- Fallen City Brawl trophy guide: A stage-first route through story, combat, difficulty, and co-op objectives.
- Best order: Clear all seven stages first, then handle combat mastery and difficulty cleanup.
- Co-op note: Local co-op trophies require two players and cannot be earned solo.
- Key tip: Rotate weapons, RIOT supers, and support options during normal runs to bank combat objectives early.
- Difficulty strategy: Learn enemy patterns on lower difficulty before attempting challenge clears.
Trophy and Achievement Overview
Fallen City Brawl rewards completion across five objective categories: story and stage progress, combat mastery, difficulty and challenge clears, local co-op objectives, and unlockable cleanup. The trophy list is structured so that most story progress arrives naturally during a first campaign run, while combat-use and co-op objectives benefit from intentional planning. Console trophies released alongside the October 28, 2026 console launch, so this guide reflects the current 2026 completion route.
Steam achievements and console trophies track the same objective categories but should be tracked separately. Check your platform's list before starting the final cleanup route.
| Objective Category | Difficulty | Best Route Stage |
|---|---|---|
| Story and Stage Completion | Low to medium | First campaign run |
| Combat Mastery | Medium | During normal runs plus cleanup |
| Difficulty and Challenge Clears | High | Second and third runs |
| Local Co-Op Objectives | Medium | Dedicated co-op run |
| Unlockables and Cleanup | Medium to high | Final cleanup passes |
Stage-by-Stage Completion Route
The campaign spans seven stages, and story trophies unlock by simply reaching the required end points. Prioritize survival over speed during the first run so you arrive at cleanup with strong fundamentals and fewer repeated encounters.
| Stage | Focus | Trophy-Relevant Habit |
|---|---|---|
| Stage 1 | Basic rhythm | Practice grabs and throws to create space |
| Stage 2 | Crowd control | Use a weapon to control range safely |
| Stage 3 | Resource management | Conserve RIOT attacks for pressure moments |
| Stage 4 | Defensive timing | Convert one successful counter into a punish |
| Stage 5 | Hazard awareness | Identify hazards before engaging groups |
| Stage 6 | Endurance | Keep one emergency option ready per wave |
| Stage 7 | Final survival | Spend resources before situations become fatal |
Stage-progress objectives are easiest during the initial route, but unfinished requirements can be revisited through later runs where available. Note any stage-specific challenge you miss so cleanup targets it directly.
Combat Mastery Objectives
Combat trophies ask you to use the game's full toolkit: weapons, mercenary support, RIOT supers, and the wolf companion. Rather than grinding each in isolation, rotate them during ordinary encounters so cumulative progress builds naturally.
Weapons
- Interrupt dangerous group formations
- Save high-impact hits for armored targets
Mercenary Support
- Call support before being surrounded
- Use the opening to focus priority enemies
RIOT Supers
- Activate on crowds or boss recovery
- Keep one use for emergencies
Wolf Companion
- Maintain pressure while repositioning
- Pair with crowd-control tools
Do not spend every special attack on the first enemies of a stage. Save difficult groups for deliberate practice and keep an emergency option available for bosses and final encounters.
Difficulty and Challenge Clears
Difficulty trophies are the hardest block in the list. The reliable path is to learn enemy patterns on a lower difficulty first, then repeat the route while conserving health, weapons, support, and RIOT resources for boss fights and final-stage encounters.
Learn the campaign
Complete all seven stages on a comfortable difficulty. Record which encounters cost the most health and which boss patterns you have not fully read.
Drill defensive timing
Practice blocks, counters, and parries in stages 4 through 6 where isolated enemies let you test timing safely. Defensive skill reduces resource drain on higher difficulties.
Plan a resource route
Map out where health pickups, weapons, and quiet reset sections appear so the final stage is entered with a full emergency reserve.
Attempt the challenge run
Repeat the campaign under stricter conditions, using short confirmed combos, frequent repositioning, and reserved RIOT supers for unavoidable corners.
Local Co-Op Objectives
Co-op trophies are mode-specific and cannot be completed during a solo-only run. Use a dedicated two-player run after learning the stage route, with clear role division and staggered specials.
Assign one player to crowd control and the other to priority targets. Stagger your RIOT supers instead of activating both at once, and keep one emergency option for unexpected waves.
Completion Checklist:
- Clear all seven stages on the initial run
- Rotate weapons, support, RIOT supers, and companion for combat trophies
- Complete difficulty and challenge clears
- Finish a dedicated local co-op run
- Clean up remaining unlockables and cumulative goals
Trophy Guide FAQ
Q: Can I earn every Fallen City Brawl trophy in one playthrough?
No. Local co-op objectives require two players, and difficulty and challenge clears demand separate runs under stricter conditions. Plan at least two to three passes through the campaign.
Q: Which trophies are the hardest in the Fallen City Brawl trophy list?
Difficulty and challenge clears are rated high difficulty. They require reading boss patterns reliably and conserving health, weapons, support, and RIOT resources for the final encounters.
Q: Are co-op trophies missable in a solo run?
Co-op objectives are mode-specific rather than missable in the traditional sense. They cannot be completed solo, so schedule a dedicated two-player run separately.
Q: What is the best order for a completion route?
Finish the campaign normally first, bank combat-use objectives along the way, then complete difficulty clears, a co-op run, and finally unlockable cleanup against the shortest suitable stages.
