Mortal Kombat vs. DC Universe Trophy Guide
  Worlds Remade - Complete Mortal Kombat Story This requires you to complete the games story mode. There is no real strategy to this trophy. Just make sure you set the gameplay difficulty to Very Easy because it doesn't matter what difficulty you play on. You do not have to do the story mode in one sitting, but collectively, if you win all of your matches, it shouldn't take more than an hour to an hour and a half to finish. Dark Khan is relatively cheap no matter what difficulty you set it on, so try hit and run tactics. Keep your distance and make sure to jump whenever you see him lift his leg for his earthquake move.  Universe Reborn - Complete DC Universe Story This is basically the Same as the 'World's Remade' trophy above except this time you have to complete the story mode with a DC Universe character.  The Competitor - Play 200 Versus matches The most efficient way to obtain this trophy is to go for the Relentless trophy (since these do count as "Versus" matches). After that, set the gameplay options to 1 round matches and 30 second rounds. Use your first 40 matches to perform everyone's Fatalities and Heroic Brutalities for The Finisher trophy. That leaves 60 more you can either boost on your own, play more online, or play with some buddies.  Fatality! - Perform a Fatality! Quite simple, you'll get this once you do your first fatality when going for 'The Finisher' trophy. A full list of Fatalities and Heroic Brutalities can be found here: Mortal Kombat vs DC Universe Move List I used this when going for the fatality trophies, so I can confirm they are all correct. If you have any issues performing these, here are some tips. 1 - You can hold block to perform fatalities and brutalities, just remember you MUST let go of block before hitting the final button. 2 - If the last motion of the fatality is Up, you can either hold block to hit up and then QUICKLY let go of block and hit the final button OR you can allow your character to jump but WAIT until he/she lands to hit the final button. 3 - If you have any issues with distance, try performing them differently. 99% of the time, I found that all of the ones that said Close, One Step Away, and Sweep Distance could all be done right next to the opponent. In fact some that said Sweep Distance would not even work for me unless I was right next to them.  Heroic Brutality! - Perform a Heroic Brutality This is the basically the same as the 'Fatality' trophy above except this time you have to perform a heroic brutality.  Combo Champion - Perform a 10-Hit Combo in Arcade Mode This is a very simple trophy which can be done by many characters. Some good suggestions would be Lui Kang (any normal combo linked to his Bicycle Kick), Sonya (again, any normal combo linked to her Bicycle Kick) or The Flash (  , ,  -  + ). Tarkatan Champion - Complete Baraka's Kombo Challenge Please see the 'Emperor of Outworld' trophy below for a lot more information.

