The most important information about the trophies
- Ghostwire Tokyo has 57 trophies - 1 platinum trophy (only available on PlayStation 5), 2 gold trophies, 4 silver trophies and 50 bronze trophies.
- All trophies are earned in single player mode since Ghostwire Tokyo has no multiplayer.
- It is possible to get all trophies in a single playthrough, because you can continue playing even after completing the main storyline. Moreover, you can play on any difficulty level, as they are not related to any of the achievements.
- Many trophies are related to secrets and collectibles. You will have to find 100% of them and some secrets may turn out to be problematic or time-consuming (especially finding and sending back groups of spirits). Additionally, you have to complete 100% of the side missions, but they shouldn't be a problem for you and almost all of the optional tasks appear automatically on the map.
- Try to accumulate meika and avoid spending it. Some of the trophies are about buying expansive unique items from traders. You can use the trick to save the game, make the necessary purchases for the achievement, and load the previous save to "get back" the gold for future purchases.
- It can take you more than 40 hours to get the platinum trophy. A lot depends on how fast you can obtain the secrets.

Trophy type: bronze
Comment: Check out the description of the Salvation of Alll trophy. The Helping Hand achievement is its simpler version.
Savior
How to unlock: Transfer 50% of the spirits from the city.
Trophy type: bronze
Comment: Check out the description of the Salvation of Alll trophy. The Savior achievement is its simpler version.
Salvation of All
How to unlock: Transfer 100% of the spirits from the city.
Trophy type: silver
Comment: This trophy and the two previous ones are about absorbing and sending back spirits using katashiro (a paper artifact with magical properties). We have covered this mechanic in more detail on Katashiro and spirit absorbing page.
In short - you have to find blue spirits by using spectral vision, i.e. the scanning mode. If you have spare katashiro, you can absorb spirits. You must then reach the phone booths to safely send the spirits back and receive rewards (XP and gold).
The described achievement is one of the most problematic and time-consuming. To make things easier, you can hover over the icons of cleansed shrines. The screen will then display a percentage value of found and returned spirits in a given district (we have marked it in the picture above). The "Globally" progress bar is visible in the top right corner of the map screen. There are a total of 240,300 spirits to send back, but this is not a huge value - you will mainly find clusters of several hundred spirits.
Besides the elements mentioned above, there are two other things to note:
- Some of the spirits are on rooftops - to get there, locate flying tengu creatures that you can pull yourself towards them with your grapple.
- There are also clusters of spirits in the subway tunnels - you will visit them for the first time during the main storyline. You can then find and absorb them on an ongoing basis, or return to the dungeons later in the game.
- Some spirits can only be absorbed by completing random events with Containment Cubes (preventing trapped spirits from being absorbed by the Visitors) and Hyakki Yako (fights with large groups of Visitors in separate arenas). You can follow the progress of collecting spirits in both of these categories on the world map screen (upper right corner).
Spirit Perception Beads, which can be obtained by cleansing the Hitani Shrine and the Saihama Building Rooftop Torii Gate, can help you in finding the missing spirits. They tag ghosts from a distance while scanning the area. Obtaining both beads will allow you to increase the range of finding ghosts up to 200 meters. This way, you can improve your chances of locating the missing spirits in a given district
Hero of Shibuya
How to unlock: Complete the main storyline after sending 100% of the spirits away from the city.
Trophy type: gold
Comment: Theoretically, this achievement can be missed, but in reality it is not that troublesome and you don't have to worry about going through the whole game twice.
The description of the trophy suggests that you must first find 100% of the spirits in the world and then complete the main storyline. Fortunately, you don't have to complete all of its requirements during the first playthrough, because after completing the main storyline, you will go back to before the point of no return which happens at the end of chapter 4 (picture above). You can then locate the missing spirits and then play the final 2 chapters again (preferably on easy to have a much easier time defeating the final 3 bosses).
Problem Solver
How to unlock: Complete a side mission.
