Introduction

Welcome to the Destroy All Humans Trophy Guide (2020 PS4 Remake)! This is a faithful remake of the 2005 game of the same name, including the same story missions, structure, and largely the same extra content. This 2020 PS4 release of Destroy All Humans is not to be confused with the 2016 PS4 release of “Destroy All Humans!” (that old release was a simple PS2 Port). This full 2020 PS4 Remake features a new set of trophies. The best way to approach Platinum is to finish the story while doing optional objectives, then do all Challenges, lastly finish up any Miscellaneous trophies. You will find that about 90% of the combat-related trophies unlock naturally without trying or knowing what they are. Just enjoy the game and worry about trophies after the story.

Step 1: Complete the Main Missions While Attempting to Complete Optional Objectives

First step is to just play through all story missions while attempting to complete all optional objectives as you go so that you don’t need to replay missions later. None are too difficult to complete first run through a level, especially if you look up a solution for some of the more vague requirements beforehand. Follow the Destroy All Humans Optional Objectives Guide for the solutions. The mission also does need to be completed fully for each objective to count, which is another reason to try and do them all first go through each mission. If you failed an optional objective, you can replay the mission in your mothership by clicking on “Archives” > “Holopox Deck”.

In terms of upgrades, it’s recommended to fully upgrade the abilities in this order: Shields of Crypto & the Saucer (makes Optional Objectives easier), Crypto’s Zap-o-Matic (most used weapon with infinite ammo, frequently used in challenges), Ion Detonator (strongest weapon, frequently used in challenges for explosive kills), Psychokinesis (the last upgrade lets you lift vehicles which helps with challenges), Dash (only the bottom row that allows you to skate, important for Racing Challenges). The rest isn’t as important and can be neglected for now.

Step 2: Ace all Challenges (3 Stars)

After the story is finished you will have a large amount of DNA for upgrades, along with having all areas available to free roam. If you have not already you should now start working on the 4 challenges in each of the 6 free roam areas, getting 3 stars on each. It’s 24 Challenges total. Getting 3 Stars in all of them unlocks the Ace of Space trophy trophy.

See Destroy All Humans Challenges Guide.

Step 3: Cleanup Miscellaneous Trophies and Objectives

After acing all challenges, the only thing you should have left is cleaning up remaining miscellaneous trophies, and finishing any remaining optional objectives in missions. Refer to the trophy guide below, all miscellaneous trophies are super quick to do.

Down to the Challenge
Revisit a missionless invasion site and complete a challenge there
After the first story mission in each area, you can free roam around each of the 6 locations in the game. After doing this one time you will earn this trophy.
Invasion of the Body Swappers
Try out a new look for Crypto in the mothership’s archives
In the Archives section of the mothership you can enter the Skin Selection menu, where you can select alternate skins unlocked through the game. Scrolling over the skin shows the unlock requirement (they are all from completing optional objectives in specified missions). After unlocking any of the skins, go into the Skill Selection menu and equip the skin to unlock this trophy.
Return of the Clone II – Reloaded
Re-visit a mission in the mothership archive’s Holopoxdeck
After completing each story mission, you can replay them through the Holopox Deck section in the Mothership Archives.  After launching any mission from this menu you will earn this trophy.
Swift Harvest
Accelerate Brain Extract or Transmog by mashing that button like you mean it
Brain Extraction or item Transmog is done by targetting a person or item then pressing :square: . While the effect is active you can continue mashing the :square: button to speed the effect up, and when you do this the first time you will earn this trophy.
No Time to Waste
Destroy a human with a weapon and another with a psi ability at the same time
You can both shoot your weapons and use your PK or Brain Extract at the same time. The easiest way to get this trophy is to trigger a brain extract on a human then shoot and kill another.
Covert Thoughts
Stay covert by scanning primitive human thoughts
While you are in a Holobob it will gradually degrade as shown by the blue draining effect on the human body. You can refresh the Holobob by scanning any human with :tr: , and the first time you do this you will earn this trophy.
Harvest Season
Recover a Furon Probe
Furon Probes are collectibles that are spread around each of the 6 areas of the game. Picking them up gives 100 DNA points each, and the first one you pick up awards you this trophy. There isn’t any other trophy reason to grab them, so you don’t need to go out of your way searching for them if you don’t want to.

