Each trophy below includes its unlock condition, chapter location, strategy, and any useful tips. Trophies are listed in the approximate order you'll encounter them during a natural playthrough.
Unlock Condition: Unlock all trophies.
Earn every other trophy in Mixtape to unlock the Platinum. No DLC is required. This will pop automatically after unlocking the final missing trophy.
Unlock Condition: Complete all memories in Rockford's room.
Chapter: 10 (unlocks after leaving Rockford's room)
This is story-related and cannot be missed. The trophy unlocks after completing the first major section of the game, once you leave Rockford's room at the end of Chapter 10. To ensure it pops, make sure you've interacted with every object and exhausted all dialogue with Cassandra and Slater during the bedroom sequences in Chapters 2 and 7.
Unlock Condition: Complete all memories in Cassandra's room.
Chapter: 18 (unlocks after Bodacious Cretaceous)
Story-related and unmissable. This unlocks after completing the second major section, once you leave Cassandra's room at the end of Chapter 18. Ensure you interact with all items and exhaust dialogue during Cassandra's bedroom sequences.
Unlock Condition: Complete all memories in Slater's room.
Chapter: 26 (unlocks after Starlight Video)
Story-related and unmissable. This auto-unlock comes after completing the third major section, once you leave Slater's room at the end of Chapter 26. Interact with all items and exhaust dialogue during Slater's bedroom sequences.
Unlock Condition: Complete the game.
Chapter: 30 — Finale
Automatically earned after completing Chapter 30, Finale, and watching the credits. Congratulations on finishing Mixtape!
Unlock Condition: Find everything in the bedrooms and all unique conversations.
Chapters: 2, 7, 13, 16, 23, 25
This is the most involved trophy in the game. You must interact with every item and exhaust all dialogue with Cassandra and Slater across multiple bedroom/exploration sequences.
Visual Cues: Items you haven't interacted with show a white dot. Already-checked items show a hollow/squiggly circle. New dialogue with Cassandra and Slater is also indicated by white dots over their heads.
Note on Chapter Select: If you use chapter select, the visual indicators reset and dialogue restarts, but the game still counts previously collected items. This can make tracking confusing, so we recommend getting this in one clean playthrough.
Key checkpoints:
If this doesn't unlock naturally, common misses are: the closed door in the hallway (Chapter 2), the curtain above the window in Cassandra's room, and the tape player in Slater's room.
Unlock Condition: Acquire all the items at the party.
Chapter: 29 — Party at the Ritz
In this chapter you play as Slater through a camcorder view. You need to accept and consume items from various partygoers. High-fives do not count toward this trophy.
Item locations in order:
Unlock Condition: Ollie a car.
Chapter: 1 — Skate to Rockford's
While skating at the very start, press X (PS5) / A (Xbox) to ollie over a car in the left lane. The shorter white or red cars are easiest. If you hit the car, the game automatically rewinds you a short distance to try again. This can also be earned in other skateboarding sections later if missed.
Unlock Condition: Kiss for 60 seconds.
Chapter: 3 — The Kiss
This chapter is a kissing minigame. Simply remain in the minigame for a full 60 seconds. The trophy won't unlock until you back out, so time it yourself or just wait what feels like a minute before exiting.
Unlock Condition: Don't crash once while escaping in the shopping cart.
Chapter: 5 — Shopping Cart Bomb
Steer with the left stick and keep yourself straight. Stick mostly to the center of the road and avoid hitting any cars. If you crash, you must restart the chapter from the beginning. The trophy unlocks when you reach the bottom of the hill and the ending cutscene plays.
Unlock Condition: Make Slater's secret slushy recipe.
Chapter: 8 — Ultimate Slushie
Slater's secret recipe is learned from a poster in his room later in the game, but you can do it the first time you enter this chapter. Mix Blue Crush, Bubblegum, Lime, and Orange — a quarter of each. The trophy unlocks immediately after the cup is filled.
Unlock Condition: Knock over 10 traffic cones during the skate from Rockford's house.
Chapter: 11 — Skate to Cassandra's
There are exactly 10 cones along the route. If you miss one, you must restart the chapter. Here is the precise location of each cone:
Tip: This is widely considered the hardest trophy in the game due to the overhead camera angle on cones 8–9. Take it slow and aim wide.
Unlock Condition: Throw a stone through the tyre swing.
Chapter: 12 — Skipping Stones
During the skipping stones minigame, aim at the tire swing hanging on the right side of the screen. You throw exactly where the small aim dot is, so aim at the top middle of the hole in the tire. You can retry as much as needed — the minigame only ends when you choose to exit after the characters finish talking.
Unlock Condition: Complete minimaster assembly in under 15 seconds.