Trophy type: bronze
Comment : Side missions are marked on the map with green icons and they will automatically appear as you advance in the game and explore new districts of the city.
Wishmaker
How to unlock: Complete all side missions.
Trophy type: silver
Comment: This is a more difficult version of the previous trophy. The walkthroughs for the side missions can be found in our walkthrough section.
Opening a Path
How to unlock: Cleanse a torii gate.
Trophy type: bronze
Comment: Torii gates can be found near shrines. First, you have to deal with the Visitors and then hold down the button while standing next to the gate to cleanse it. You will do that for the first time during the KK main mission.
Liberator
How to unlock: Cleanse all torii gates.
Trophy type: bronze
Comment: This is a more difficult version of the Opening a Path trophy. You can find torii gates by reaching the shrines. You will cleanse some of them as part of completing quests. Others can be accessed during free exploration.
If you were cleansing the torii gates on a regular basis, the last one from the picture above will be cleansed during The Black Tower main mission in chapter 4. You should get the trophy after returning from the afterlife.
Treasure Hunter
How to unlock: Obtain a relic.
Trophy type: bronze
Comment: Go to the description of the Collector trophy.

On the Same Wavelength

Comment: The synergy levels are experience levels - you level up by gaining XP. We have described the best ways for earning XP on a separate page - XP - how to collect?. As a reminder, you can, e.g. transfer spirits and complete quests. The maximum Synergy Level is 50.
Shibuya Is My Back Yard
How to unlock: Find all landmarks.
Trophy type: bronze
Comment: Landmarks are unique locations. They can be treated as secrets, but when you approach each landmark, it will be automatically counted as revealed (an example message in the picture above). You should easily complete the requirements of this trophy while searching for other types of collectibles.
Echoes of the Past

Trophy type: bronze
Comment: Go to the description of The Whole Truth trophy.
The Whole Truth

It's All Thanks to Yokai
How to unlock: Get magatama.
Trophy type: bronze
Comment: Go to the description of With Their Powers Combined trophy.
With Their Powers Combined
How to unlock: Get all magatamas.
Trophy type: bronze
Comment: Magatama is a special resource that is obtained by absorbing yokai - unique types of supernatural creatures.
Some of the side quests are related to finding and absorbing yokai (including Kappa, Oni). You can also find Yokai Hunt markers on the world map.
You can easily follow the progress by hovering over the icons of the unlocked shrines - you will get information, e.g. about the magatamas that can be obtained from a given district.
Single magatamas can also be purchased from necomatas - unique cat traders. They are very expensive, so you will need plenty of meika.
Roadside Spirituality
How to unlock: Pray to a Jizo statue.
Trophy type: bronze
Comment: Go to the description of the Pilgrim trophy.
Pilgrim
How to unlock: Pray to all Jizo statues.
Trophy type: bronze
Comment: Jizo statues are one of the types of secrets. You can find these collectibles while exploring the game world - both in quest locations and those unrelated to quests.
You have to press the button to pray. You can easily follow the progress by hovering over the icons of the unlocked shrines - you will get information, e.g. about the Jizo statues in a given district.
We've listed the locations of all Jizo statues in the Secrets and collectibles chapter of our guide.
Your Tail's Showing
How to unlock: Find all of the missing tanuki.
Trophy type: bronze
Comment: This achievement is related to the Tanuki Hunt side mission - its icon should appear on the world map during the second chapter, near one of the captured shrines (the picture above).
This quest is about hunting hidden creatures and, as the name suggests, they can be recognized by their tails (example in the picture). Tanuki can be treated as one of the collectibles, because the game will not show you their exact locations - you will have to find them yourself. There are a total of 25 Tanuki to be located.
We have listed the tanuki hideouts in the Secrets and the collectibles chapter.
Gourmand
How to unlock: Obtain all types of food and drink.
Trophy type: bronze
Comment: You can obtain food and drinks in two ways:
- Find it as loot.
- Buy from cat traders in shops and stalls.
