Easy Trophies In Days Gone

If you’re looking for something to play this Halloween, a survival horror game might just do the trick. Since it’s the season, we thought we’d treat you to 4 easy trophies in Days Gone. Read on to find out how.

How To Earn Easy Trophies In Days Gone

‘Burnout Apocalypse’ Trophy 

First, reach Trust Level 3 with the fourth camp, “Diamond Lake”, in the Crater Lake region. Complete all the story missions and encampment jobs there and kill all hordes in the Highway 97 region. This is best done after completing the story, this way the hordes get automatically marked on the map. If you want to kill them quickly, then we recommend the Chicago Chopper Gun which can be bought at “Wizard Island”. Once you’ve reached Trust Level 3, buy the Nitrous 3 upgrade for your bike. You must drift in a large circle (driving a donut with the front wheel locked in place won’t count) and speed up a bit. Then, hold Left Analog-stick + R2 + Circle + X. This takes some practice but once you’ve done it you’ll get the Burnout Apocalypse Trophy! 

‘Farewell Drift’ Trophy

While your bike stands still, press Left Analog-stick + R2 + Circle to make your bike spin in a circle. You cannot be driving in a circle for it, as only a “donut” counts so the front wheel must stay locked in place! It is best to do this at a fuel station so you can refill the tank. We recommend the O’Leary Mountain Safehouse. There is a fuel station and safe area where no Freakers can reach you! Drive in a donut until fuel runs out, refill fuel, repeat. You can keep track of your time under “Storylines” – “Trophies” – “Farewell Drift”. 

‘This Is A Knife’ Trophy

The best and easiest way to get the “This Is A Knife” trophy early is in the “Playing All Night” story mission. This starts the first time you visit the fourth region, “Iron Butte”. There you will fight a single Breaker. Try to get the trophy during this opportunity since you can see the health for this one! You can first weaken the enemy with other weapons but the final hit must be from the default “Boot Knife”. Do this, and there you go! 

‘Variety Is The Spice Of Life’ Trophy

Kill any enemy with the five different types of crossbow bolts to get the “Variety Is The Spice Of Life” trophy. The Crossbow is automatically unlocked from the beginning but you can unlock all bolt types from story missions and ambush camps! This is one of the most easy trophies in Days Gone as most players do it anyway. Here’s how to unlock all five bolt types:

  • Crossbow Bolt: Automatically unlocked from the beginning (Materials: 1 x Cedar Sapling, 1 x Scrap).
  • Residue Bolt: Automatically unlocked from the “They’re Not Sleeping” story mission in the “Finding Nero” storyline (Materials: 1 x Cedar Sapling, 1 x Nest Residue, 1 x Scrap).
  • Poison Bolt: Automatically unlocked from the “I’ve Got A Plan” story mission in the “I’m Never Giving Up” storyline (Materials: 1 x Cedar Sapling, 1 x Poison, 1 x Scrap).
  • Incendiary Bolt: Conquer 8 Ambush Camps (Materials: 1 x Cedar Sapling, 1 x Rag, 1 x Kerosine, 1 x Scrap).
  • Explosive Bolt: Conquer 12 Ambush Camps (Materials: 1 x Cedar Sapling, 1 x Spark Igniter, 1 x Gunpowder, 1 x Scrap).
