Missable Trophies/Achievements

Avoid missing Trophies and Achievements in Beyond: Two Souls. Learn which dialogue options and Quick Time Events (QTEs) are crucial for 100% completion.

Beyond: Two Souls is a narrative-driven experience with branching paths and numerous choices that directly impact the story and, consequently, the trophies and achievements you can unlock. Many of these are tied to specific dialogue options, actions, or even failing certain Quick Time Events (QTEs). To achieve 100% completion, careful planning and multiple playthroughs are often required. This section details the most commonly missed trophies and provides actionable steps to ensure you don't overlook them.

Chapter: The Experiment

Aiden's Revenge

• Description: Punish the boys who bullied Jodie.
• Walkthrough: During the "The Experiment" chapter, after the boys have locked Jodie in the closet, you will gain control of Aiden.
  1. As Aiden, exit the closet and possess one of the boys.
  2. Lead the possessed boy to the other two bullies in the room.
  3. Initiate a fight between the possessed boy and the others. You can also make him break objects around the room for added chaos.
  4. Ensure all three boys are affected by Aiden's actions before Jodie is discovered.
• Why it's missable: It's easy to simply escape the room with Aiden, or only interact with one boy, missing the full "revenge" sequence.

Chapter: First Interview

Mind Reader

• Description: Successfully read the interviewer's mind.
• Walkthrough: In the "First Interview" chapter, when Jodie is being questioned by Dr. Dawkins, you will have an opportunity to use Aiden to read his mind.
  1. When prompted, switch to Aiden.
  2. Locate Dr. Dawkins and use Aiden's ability to scan his thoughts.
  3. You must successfully interpret his thoughts, which will reveal his skepticism and personal feelings about Jodie's abilities.
• Why it's missable: This is a subtle interaction. Players might rush through the dialogue or not realize Aiden can be used for this specific action during the interview.

Chapter: Homeless

Miracle Worker

• Description: Heal Jimmy and save the baby.
• Walkthrough: This trophy requires specific actions during the "Homeless" chapter.
  1. Heal Jimmy: After Jimmy is attacked, you will find him bleeding out. As Aiden, you must focus your healing energy on him. This is a QTE sequence; succeed in all prompts to stabilize him.
  2. Save the Baby: Later in the chapter, the baby will fall ill. Again, switch to Aiden and use your healing abilities on the infant. This also involves a QTE.
• Why it's missable: Failing either QTE sequence will result in Jimmy's death or the baby's demise, making the trophy unobtainable for that playthrough. It's crucial to succeed in both healing attempts.

Chapter: The Party

Party Animal

• Description: Make Jodie dance, drink, and interact with all party-goers.
• Walkthrough: To unlock this, Jodie needs to fully engage with the party environment before the "prank" occurs.
  1. Dance: Approach the music area and choose to dance.
  2. Drink: Find the drinks table and have Jodie consume a drink.
  3. Interact: Speak to every accessible party guest. This includes the girl by the window, the couple on the couch, and the group near the kitchen. Ensure Jodie exhausts all dialogue options with each person.
• Why it's missable: Players might focus only on the main objective or trigger the prank prematurely, cutting short Jodie's social interactions.

Chapter: Navajo

A Better Life

• Description: Help the Navajo family resolve their spiritual issues.
• Walkthrough: This trophy requires completing all optional spiritual tasks for the Navajo family.
  1. Cleanse the Land: After the initial events, use Aiden to cleanse the corrupted area outside the house.
  2. Heal the Grandmother: When the grandmother falls ill, use Aiden's healing powers on her.
  3. Find the Spirit: Locate and interact with the lost spirit wandering the property, guiding it to peace.
  4. Destroy the Evil Entity: Confront and defeat the malevolent entity plaguing the family.
• Why it's missable: It's easy to miss one of the optional spiritual interactions or fail to fully cleanse an area, leading to an incomplete resolution for the family.

Chapter: Black Sun

The End (Specific Endings)

• Description: Unlock all possible endings.
• Walkthrough: While not a single trophy, achieving 100% requires experiencing all major endings. Many of these are mutually exclusive and depend on choices made throughout the entire game, especially in the "Black Sun" chapter.
  • Stay with Aiden: Choose to stay in the Infraworld.
  • Life with Ryan: Choose to return and pursue a relationship with Ryan. This requires a positive relationship with him throughout the game.
  • Life with Jay: Choose to return and pursue a relationship with Jay (from the Navajo chapter). This requires a positive relationship with him.
  • Life Alone: Choose to return but reject all potential partners.
  • Beyond: Choose to return and connect with other conduits.
• Why it's missable: Endings are determined by a cumulative score of choices and specific decisions made in the final chapter. To get all of them, you will need multiple playthroughs, focusing on different relationships and final choices. Ensure you make a manual save before entering the Black Sun to easily reload and experience different outcomes.
