Introduction
Credit to CyricZ for his guides.

This guide is pretty late considering this game has been out for a little over a year on PC, but I thought I would make it as the only other achievement guide available on Steam is incomplete. Hope this helps anyone.

The game itself really isn't difficult to unlock all the achievements for, it's just very time consuming. Only do this if you have the time for it and don't mind wasting it.

You'll have to complete the game a minimum of 3 times. Once on Normal, once on Hard, and once on Legend.

Difficulty
Indomitable
Clear Normal Mode without reverting to Easy Mode.


Unfortunately this won't unlock if you complete the game on a harder difficulty, so you'll have to play on Normal either way. I suggest your first playthrough being on Normal, then making a clear game data on Hard so that you have all your skills unlocked.

Heir to the Legend
Clear Legend Mode.


This difficulty unlocks after you complete the game on Hard (even on NG+), so let this be the last achievement you go for after you complete everything else.
Collectibles + Substories
Way of the Key Master
Open five coin lockers.


There are 100 coin lockers in the game, 50 above ground and 50 underground. You only need to open 5 for the achievement, however feel free to go for all if you like.
Refer to these guides for the locations of the keys: Above ground[gamefaqs.gamespot.com]
Underground[gamefaqs.gamespot.com]

Substory Novice
Complete or finish four substories.



Substory Helper
Complete or finish twenty substories.



Substory Lover
Complete or finish forty substories.



Substory Champion
Complete or finish all substories.


There are 63 substories in this game, 16 for each character except Saejima, only having 15.
Refer to this guide for all the substories and how to complete them: Substories[gamefaqs.gamespot.com]

Emblem Collector
Collect ten emblems from survivors during gang encounters.


Gang Encounters are a "side activity" exclusive to Kiryu. Go to Theater Square and you'll see a guy named Akaishi, who is a part of a neighborhood watch group called Kamurocho Guard, being beat up by some gang members. Kiryu will intervene and beat up these gang members. Akaishi will then thank you, and ask you for your help against these gangs in town. Now, these gang members spawn randomly around town, and you'll notice them because they wear the color of their gang. Beat a certain number of a gang, and you'll be able to face their leader.
After you defeat a gang leader, you'll be done with that certain gang, but you will see some "survivors" of said gang wandering around town. Defeat them and they'll give you an emblem. Earn 10 emblems for the achievement.
Refer to this guide for information on all the gangs in the game: Gang Encounters[gamefaqs.gamespot.com]

Weapon Master
Create one or more weapons for each weapon category.


There are 10 weapon categories. Bats/Clubs, Polearms, Blades, Hammers, Knuckles, Tonfa, Nunchaku, Kali Sticks/Double Swords, Guns, and Others. You only need to create 1 of each category to unlock this achievement.
Refer to this guide for information on modding weapons: Weapon Modding[gamefaqs.gamespot.com]

Revelation Seeker
Acquire three Revelations.


There are 12 Revelations in this game, you only need 3 to unlock this achievement.
Refer to this guide for information on all the Revelations: Revelations[gamefaqs.gamespot.com]

Walking Bank
Possess 10,000,000 yen or more.


There are several ways to easily earn 10,000,000 yen in this game. You can gamble using cheat items to win chips, then exchange those chips for Platinum Plates and sell them. You can complete the game (Normal = 2,000,000 yen, Hard = 3,000,000 yen, Legend = 5,000,000 yen). Tanimura also has a substory (A Dangerous Game) which rewards you with 3,000,000 yen for completing. These are probably the easiest methods to quickly obtain large sums of money.

Akiyama the Hoarder
Earn 1,000,000 yen playing as Akiyama.


Self explanatory. What I suggest is using cheat items with Tanimura to acquire 10,000 casino points for the "Tanimura the Gambler" achievement, exchanging the points for Platinum Plates, but don't sell them yet. Switch to Akiyama then sell them with him. This way you get both achievements easily.

Saejima the Slinger
Purchase five guns playing as Saejima.


Cheapest gun is the 9mm Automatic Pistol sold at the Rooftop Weapon Shop which costs 120,000 yen. Buy 5 of it.

Tanimura the Gambler
Acquire 10,000 casino points playing as Tanimura.


Self explanatory. Just use cheat items and you'll get 10,000 points relatively quickly.
Refer to this guide for information on cheat items: Gambling Cheat Items[gamefaqs.gamespot.com]

Memo Master
Collect all Memos in the Pause Menu.


Self explanatory. Refer to this guide for a full list of the Memos: Memos[gamefaqs.gamespot.com]
Other
Fashionista
Gather at least one outfit from each category in "Hostess Maker."


Note: If you miss this achievement, you can't complete it unless you start a new game.
This achievement requires you to buy one of every type of outfit for the Hostess Maker minigame. There are 23 outfits you can buy, however you only unlock a few every 3 or 4 shifts you complete so this achievement is a bit time consuming. Be very careful not to accidentally complete the minigame too quickly or you won't be able to unlock the achievement unless you start a new game. Because you only unlock a few outfits every 3-4 shifts, it will take some shifts of you not doing anything in order not to reach #1 too early.
Refer to this guide for information on the minigame: Hostess Maker[gamefaqs.gamespot.com]

Star of the Coliseum
Acquire the title "Star of the Coliseum."