Each time you find a new type of food or a new drink, the game will inform you about adding a new entry to the database. It is best to initially focus on collecting as many items of this type as possible by exploring the world. Shop in stores only at the end of the game to fill in any gaps in the food list.
DJ Akito
How to unlock: Acquire all music tracks.
Trophy type: bronze
Comment: You can obtain new tracks in two ways:
- As quest rewards - this only applies to a few quests. Read mission descriptions to find out if completing them unlocks a new track.
- Buy from traders - nekomata (merchants), besides the option to order unique loot, can also sell tracks. They can sell single tracks (example in the picture above).
Trendsetter
How to unlock: Acquire all items for the Outfit menu (excluding bonus content).
Trophy type: gold
Comment: Clothes can be obtained in two ways:
- Completing quests - this applies only to those quests that have information about the possibility of obtaining a full outfit or a single clothing item in their description.
- Buying from traders - nekomata (merchants), besides the option to order unique loot, can also sell outfits. Their offers may include clothes (exemplary glasses in the picture above).
Talismania
How to unlock: Obtain all talismans.
Trophy type: bronze
Comment: This achievement is related to talismans, which are a unique category of consumables.
You need to unlock access to all the types of talismans. You can check which ones you have obtained in the inventory menu. New talismans can be obtained by progressing in the campaign or found as secrets.
The 4 categories of talismans are:
- Stun Talisman
- Exposure Talisman
- Thicket Talisman
- Talisman of distraction (Decoy Talisman)
Power Overwhelming
How to unlock: Get all sets Prayer Beads.
Trophy type: silver
Comment: This achievement is related to Prayer Beads, a unique category of items that grant passive stat bonuses.
The Beads you currently have are stored in one of the inventory tabs. You can get new Beads by progressing the campaign or by finding them during exploration.
Boundless Spirit
How to unlock: Acquire the maximum number of katashiro.
Trophy type: bronze
Comment: Katashiro dolls are used to absorb spirits. The more katashiro you have in your inventory, the more spirits you can collect before reaching one of the phone booths to free them.
New katashiro dolls are bought in regular stores and each costs 3,000 Meika. You have to get 50 katashiro dolls - meaning all of them.
Animal Lover
How to unlock: Pet an animal.
Trophy type: bronze
Comment: This is a very simple trophy - you can come across dogs and cats that can be petted. Simply approach any animal and press the appropriate button. There are other interactions (mind reading, feeding) available, but they are not required for this achievement.
Amateur Photographer
How to unlock: Use photo mode for the first time.
Trophy type: bronze
Comment: Simply activate the photo mode for the first time. This can be done from the pause menu, but Photo Mode may not work during fights or cut-scenes.
You Wouldn't Steal a Spirit
How to unlock: Successfully protect at least 3 Containment Cubes in a single battle.
Trophy type: bronze
Comment: Containment Cubes are large levitating objects in which the souls of the living are stored. You can find them while exploring the game world. However, this trophy requires you to find a group of at least three cubes (example in the picture). They appear less often than those where you only need to protect two cubes (this isn't enough for the trophy).
Your task is to protect the dice from the Visitors - each cube has information about its durability. This value will begins to drop after a Visitor stands next to a given cube and starts absorbing the spirits - you must attack these enemies first. You can't let the cube's bar drop to 0%. Try to play aggressively, use Quick Purge and Fire Weaving.
Don't Worry About It
How to unlock: Pull a "Daikyo" omikuji.
Trophy type: bronze
Comment: Omikuji are small wooden objects that can be found near some of the shrines. They are also marked with their own icons on the world map - you can choose any omikuji. You need to pay a small fee and take out a piece of paper with a prophecy. The randomly drawn prophecy can grant a positive or negative effect.
For this achievement, you have to draw a Daikyo tile, i.e. the one that will reduce your health points to 1. It's best to save the game before interacting with omikuji and keep paying 200 meiko for subsequent cards until you get the one for the trophy. After each failed draw, load the save.
