Final Fantasy 16 trophies
Guide on Final Fantasy Trophies

This article will help completionists achieve the platinum trophy by providing you with a Final Fantasy 16 trophy guide. We will try to accomplish this by giving a step-by-step guide on how to get all bronze, silver, and gold trophies in the game. However, remember that you can only get some awards by increasing the game’s difficulty. Moreover, since it is a semi-open world game with some free range, there is a trophy that can be missed.


Key Takeaways

  • Four types of trophies are bronze, silver, gold, and platinum.
  • There are two types of trophies, one being story-related and Non-story related.
  • Story-related trophies can not be skipped and automatically happen.
  • Non-story-related trophies can not be done automatically.
  • Story-related trophies are eleven bronze and one gold.
  • There are many Main Quest and Side Quest.
  • It would be best if you were at a specific Main Quest for some non-story-related trophies.
  • Some trophies require playing the game multiple times in varying difficulty levels.

Before getting to the tutorial’s nitty-gritty, we must preface what kind of trophies we should get. We will also discuss the types of awards that need other trophies completed first. Nonetheless, we should discuss the types of medals in the game.

You can get platinum after completing all the Final Fantasy 16’s trophies that are available. So there is only one platinum trophy, three gold trophies, six silver trophies, and forty bronze trophies.

Since all the awards can be done at any time of the gameplay and are not missable (except one), you can look at this guide at any given time. However, make sure that you do not sell Gotterdamerung materials. Moreover, the Final Fantasy 16 trophy guide will also provide information regarding how many times you must play the game(est) to complete the trophy. 

We will categorize the trophies by type and describe how to get them. (Do keep in mind most of the attack achievements should not be done in the Hall of Virtue)