Trophy Guide
 Master of Souls - Complete Shang Tsung's Kombo Challenge Please see the 'Emperor of Outworld' trophy below for a lot more information.  SHAZAM! - Complete Captain Marvel's Kombo Challenge Please see the 'Emperor of Outworld' trophy below for a lot more information.  Special Forces - Complete Sonya's Kombo Challenge Please see the 'Emperor of Outworld' trophy below for a lot more information.  Grand Master - Complete Sub-Zero's Kombo Challenge Please see the 'Emperor of Outworld' trophy below for a lot more information.  The Man of Steel - Complete Superman's Kombo Challenge Please see the 'Emperor of Outworld' trophy below for a lot more information.  Princess Diana - Complete Wonder Woman's Kombo Challenge Please see the 'Emperor of Outworld' trophy below for a lot more information.   Omega Effect - Complete Darkseid's Kombo Challenge Please see the 'Emperor of Outworld' trophy below for a lot more information.  Emperor of Outworld - Complete Shao Kahn's Kombo Challenge This and the 21 trophies above are all obtained by playing the games Kombo Challenge mode. The kombo challenge mode makes you play as all the characters in the game. Each character has 10 challenges for you to perform, the challenges get longer and harder as you progress through each one. Unfortunately, there is no way to boost or make these any easier, you have to do exactly what the trial says to do and you have to do it on your own. Here are some general tips to help you out: 1 - Any move that requires a quarter-circle movement (like Down-Back or Down-Forward) can be done by just holding the d-pad in the diagonal direction for the move. 2 - For a lot of the air-juggle type combos, I found a lot of them were done much easier if done against Shao Khan or Darkseid. These 2 characters seemed to have much larger hit boxes than the others, giving you more room for error. 3 - Take breaks and switch trials/characters regularly. The more time you spend on one particular trial or character, the more irritated you will become and the more likely you are to make easily avoidable mistakes. I typically would not practice a trial for more than 10 minutes before moving on. 4 - There are some "timed" moves that do not show up as timed on the combo explanation at the top of the screen. The best example of this is Scorpions #10 trial. At the end of the trial (right after the jumping punch that sets up a air combo juggle) you need to perform a 3 button combo that adds a fourth kick at the end and then link that to the double Teleportation Punch. If you perform the Teleportation Punch too early, it will stop the 4 hit combo and you will not have enough hits to complete the trial and if you do it too late, your opponent will hit the ground before you can Teleport Punch. You have to enter the move (  - +  ) At the exact moment the last kick connects. This will cause Scorpion to IMMEDIATELY perform the move. This is not considered a pro-move, but it does have a specific time in which you have to do it.I have some videos that can help a lot with obtaining these trophies. Please see the following posts after the guide below.  Mortal Kombat Champion - Finish Arcade Mode with a Mortal Kombat Character Just finish the arcade mode with one Mortal Kombat character. Gameplay options do not prevent you from obtaining this, so set it to Very Easy, 1 round matches, and 30 second rounds.  Super Hero - Finish Arcade Mode with a DC Universe Character This is basically the same as the 'Mortal Kombat Champion' trophy above, except this time you will have to complete the arcade mode as a DC Universe character.  The Pugilist - Perform Klose Kombat Anytime during any match, just grab your opponent with the  button. This trophy can actually be obtained if the computer does it to you and it can be obtained even if it is countered and not fully completed. Free Fallin' - Perform a Free-Fall Transition Almost all of the stages have Free Fall transitions. Just get your opponent close to the edge and continue to beat on them. Eventually one of the stronger hits (like an uppercut) will send them over the ledge into "Free Fall" mode.  Less Talk, More Fight! - Win a Chat Room Match This should come eventually when going for the 'Relentless' Trophy. This can be boosted so use the boosting thread below to find a partner to help you: http://www.ps3trophies.org/forum/mortal-kombat-vs-dc-universe/5802-trophy-boosting-thread.html#post62381  Humiliation - Get a Flawless Victory Online This comes from winning 1 round with a Flawless Victory, not both rounds of a match. You can either attempt this the legit way (just remember that ALL blocked moves result in chip damage meaning if you block just a regular punch or kick, you will not get this trophy). Just create an online room called 'FLAWLESS TROPHY' and wait for someone to join in and trade the trophy with you, alternatively you can boost this using the boosting thread below: http://www.ps3trophies.org/forum/mortal-kombat-vs-dc-universe/5802-trophy-boosting-thread.html#post62381 Last edited by Rockets88; 02-20-2011 at 11:47 AM.

