The Phantom Blade Zero trophy list on Steam has 66 achievements with no platinum-style final trophy. They break down into 13 story progress achievements, 19 boss defeats, 9 quest completions, 4 collectibles, 20 weapon and Phantom Edge unlocks, and one final achievement called Defy Destiny that fires only when everything else is done. The PS5 list is a different, smaller set of 36 digital trophies with a platinum.

Where the collectibles are
Four of these achievements are pure collection tasks, and each one hides a lot of walking. The collectibles page has the target counts for Sha-Chi Ambers, Memory Flowers, Blackstones and Accessories, the early Sha-Chi Amber pickups, and the lore collections that hand out free Remnant Dust. The trophy guide page covers the order to work through them in. If you are on PS5, use the 36-trophy platinum checklist on that page instead — the PlayStation list is a different, smaller set with its own missables and its own hour count.
