Exclamation Win at winning trophy

Hello !

Win at Winning
Play through The Run on Extreme Difficulty


To get this one, should I play the run from the start on easy, and then turn difficulty to hard during the last race, or can I use chapter selection to start directly at stage 10 on easy, and then change the difficulty during the last race ?

Thanks for your answeres.

I believe you can use chapter selection to start directly at stage 10 on easy, and then change the difficulty during the last race. But don't quote me on it and not sure if the recent patch changed the fact that you can do this.

I did this fine over the weekend, game was fully patched. Word of warning though that train is a pain in the arse, so have full boost going into the tunnel, boost shortly after dodging the train then boost again just as you get around the corner. I couldn't for the life of me do it without boosting just after dodging the train.

Also after the bridge part once you have turned right you can go straight on through the turning barrier and carry on straight to the train, this way you can get better speed up on the straight to the train tracks and also don't have to watch the mini cut scene.

You could do but it be much easier to just do this.

1. Play through The Run mode on any difficulty to unlock Extreme

2. Once finished select The Run and goto Stage Select and chose Stage 10

3. Play through Stage 10 on Easy till the final race.

4. Once the final race has loaded, pause and change the difficulty to Extreme.

5. Play the the last race on Extreme to unlock the Win at Winning trophy.

No need to play the whole of stage 10 on extreme.

Just want to confirm this is all you have to do for those still uncertain. Exactly what I did today with a fully up to date game, and trophy popped at the end of the final race.

I suggest watching the video in the Trophy Guide for a quicker refresher before diving in. Save a full thing of boost for the subway section and for after the final cut scene after weaving through the shipping containers and you'll be golden.

FINALLY did this! Bloody event took 60-70 tries over three nights. So frustrating. If the bridge doesn't get you, the train will. If not the train, then the crates. If not the crates, some random traffic!

Must be the most annoying trophy in the game. Thank God for the workaround; I couldn't imagine doing it legit.
