earned them. Prioritize stim canister and Force/health essence upgrades early so exploration is less punishing, and buy or find perk slots as you go so 'unlock all perks' is trivially done by endgame.
Lean on the holomap: it shows explored percentage per region and marks unopened chests once an area is fully mapped, so save deep collectible sweeps for after you have the double-jump, dash and other traversal upgrades. Plant every seed you find at the Pyloon's Saloon garden, feed Skoova every fish location, clear the rumor board, and knock out the Jedha roller-mine and treasure hunts in one dedicated pass. Do holotactics matches whenever you visit the saloon so it is finished long before your final cleanup.
Star Wars Jedi: Survivor Trophy Roadmap
Play the main story naturally on a comfortable difficulty, but explore as you go — grab visible chests, essences and stim upgrades, and unlock every traversal ability the campaign gives you.
Between missions, return to Pyloon's Saloon often: clear the rumor board, plant seeds in the garden, hand fish to Skoova for the aquarium, and play holotactics matches so those systems finish passively.
After the credits, use the holomap's per-region completion percentages to systematically finish exploration in Koboh, Jedha, Coruscant and Shattered Moon, opening every remaining chest and databank point.
Sweep the Force Tears and Legendary adversaries; if any combat encounter walls you, drop to Story Mode purely for that fight since no trophy tracks difficulty.
Buy any leftover perks and perk slots, tidy up the last collectibles the map flags, and the platinum unlocks once every completion category is full.
Trickiest Trophies in Jedi: Survivor
Combat Force Tears — These optional challenge arenas throw dense enemy waves at you; they are the closest thing to a skill wall, though dropping to Story Mode defuses them.
Legendary adversaries — Tough optional bosses like the cave-dwelling Oggdo variant hit hard, but a lowered difficulty and upgraded stims make them manageable.
Full map / chest completion — Koboh's interconnected biomes make it easy to leave a sealed door or hidden chest behind; the holomap percentage is your only reliable checklist.
Seed and aquarium collections — Seeds must be found across planets and physically planted, and fish must be handed to Skoova — both are silent, easily-forgotten side systems.
Holotactics — The saloon strategy minigame is trivial but obscure; players routinely miss its requirement because it sits off to the side of the main loop.
Common Mistakes to Avoid
Assuming trophies track difficulty — they do not, so there is no reason to suffer on Jedi Grand Master; lower the setting for tough Force Tears.
Forgetting to plant every seed in the Pyloon's Saloon garden or to feed each fish location to Skoova, both of which are easy to overlook entirely.
Playing on an outdated patch — some early builds failed to register collectibles or map percentage; update first and force a save after big hauls.
Ignoring the holotactics minigame until the very end, then realizing you need to grind matches when you thought you were finished.
Tips to Platinum Jedi: Survivor Faster
Fully upgrade stim canisters and Force/health essences before your cleanup pass so tough Force Tears and Legendary fights stop being a threat.
Do not backtrack for chests until you have every traversal ability — the holomap only flags remaining chests once a region is mapped, saving huge amounts of time.
Make Pyloon's Saloon a routine stop: rumors, garden, aquarium and holotactics all progress there, and doing a little each visit avoids a painful endgame grind.
If a combat trophy is fighting you, pause and drop to Story Mode for just that encounter, then raise it back afterward — nothing tracks the setting.
Quit to the menu after collecting a batch of items to force a save; it sidesteps rare cases where progress fails to register.
