Marvel's Wolverine launches September 15, 2026 on PS5, and the trophy list tells you a lot about what the game expects from you. There are 42 trophies total, spread across story beats, boss kills, collectibles, skill progression, and a handful of genuinely weird secrets. Marvel's Wolverine rewards thorough players, but the platinum is achievable without grinding endlessly if you know what to track from the start.
How many trophies are in Marvel's Wolverine?
The full list breaks down to 28 bronze, 9 silver, 4 gold, and 1 platinum. That's 42 trophies in total. The platinum is called "I'm The Best There Is..." and requires completing every other trophy first.
The gold trophies cover the main story, suit crafting, skill progression, and a hidden memory unlock. Silver trophies are split between boss kills and major collectible completion. Bronze covers everything else: combat milestones, story moments, environmental interactions, and a few secrets you can miss entirely.

What trophies can you miss?
Several bronze trophies are tied to specific moments or optional interactions that won't come back around after the relevant section ends.
Poseidon's Kiss requires activating a kissing toilet in a Tokyo bar bathroom. That's not something you stumble into naturally. Same goes for That's Cheating, which asks you to free stuffed animals from claw machines, and Greased, which requires reading Callisto's journal in her Vancouver garage. These are easy to walk past.
Ground Control is tied to the plane section and asks you to push 3 enemies out of the aircraft. If you clear that area without doing it deliberately, the trophy is gone until a replay.
Harmer's Market during the Sabretooth boss fight requires destroying all vendor stalls in the arena. Boss fights tend to pull your attention toward survival, so it's worth noting this one before you enter the fight.
How to approach the skill and progression trophies
Secondary Mutations (Adaptation Level 10) and Ultimate Predator (Player Level 36) are the two progression gates that require consistent play. Neither will unlock from a casual story run alone. Killing enemies, destroying XP Caches (tracked by Cache Crusher at 100), and completing Nightmare Trials all contribute to your progression.
Repressed Memories sits in gold territory and requires unlocking a hidden memory inside Nightmare Trials specifically. Combined with Pathways of the Mind (all Nightmare Doors) and Waking Nightmare (finding a Nightmare Door naturally in the world), it's clear the Nightmare Trial system is a significant part of the game's content rather than a side feature.
What are the collectible trophies?
Two silver trophies track full collectible completion: Crate Collector for all Material Crates and Full Barrel for all Whisky Bottles. Both require thorough exploration across every area in the game.
Material Crates feed directly into suit crafting, which connects to Adamantium Armory, the gold trophy for fully upgrading your health through suits. Collecting crates isn't just a checklist item; it's the resource loop that unlocks one of the four gold trophies. Prioritizing crate locations early keeps the health upgrade path from stalling late in the game.
Whisky Bottles appear to be pure collectibles with no direct mechanical benefit beyond Full Barrel and the first-bottle bronze But a Dram.
Combat trophies: what to grind and when
Three bronze trophies track specific kill counts with specific tools:
- Cut Just As Deep: 100 kills with Helix Claws
- Spiral Cut: 75 kills with Tornado Spin
- Parry Perfected: 500 parries
Parry 500 times sounds like a grind, but parrying is your core defensive tool throughout the game. Testing the parry system consistently in every fight means this one should arrive naturally well before the credits roll. The weapon-specific kill trophies are more deliberate. Equipping Helix Claws and using Tornado Spin regularly from early chapters prevents a backloaded grind.
Blindsided requires 10 stealth kills on enemies blinded by Jean. That's a character-ability interaction that you need to actively set up rather than stumble into. Plan for it whenever Jean's ability is available.

Is the platinum difficult?
Based on the trophy list structure, the platinum sits in the moderate range. There's no trophy tied to completing the game on the hardest difficulty, which removes the biggest barrier most action game platinums put in place. The main challenges are:
- Hitting Player Level 36 and Adaptation Level 10 (time investment)
- Finding all Material Crates and Whisky Bottles (exploration thoroughness)
- Unlocking the hidden Nightmare Trial memory (specific knowledge required)
- Not missing the time-sensitive bronze trophies during story sections
The boss kill silvers will come naturally through story progression since Omega Red, the Sentinel Prototype, Deathstrike, Sabretooth, and Essex all appear to be mandatory encounters.