  DC Arcade Champion - Complete Arcade Mode with all DC characters Pretty self explanatory. Just finish the arcade mode with all DC Universe characters. Make sure to set it to Very Easy, 1 Round, and 30 Second Rounds. Also remember that you need to complete Arcade mode with Darkseid as well to get this trophy, so do this after obtaining the 'Universe Reborn' trophy.  MK Arcade Champion - Complete Arcade Mode with all MK characters This is basically the same as the 'DC Arcade Champion' trophy except you need to complete the arcade mode with all the Mortal Kombat caracters. Just remember to complete Arcade mode with Shao Khan as well, so do this after obtaining the 'World's Remade' trophy.  Relentless! - Play 100 Chat Lobby Matches Just play 100 online matches. This can be boosted, but it will not go much faster than just jumping into one of the larger rooms and fighting anyone that is available. Remember because it just says 'play' you don't have to win the matches.   The Ultimate Evil- Complete Both Mortal Kombat and DC Universe Story Modes You will obtain this simply by completing both of the games story modes. Just refer tothe 'World's Remade' and 'Universe Reborn' trophies.  The Finisher - Perform all Fatalities and Heroic Brutalities You should go for this trophy when going for 'The Competitor' trophy. Just use 40 matches to do all of the moves. A full list can be found below: Mortal Kombat vs DC Universe Move List  Arcade Master - Beat Arcade Mode on Max Difficulty Without Continuing This is easier than it sounds. Many characters have quick spammable moves that either knocks the opponent far away when it connects, or they will just sit there and block it. You can still set it to 1 Round, 30 second Rounds to get this trophy. I got this by using Darkseid and spamming his Eye Laser ( - +  ). All of the opponents I faced did nothing but sit there and block, but eventually a shot gets through and they will get hit by it. Make sure if you go this route, choose to fight DC characters only. I have found that Scorpion will either Slide or Teleport punch every time you try to use this move. No one on the DC side will do this.Another Method: I found a decent way of getting arcade master on a board the other day, basically you choose shang tsung against DC characters, 1 round, 30 sec rounds. Then just spam them with Square combos, they either cop it or block. The only characters I had trouble against were wonder woman and lex luthor, in which case i would spam them with flaming skulls ( ,, , , ). It took maybe 2 or three tries to get through it, but it wasn't hard. Supreme Champion - Complete all Kombo Challenges For this trophy you are required to complete all of the characters kombo challenges, for both the Mortal Kombat side & DC Universe side. Please refer to the Kombo Challenge tips listed under the 'Emperor of Outworld' trophy. Also see the videos below after the guide.  Super Moves Master - Perform All Super Moves and Promoves This requires you to perfrom all super moves and promoves, this means for all of the Mortal Kombat characters & DC Universe characters. The easiest way to do these is to perform them in practice mode. Two very good lists for these are: Smejk's Pro-Move list Midway Boards - Guide to Getting the Pro/Super Moves Trophy/Achievement   Platinum Trophy - You Unlocked All Trophies! Simply obtain all of the other trophies in the game to earn this platinum trophy. Last edited by Rockets88; 02-20-2011 at 12:06 PM. Reason: Editorial Sweep |

Here are videos for the Mortal Kombat side of the Kombo Challenges. I did not put them in alphabetical order, but the order in which they appear on the character select screen, Shao Khan being last.

Everything BUT the Kombo Challenge trophies, I would rate a 1 out of 10. Even the Arcade Master trophy is relatively easy to get.
The Kombo Challenge trophies, however, make up more than half of the trophies in the game. One for each of the 22 characters (this includes Shao Khan and Darkseid) and then the gold trophy for doing them all. These are true test of your patience. Took me about 2 weeks to get them all, but I would not allow myself to play for hours while getting frustrated. I would go in and try a few different ones for about an hour everyday and eventually, they all clicked. |

Great Guide,
The layout is good, but it may need to be re-formatted and pieced together a-la the other guides here - but for your first go at it, awesome. I agree on the difficulty, the kombo challenges are the only HARD ones, but your advice is VERY fitting to it. I found a decent way of getting arcade master on a board the other day (cant remember which one) where-by you choose shang tsung against DC characters, 1 round, 30 sec rounds, then just spam them with Square combos. They either cop it or block, the only characters I had trouble against were wonder woman and lex luthor, in which case i would spam them with flaming skulls (<,<, Triangle, Square, Triangle). It took maybe 2 or three tries to get through it, but it wasn't hard. Again, well done Two Thumbs Up!

Alright, everything is formatted and complete. I am hoping Webb can move the posts around to get the videos up higher in the post and I have added the tip from disinformation about using Shang Tsung for the Arcade Master trophy.

Any idea how the game registers the MK and DC Arcade Champion trophies? Is having unlocked the specific character's ending enough? So if I go through arcade with, say Shang Tsung, then intentionally lose to Dark Khan, pick continue and select Batman, then win Khan, will I get Batman's ending and will it count towards DC Arcade Champion?
I know it's easy to go through it with all characters, but it would be even easier to go through it with one character I'm really good at and then switch at the Khan fight.
