There are 50 trophies in Black Ops 2 that you need to earn to get the Platinum, and these trophies won't be the most difficult to earn, especially with our trophy list and roadmap guide for Black Ops 2 that will ensure you grab all the trophies you need in the Campaign, Multiplayer, and Zombies. We also have guides on the achievements related to the DLC Map Packs, so you can claim 100% on all achievements!
League Play is not available in Black Ops 2's PS4 and PS5 Ports; therefore, the requirements for the "Big Leagues" trophy have been changed to something easier.
We've also got the achievements for the optional DLC Packs below the base game, as you only need the base game achievements for the Platinum.
