A full platinum roadmap covering four missable trophies, the longer Story Mode goals, and the final Red Dead Online grind. Keep each section open as you play.
GameCorePR editorial estimate: 8/10. Lengthy 100% route, missables, 70 gold medals and online rank.
Five stages · save before advancing chapters
At the camps in chapters 2, 3, and 4, complete one companion activity each. Deliver five item requests and donate $250 to the camp box before chapter 4 ends. Complete every optional honor mission, including debt collections. Use separate saves at the start of each chapter and check your trophies before moving on.
Maintain enough honor to unlock the optional chapter 6 mission; its name is hidden below. Review mission goals before playing and try for gold on the first run: replays provide limited gear. You need 70 gold medals, not all of them. Finish the epilogue.
Open Pause → Progress → Total Completion to follow only the 100% requirements. Complete all 90 challenges and required collectible sets. Replay missions for remaining medals. The nine graves become available after the story; locations are linked behind a spoiler warning.
Keep a separate checklist for Zoologist and Skin Deep: the animals needed for 100% do not cover these trophies. Study and skin the required species, and survive 18 bear attacks before killing each bear. Check the compendium for gaps.
Combine missions, events, series, and awards while climbing to rank 50. Save money for a persistent posse, five stable stalls and horses, and five camp upgrades. MVP requires rounds of four or more players; coordinate the rival mission counter with another posse.
In chapter 6, “Do Not Seek Absolution” requires honor level 4. After the story, visit the nine graves for Paying Respects. The video at the end of this guide shows their locations.
Check your mission log, item requests, and camp activity before advancing. Mission replay will not fix every missable trophy. Keep several manual saves.
Complete during the story · 4 trophies
Complete every optional honor mission in one playthrough.
Check your mission log before finishing each chapter, including debt collections and honor side quests. Reach honor level 4 in chapter 6 for Do Not Seek Absolution. Replaying missions later does not replace completion in your save.
Complete a companion activity in chapters 2, 3, and 4.
Do at least one camp companion activity in each chapter. Visit camp at different times of day before moving to the next chapter.
Donate $250 to the gang box.
Donate before the end of chapter 4, when the box becomes unavailable. Several smaller donations count.
Deliver five requested items to companions.