Better Together
How to unlock: Fuse back with KK after being hit by a severance attack.
Trophy type: bronze
Comment: This achievement can be obtained in two ways:
- After KK is temporarily ripped from Akito's body after a successful unique attack from one of enemies called Kuchisake (those with scissors).
- After completing the mission objective of protecting KK in The Black Tower main quest and reconnecting with him - the trophy will be unlocked automatically.
Visiting Hours Are Over
How to unlock: Defeat every type of Visitor.
Trophy type: bronze
Comment: You should be able to get this trophy while doing the main and side missions. Each time you defeat a new type of opponent, you will receive information about a new entry in the journal.
You should never avoid confrontations. Also remember that you can defeat enemies with stealth attacks.
Heartbreaker
How to unlock: Defeat a Visitor by pulling out its core.
Trophy type: bronze
Comment: You will get this achievement shortly after starting a new game, namely during the City of Shadows main mission.
One of the objectives of this mission is to test the core capture mechanic after sufficiently weakening a Visitor. You have to hold the indicated button until the core is pulled out.
Soul Breaker
How to unlock: Defeat 50 Visitors by pulling out their cores.
Trophy type: bronze
Comment: This is a more elaborate version of the Heartbreaker trophy described above. You have to use the grapple and tear a core of 49 enemies. You should unlock this achievement quite early - core pulling is a great technique to finish off weakened Visitors.
One Fell Swoop
How to unlock: Defeat at least 5 Visitors simultaneously by tearing their cores.
Trophy type: bronze
Comment: It is best to wait for the Caves of Steel main quest during which you will unlock Wire In. After charging it, wait for a larger battle to start with a group of at least 5 Visitors. When the enemies stand close to each other, activate the Wire In to reveal their cores. Stand where you can see the enemies and are able to rip 5 cores at the same time.
Couldn't Take the Heat
How to unlock: Defeat at least 3 Visitors simultaneously by detonating a red ether crystal.
Trophy type: bronze
Comment: We have described this achievement in more detail on a separate page in our trophy guide.
Silent Kill
How to unlock: Defeat a total of 200 Visitors with a Quick Purge.
Trophy type: bronze
Comment: This is a simple, but quite time-consuming achievement that requires you to use stealth attacks. Quick Purge becomes available after sneaking up behind a Visitor. The game will only count those attacks that end up killing the opponent. Some "elite" Visitors are able to survive this attack - it will only weaken them.
Take a Bow
How to unlock: Defeat a total of 50 Visitors with the bow.
Trophy type: bronze
Comment: You will get the bow automatically while completing the KK main mission. From now on, you can start attacking the Visitors with the bow.
Remember that the arrows do not fly in a straight line - aim a little higher to hit enemies that are farther away. Enemies unaware of the hero's presence are the easiest to hit since they don't move quickly - this helps a lot in aiming at them.
Go For the Eyes
How to unlock: Defeat a total of 20 Visitors with a headshot.
Trophy type: bronze
Comment: This is a more elaborate version of the Take a Bow trophy described above. Try to aim your bow at the enemy heads. Use the bow from a shorter distance so that you don't have to correct the arrow's flight path too much and have easier time targeting a specific part of the opponent's body.
Sniper
How to unlock: Defeat a Visitor with a headshot from a distance of at least 40m.
Trophy type: bronze
Comment: This trophy also requires you to use the bow. You can try to unlock it after noticing a single enemy in the distance. Aim well above the Visitor. You will probably have to make a lot of attempts, but you can save the game before shooting so as not to waste arrows.
Freeze, Scumbag
How to unlock: Quickly Purge a total of 10 Visitors after using the stun talisman on them.
Trophy type: bronze
Comment: Stun Talisman is obtained during the main storyline. It is considered a consumable item - you can buy stun talismans in shops for 4,000 gold.
