All Fallout 4 Achievements (& How To Get Them)

May 7, 2024

If you’re on your way to getting Platinum in Fallout 4, here’s our list of all trophies and achievements and a guide on how to get them.

Fallout 4 is a big game where a lot depends on your actions and choices. As a result, getting Platinum becomes a real challenge. Therefore, in this guide, you will learn how to get every Trophy and Achievement in Fallout 4.

Of course, some of the achievements will be unlocked as you progress through the story. However, most of them will require special attention, especially those added with DLCs.

There are two ways to scrap items in Fallout 4 and convert them into resources; this guide explains how both of them work.

Fallout 4 All Trophies and Achievements

The base version of Fallout 4 has 50 achievements, which can take over 100 hours to reach Platinum. But if you purchased all the DLCs, then the total number increases to 84. As a result, be prepared to spend another couple of dozen hours more to unlock them all.