Rejected for Probing
Throw something into something else with the saucer’s Abducto Beam
In your saucer, during Mission 2 you will gain access to the Abducto Beam. Using this you can aim at an object, then press :r1: to pick the object up and hold it under your saucer. You can then hold and release :r1: and the object will be flung in the direction you are aiming. Using this, you need to destroy any object with another object. If you are doing the optional mission objectives, the one you are required to do while destroying the fairgrounds in Mission 2 will earn you this trophy.
Furonigami
Explore the more offbeat parts of the mothership
In the Archives section of the Mothership menu, there is the Furonigami section, where you can view concept art earned by completing challenges or optional objectives. Entering this menu for this first time will earn you this trophy.
Reduce, Abuse, Recycle
Transmogrify an object to replenish your ammunition
Once you receive the Disintegrator Ray, you will also gain the ability to transmogrify objects using your mind powers, turning them into ammo. This is done by targeting an item then hitting :sq: the same as if you were doing a brain extract. The first time you do this you will earn this trophy.
Hot to Trot
Evade a rocket by dashing
The Dashing Ability will be available after Mission 6: Aliens Stole my Brain Stem (Santa Modesta) and it allows you to make a shorter dash by pressing :o: . After having this unlocked, you need to dodge a rocket shot at you while on foot. These are shot by the army soldiers that will carry rocket launchers. Wait for one of these soldiers to shoot at you and you see the rocket coming towards you with the icon, then use your dodge at the last minute to avoid it.
Brain Drain
Consume a human brain to kickstart your shield regeneration
When you take damage your shield depletes and takes time before it recharges. If you perform a brain extract while your shield is damaged it will start to regenerate quicker. Doing this for the first time will award this trophy.
Simply Repulsive
Use your saucer’s Repulse-O-Tron to fend off homing missiles
The Repulse-O-Tron is an ability you gain with your saucer during Mission 7: This Island Suburbia (Santa Modesta).  This is performed by pressing :o: and sends a wave out from your saucer and will bounce away any missiles that get near you if timed correctly. Perform this one time to earn this trophy.
Gas-Guzzler Guzzler
Abduct and drain a vehicle to replenish your saucer’s shields
While in your saucer, pressing :tr: will drain any picked up item and absorb it into your shield.  For this trophy first, grab a vehicle using your Abudct-O-Beam, then absorb it into your shields.
When Two Humans Collide
Use PK to destroy a human with another human
At any time, grab a human with PK by pressing :r1: , then aim at another human and throw them at them to kill the second human.
Man’s Inhumanity to Man
Destroy multiple humans with a human-made explosive
Human-made explosives are any of the items that you can mentally explode by interacting them with :sq: , or alternatively the radioactive cows. An easy way to do this if you don’t get it naturally is to start Mission 3, then grab one of the cows at the beginning and throw them at the scientists who you are supposed to kill. This should trigger all the other cows and kill all the humans in this area at once, awarding the trophy.
Hop the Hoop
Display Furonic aeronautic prowess by soaring through giant human pastry without soiling your feet

In Santa Modesta, there is a donut shop near the TV station that has a large donut on its rooftop. For this trophy you need to jump through the middle of the donut using your jetpack. When you have dash unlocked, start on the ground and jetpack up to level with the middle, then dash through so that you don’t touch the sides of the donut hole. If done correctly you will be awarded the trophy after you pass through the middle.

Do Feed the Sharks
Demonstrate Furon free spirit near a warning sign placed by the human authorities

In Santa Modesta, there is a large beach that is normally populated with humans and a number of umbrellas. On this beach, you can find some lifeguard buildings, and beside them will be a sign warning about sharks. From here grab a human, and toss them into the ocean to earn this trophy.

As Is Tradition
Abduct a cow with your saucer
While in your saucer, use your Abducto-o-Ray with :r1: to grab a cow. They are most easily found all over the place in Turnipseed Farms.
Pyrokinesis
Set something on fire, then use it to destroy a hapless human

Once you have the Disintegrator Ray, you can return to Rockwell or Turnipseed Farm and find a hay bale around either area. Shoot the hay bale with the Disintegrator Ray to light it on fire, then grab it and kill a human with it to earn this trophy.

Fly, My Pretties
Throw a human into the air and juggle them
At any time, grab a human using PK and throw them up into the air. You then need to follow them and catch them again before they hit the ground.
Unilateral Disarmament
Destroy a certain irritating simian warlord once and for all

    Great Guide as Usual Pyx. Why a 4/10 though? Is it because of the challenges? If so, how difficult are they? It’s my first time playing this game. Thanks!

      It’s a 4/10 because of some of the challenges and optional objectives and also the last bosses.
      It’s nothing too challenging with a guide – most of it is quite easy, just a few things here and there that will take some trial and error 🙂

      I found it to be a fun platinum with a good mix of everything.

    Too bad the game doesn’t retain the cheats like the original game did. That would have been cool

    The Mandatory Options is glitched for me. Got them all but the trophy never popped. Anyone got any idea?

      I’ve seen it’s the 1.05 patch has made this trophy bugged. Hoping for a fix soon.

      Same here. I’m not sure what the issue is.

      Seems the 1.06 patch that just dropped today fixes this bug.

    I think that 4/10 difficulty is too low. Some of challenges are impossible and needs you to be perfect

      Exactly what I was thinking, the side missions that requiered you to Ace them, you do have to be perfect to score for the 3 star. Especially in Abduction, and the last race in Capitol. Should be at least 6/10 difficulty, too much trial and error to be 4/10. 5/10, should be average.
