How to get all character trophies in one play-through.

[CookeKeyes 98]

I was writing a trophy guide for this game, but lost the patience to do so after my second run through. This is also where I discovered the method of getting all the character trophies that I’m about to explain here. 

First of all, you’ll need two controllers or a friend to help if you don’t have a second controller.
 

• Step One: Finish the story on any character. This is necessary so we can unlock the final boss in Boss Rush mode. Alternatively, if your friend already did this then skip to step 2.
• Step Two: Select manage characters from the pause menu. Press start on your second controller and choose your character, or create a new one.
• Step Three: Go to boss rush and choose the final boss. Defeat the boss (doesn’t matter if player 2 dies, but revive them afterwards) This will unlock the story trophies for both characters, but the second player is on a different account so we’ll need to do some extra work to get the trophies on your main account. If you’re using a friend, this isn’t necessary and you’re done. Just repeat step two for each character trophy you need.

 

• Step Four: Close the game and switch over to player 2’s account and launch the game with their controller.
• Step Five: Repeat step 2, but player 2 this time is your main account.
• Step Six: Repeat step 3 again, but set the difficulty to very easy since your character is probably only level 1 or 2. You can still defeat the final boss at this low a level, even using basic attacks. Once it’s dead, exit the arena and load back into the hub area. Close the game and switch back to player 1’s account (your main account)
• Step Seven: Launch the game on your main account and load into the game with the character you just used in the previous step. Wait around a bit and the trophy for beating the story with that character should unlock. It can take a few seconds for it to register. Try opening the journal a few times.

 

You need to switch back to your main account on step seven, because the game doesn’t register you beating the story when you’re on your alt account for some reason. If it doesn’t pop, go fight the final boss in boss rush (Which should be unlocked thanks to step 6) and it definitely will after loading back into the hub area.
 

Anyway, repeat this process for each character you need the trophy for and that’s it! This saves about 4 to 6 hours per character, drastically lowering the time to platinum by about 12 to 18 hours. You might be able to do all characters at once if you have 4 controllers, but I don’t so I couldn’t test this.
 

Anyway, hope this is helpful to someone. The game isn’t awful, just somewhat bland and is sold at an insultingly high price. DO NOT PAY $60 FOR THIS GAME!! Wait for a sale and get it for much cheaper. The maximum I’d pay for this is around $25, but $15 is the ideal price IMO. Also, Elessa is awesome.

This didn't work in boss rush but what you can do in co-op is backup before final boss in the story and invite another new character in and get the trophies that way.

Worked for me in boss rush. Used a secondary account. The secondary account gained trophies as described.

So the method worked for me, but before I could get the 'Happily Ever After' trophy for all the characters trophies I closed the application.. I  basically closed the game in the middle of saving and now I have 4 trophies for all characters  and the gold one for all them is not unlocking ;<

 

Totally my fault with not waiting for the game to save but shut it down in the middle of it...

 

I tired everything - went with the same characters once more, tried the fifth one, tried unlocking all the rest of the trophies except this glitched one - so if anybody has any idea what to do in this situation  please let me now - I just missing this trophy before I can get the platinum one ;/ 

 

 

EDIT - So I reinstalled the game, deleted the saves and done four Boss rushes with four new characters again and it worked - all the trophies are in ;>

Thanks,i just used that method and worked fine,with few minor problems. Im going to write it here so maybe someone will pick it up (as the game with latest patch and dlc areas is quite good) and will have same problems as me. Ok so:
-i had to do boss rushes again on every single character on my main account for it to register and get the trophy. So it was mandatory for me

-i had exact same problem as Des_Hiro and Happily ever after did not unlock for me when i got the trophies for each character. To solve this i backed up my save data to cloud and deleted it from system. Repeated everything again on fresh characters and it unlocked fine then.
I think the problem might be the main character i have completed game with. So i recommend using this method only on fresh saves with fresh characters(once alt account have unlocked boss rush ofcourse)  to be sure it will work and be safe from same problem as i had.
There is no need to delete game or any patches as it works fine on latest patch version of the game with all dlcs installed.

If this method still works, is there any good soul to help me out with this? My second controller accidently got flooded few months ago and I don't bother with buying new one as I try to get ps5 asap. If there's anyone willing to aid me, let me know, much appreciated!

I had the same problem, But I didnt erase my data, my solution was to complete the game with Keela too and the trophy appears.
If someone has some doubts about it, just PM me

So, I couldn't get the Boss Rush trick to work. I also finished the game with all characters and Happily Ever After didn't pop.

What I ended up doing was, playing up to the last boss on my alt account, and backing that save onto a USB Drive. Backed up my primary account to the cloud, and deleted my save.

 

Created a new character (5 total) on my primary.

 

Loaded up my save on the alt, and connected my primary account with the first character. Loaded back to the hub after beating the boss, then exited the game and downloaded my alt save from the USB and did the last boss again, this time with the next character. Rinse and repeat, worked for me last night.