While both Kiryu and Saejima can fight in the Coliseum, this achievement is only unlockable by Saejima due to the fact that only he can earn the title of "Star of the Coliseum".
Refer to this guide for information on the Coliseum: Coliseum[gamefaqs.gamespot.com]

Ultimate Challenger
Clear all Ultimate Skill missions.


Ultimate Matches are "challenges" unlocked after beating the game. They are accessible from the Main Menu. There are 10 Melee Matches, 5 One-on-One Matches, 10 Challenge Matches, 5 Team Matches, and 5 Ultimate Matches. Most of them are straightforward, but some can be very annoying.
Refer to this guide for information on Ultimate Matches: Ultimate Match[gamefaqs.gamespot.com]

Fearsome Foursome
Max out all characters to level 20.


You should have this unlocked after beating the game and finishing all substories, however if you don't have it, you can use the Coliseum for Kiryu and Saejima, the IF7-R gives 2,000 exp the first time you beat an opponent, and you can finish a hostess storyline for 10,000 exp.

Gourmet of Kamurocho
Order something at least once at each restaurant.


Here is a list of the restaurants:

Some restaurants e.g Smile Burger give you the option to "take out", you must choose "Eat in" for this to count.

Also, to decrease your health in order to be able to eat, use Squid Bait (available at the Docks) which slightly decreases your health when eaten.

The Joy of Gifting
Have a hostess wear a present you give her.


When you go to a cabaret club and talk to a hostess, you'll have the option of giving her a gift. If she likes the gift, she'll wear it the next time you visit. Here's a list of the hostesses and their preferred gifts (you can purchase them from Milestone in the Underground Mall):

A smash is basically a heat action. In order to do it, when the ball is going towards your opponent, hold L2. It'll stare at their chest, slow down the action, and build up Heat. When your Heat bar is full, press Triangle when the ball's coming to you to perform a smash. You'll know you did it when a cutscene plays.

I obtained a total of 10 gang emblems and didn't get the achievement, I spent 5 of them before totalling 10 so if you are going for this achievement make sure to hang on to your emblems
Axon  [author] 18 Jan @ 9:03am 
I see, in that case I'll update the guide to include that. Thanks!
Jensen "Paper Launch" Huang 18 Jan @ 6:32am 
yes, an old gamefaqs guide is posted around everywhere that references the "off-shoulder" which i imagine was the original name. strapless makes more sense in american english, so it seems they changed it for the remaster.

i verified the items are the same by the item description, then was able to complete the gifting achieve for my gurl.
Axon  [author] 18 Jan @ 2:32am 
Oh I never realized that it was renamed on PC. So the Off-shoulder dress is just renamed as Strapless dress?
Jensen "Paper Launch" Huang 16 Jan @ 11:18pm 
i couldn't get casino rookie to pop by just playing a round. I won black jack, roulette and baccarat then it popped. didn't win poker, but played a round then selected quit.

@adams_apple they aren't called off-shoulder like that one guide that's copied everywhere says. on my steam release they are called 'strapless dress'. I gifted one to Shizuka and she wore it next time I hit her up for some veggie stix :takemymoney:
Axon  [author] 31 Dec, 2024 @ 11:00am 
Oh I wasn't aware. The source I checked online said that the outfits from Milestone work just fine. What store worked for you?
adams_apple 31 Dec, 2024 @ 8:37am 
Milestone does not sell off-shoulder dresses for Joy of Gifting. The hostesses hate everything you buy for them.
Amogitymogus 28 Feb, 2024 @ 7:50pm 
Ok thank you, I appreciate you. I got the Fashionista achievement. It turns out that whatever dresses you buy it saves for your next hostess. I thought it would reset for each hostess so I kind of got nervous
Axon  [author] 28 Feb, 2024 @ 12:03pm 
Honestly I completely forgot the details on this achievement lol. iirc you unlock new items every three shifts so if you haven't already, try completing 3 shifts and see if you unlock anything new? If you still don't then unfortunately I don't really know what the solution is. As for your second question, I believe you can buy the remaining 3 dresses on your next hostess but please make sure to research first as like I said, I forgot everything involved with that achievement. Good luck!
Amogitymogus 26 Feb, 2024 @ 4:54pm 
For the Fashionista achievement, I'm kind of having trouble. Right now, I'm stuck on Rank 2 with Hiyori (SSS right now) because I thought I could get Fashionista over with, and I bought all 20 dresses so far of the 23. The only ones I'm missing are: Maid, Schoolgirl and Cheongsam based on trueachievements. I don't know why but every time I do a shift there's no pop up that says new inventory has arrived, it's just the same repetitive shift with the Super Service animations. I even bought all variations of the 20 unlocked dresses so far, and still nothing new is coming. Any fix to this...?

Oh yes, and one more question, if I do decide to rank Hiyori to Rank 1, can I just buy the remaining 3 dresses on my next hostess, or do I have to restart the collection again...?

Thank you, I appreciate you
