We Were Here Forever Walkthrough cover

The fourth game in the “We Were Here” series, We Were Here Forever maintains the tone and crafty puzzle co-op elements that made the series so memorable to many players. This time around, however, things take a grim turn as a heavy choice can change the outcome in the end.

In this trophy guide, we’ll tell you everything you need to know about getting the platinum trophy for We Were Here Forever.

A headset is most definitely needed.

There are a total of 39 trophies to earn in total. And since this is strictly a multiplayer game, this also applies to your companion.

There aren’t any missable trophies in We Were Here Forever. But you will have to do this game twice with a friend in order to unlock all the trophies – either as the player that solves the puzzle or the one who decodes the clues.

Player A Trophies: From this point, we'll refer to the player who completes puzzles as Player A. The following are the trophies associated with them and what you need to do to unlock them.

Carried: Be the first one to escape the Catacombs in Chapter 1.

Live Entertainment: For this trophy, you’ll need to be one going through The Trial Rooms in Chapter 1. Note that you need to be one to exit the Catacombs first.

Monster Bargain: In chapter 4, be the one to go and talk with the Guardian.

The Foundation: Be the one to pick up the astrolabe piece after forging the item in Chapter 4.

Player B Trophies: From this point onward, we'll refer to the one who reads and works out the clues for Player A as Player B. The list below is the trophies associated with that. We'll also tell you how you can obtain them.

Projecting: During Chapter 1’s Dial Rooms puzzle, you must be the one in control of the projector. To be this player, you must be the last to exit the Catacombs.

The final trio of trophies to talk about are the end-game ones. Specifically, One Must Remain, Evermore, and Forlorn. From what we can tell, it doesn’t matter if you’ve been playing as either Player A or Player B the entire time. All that matters is that one player leaves and the other stays. Both players still get receive the One Must Remain Gold trophy upon completing the game.

The rest of the trophies for We Were Here Forever are earned by progressing in the game. They will unlock either by reaching a checkpoint or finishing a puzzle. Otherwise, that’s it for this trophy guide and trophy list for We Were Here Forever on PlayStation. Happy hunting, trophy hunters.