Look for opportunities to throw talismans at opponents. Quickly run up to them and activate quick purge (the stealth takedown). After the Visitor is electrocuted, quickly run to get behind its back. You should see a message that you can use Quick Purge (stealth attack) - example in the picture.
You don't need to kill 10 Visitors in one battle. What's more, the game counts each execution right away, so you can just load your save and defeat the same opponents multiple times.
A Shrubbery!
How to unlock: Defeat a total of 3 Visitors with Quick Purge while hiding in bushes created by a Thicket Talisman.
Trophy type: bronze
Comment: Thicket Talisman will be obtained during the main storyline. It is treated as a consumable item, but you can replenish the stocks of Thicket Talismans by buying them in shops for 1,000 meika.
The easiest way to get this achievement is by stealth attacking enemies who haven't noticed the main character yet. Sneak up to to a Visitor from behind, throw a Thicket Talisman at the opponent (it will not be alarmed), enter the bushes and perform a Quick Purge (stealth attack) on the opponent (example in the picture above). Do this two more times.
Left Yourself Open
How to unlock: Defeat a total of 10 Visitors by ripping out their cores after exposing them with an Exposure Talisman.
Trophy type: bronze
Comment: Exposure Talisman will start appearing in merchants' offers during chapter 3 and each piece costs 7,000 meika. Buy these talismans and throw them at groups of weak opponents. This will allow you to immediately expose their cores - you will be able to tear out even a few of them after a single use of the talisman.
You can also save the game, use a talisman and load the save. This way, you will only need 1 Exposure Talisman.
Master of Blocking
How to unlock: Perform a total of 30 perfect blocks.
Trophy type: bronze
Comment: We have described this achievement in more detail on a separate page in our trophy guide.
In Sync
How to unlock: Wire In a total of 10 times.
Trophy type: bronze
Comment: Wire In is a powerful stun attack that you unlock during the main storyline - it is activated by pressing both analog sticks at the same time.
You can recharge the Wire In bar in two ways:
- by grabbing and tearing the cores of Visitors,
- by eliminating Visitors with quick purge (stealth attacks).
Walking on Air
How to unlock: Grapple and glide to remain in the air for at least 10 seconds.
Trophy type: bronze
Comment: Make some preparations for this trophy:
- Purchase all levels of the Amenokagami skill, which extends the maximum time of a single glide to 5 seconds.
- Head to any location with several tengu close to each other.
Pull yourself to the first tengu and start gliding right away. During the flight, approach the second tengu and pull yourself towards it without touching the ground. Start gliding again and, if necessary, repeat this process to be in the air for a total of 10 seconds.
Big Spender
How to unlock: Spend a total of 1,000,000 meika.
Trophy type: bronze
Comment: Meika is a currency in Ghostwire Tokyo. The best methods of getting rich have been compiled on the Meika (currency) - how to collect? page. As a reminder, you can get large amounts of meika by smashing yellow levitating objects (especially the larger ones) and sending souls in telephone booths.
You can spend large amounts of meika mainly on unique items sold by nekomata (cat traders), e.g. KK's Investigation Notes or magatama. Some of these items can cost as much as 100,000 meika or more.
Pious
How to unlock: Put a total of 10,000 meika into offering boxes.
Trophy type: bronze
Comment: Offering Boxes can be found near some of the shrines. They are also marked with special icons on the world map.
You have to:
- Save the game while standing in front an Offering Box.
- Interact with the box and choose to donate 500 meika. You can choose any request for support - it doesn't matter for the achievement.
- You can interact with the box only once, but you can pause the game and load the previous save (picture above).
- Donate 500 meika again.
Keep doing that until you donate a total of 10,000 meika. The game automatically saves every donation - loading a save will not reset the counter. Using this method will also allow you to keep all your meika - you won't have to spend 10,000 gold.
Lonely Tsukimi
How to unlock: Spend at least 30 seconds looking at the moon.
Trophy type: bronze
Comment: This is a very simple trophy - stand in a place where you can see the Moon, look at it and do not move until you get the achievement.
