Split Fiction Trophy Guide and Platinum Walkthrough

Play through all 8 chapters with your partner. Both players should be signed in to PSN accounts so trophies pop for both.

Explore as you go for benches and side stories, since Mio and Zoe usually point side stories out in dialogue.

Use chapter select to finish all 12 side stories for Bookworms, making sure you get Mountain Hike in Neon Revenge.

Sit on the remaining benches for the bench trophy.

Turn on Allow Skipping to Next Checkpoint, then mop up the miscellaneous trophies including the Chapter 4 shooter minigame score.

With every trophy earned, It Took Two unlocks. If you are helping a partner, they can bank the same platinum quickly using the fast routes.

Split Fiction cannot be played solo. For local co-op, sign both trophy accounts into the same console before the first chapter. For online co-op, one player can own the full game while the second uses the free Friend's Pass. Confirm which account is the host and which is the guest before relying on chapter shortcuts, because trophy credit needs to be verified on the profile that wants the platinum.

Keep the same account pairing through the story when possible. Changing host, guest, or local player order halfway through makes it harder to diagnose a missing side story or chapter-specific trophy. After an important unlock, pause long enough to confirm it on both profiles before moving to the next checkpoint.

An offline partner who already has the platinum can load the final checkpoint of one mission in each chapter, one side story checkpoint for Bookworms, and one bench. This can reduce the route to roughly an hour for the second account. Online, an invite to the final Chapter 8 mission combined with checkpoint skipping is closer to three hours.

These methods depend on the game recognising the joining account correctly. Test one early chapter trophy first. If it unlocks, continue with the shortened sequence. If it does not, return to the normal chapter route rather than completing every shortcut and discovering at the end that the guest account did not receive credit.

Bookworms requires all 12 side stories. Eleven sit close to the main route and are introduced by Mio and Zoe's dialogue. Mountain Hike in Neon Revenge is the usual miss, so confirm it in chapter select before assuming the side-story list is complete. Use one bench for the related co-op trophy and clear the Chapter 4 shooter minigame high score while that chapter is already loaded.

Nothing is permanently missable because the sub-chapter selector returns to specific checkpoints. Enable Allow Skipping to Next Checkpoint before cleanup to reduce repeated traversal. The game keeps one autosave and no manual saves, so finish the current task and verify the trophy before loading another sub-chapter.

Open the trophy list on both co-op accounts after the final chapter and compare the missing entries. A side story, bench, or minigame trophy may exist on one profile but not the other if the account was not active at the required checkpoint. Use sub-chapter select to repair only the missing task, keep the same host and guest order that produced valid credit earlier, and wait for both unlock notifications before loading another checkpoint.

Damage adjustments and checkpoint skipping do not disable trophies. Use them when revisiting a known task so cleanup tests the requirement rather than repeating completed combat.

For each chapter, record its side story, miscellaneous trophy, and whether both co-op profiles received credit. Complete the local items before loading the next chapter. This is faster than scanning the full trophy list at the end and makes the single autosave less risky because the current checkpoint only needs to protect one small group of tasks.