Chapter: 17 — Cassandra's Rooftop (also referenced in Chapter 13)
After talking to Slater, he gives you the Minimaster (Game Boy-style device). You must swap the batteries in under 15 seconds:
If you fail, restart from Cassandra's Rooftop and speak to Slater again.
Unlock Condition: Hit only home runs as Cassandra.
Chapter: 14 — Softball
Your performance as Rockford doesn't matter. As Cassandra, you must hit every single pitch for a home run. One strike or miss means restarting the chapter.
After the first center pitch, each ball is thrown to the outside. Push the left stick fully in the direction of the target (up, down, left, or right), then swing when the outer circle lines up exactly with the target. The directions after the first hit appear to be randomized, so react quickly.
Unlock Condition: Throw 50 rolls at the house.
Chapter: 15 — Toilet Paper Attack
Keep throwing toilet paper rolls at the house until the trophy unlocks. You can stand in one place or move around — either works fine. Leave when you're ready after the trophy pops.
Unlock Condition: Hit 3 pig balloons.
Chapter: 16 — Floating on Sadness
While floating backwards through areas, you'll eventually fly above buildings and enter a section with large pig-shaped balloons. Steer into 3 of them as you float. The trophy doesn't unlock until the end of the section when you float into Rockford's house and the scene switches back to Cassandra's Room.
Unlock Condition: Take 20 photos in Bodacious Cretaceous.
Chapter: 18 — Bodacious Cretaceous
Take at least 20 photos before the end of the section. You can snap them all at once when you first get the camera, or spread them throughout the area. The final room where photos are possible is the one after the volcano room. The trophy unlocks immediately on your 20th photo.
Unlock Condition: Explode all objects on your way to the secret hideout.
Chapter: 19 — Skateboard Explosion
During this skating section, press L2 + R2 (PS5) or LT + RT (Xbox) to cause items to explode. Objects are highlighted with red lines when near. You can safely mash both triggers the entire way through. The trophy unlocks when you blow up the gumball machine while going through the mall, assuming you hit every prior object.
Unlock Condition: Paint the entire door in under 30 seconds.
Chapter: 21 — Door Painting
Use the large paint roller. Move to the top or bottom of a side edge, hold R2 / RT to paint, and roll the full height of the door. Move over slightly to cover a new strip, then roll back across. Repeat until the door is covered. You don't need 100% coverage — there's leeway for small missed spots. The trophy unlocks immediately during painting if you're fast enough.
Unlock Condition: Get the couch in place within 30 seconds.
Chapter: 22 — Couch Moving
Control Cassandra and Slater on either end using both sticks. Immediately start moving both characters right, taking as straight a path as possible through the middle. When you reach the right side, position the couch directly over the green drop zone — Cassandra and Slater's feet should be just outside the rectangle on the short sides. Press the drop button when the zone turns green.
Unlock Condition: Clear the leaves in under 45 seconds.
Chapter: 23 — Leaf Sweeping
Hold the sweep button to charge your broom swing, then release to blow large chunks of leaves away. Start from the middle to push most leaves outward, then circle the edge using uncharged sweeps to clear the remainder. The firepit circle turns green when all leaves are gone, unlocking the trophy.
Unlock Condition: Hit all the cans in under 30 seconds.
Chapter: 24 — Slingshot
Despite the description saying "cans," you must hit all cans AND bottles on top of the car. Start from one side and work to the other, shooting everything. Aim by placing your target just above Rockford's fingers while charging. The trophy unlocks immediately when the last object is hit.
Unlock Condition: Knock over all the character cut outs in the video store.
Chapter: 26 — Starlight Video
There are 5 character cutouts total: two at the ends of left aisles, two on the back wall, and one at the end of the aisle near the clerk. Do a lap around the outer walls while also knocking over tapes to find them all. The trophy unlocks immediately upon knocking over the 5th cutout. You have unlimited time.
Unlock Condition: Knock 200 VHS tapes off the shelves in the video store.
Chapter: 26 — Starlight Video
Walk around the store brushing against shelves to knock tapes off. Hold R2 / RT to hold out your hand and peel tapes off more aggressively. Keep circling the room until the trophy unlocks. You must actually rent tapes to finish the chapter, so you have plenty of time.
Unlock Condition: Don't miss a single jump or slide while rescuing Cassandra.
Chapter: 27 — The Run
This is an auto-running section. Press X / A to jump and Circle / B to slide under obstacles. Obstacles are very obvious — if there isn't a clear hole to slide under, jump over it. Some taller obstacles like fences might look like hits but don't count against you. The trophy unlocks when the cutscene starts before Rockford drops the firework in the trash can.
Unlock Condition: Don't miss any fireworks in the coastal cruise.
Chapter: 28 — Coastal Cruise
Mash L2 + R2 (PS5) or LT + RT (Xbox) continuously to set off fireworks as they appear on screen. The trophy unlocks right before the cutscene where the cars are back on the ground.
