Modern Warfare 4 has 18 trophies and achievements, all in the campaign (8 Gold and 10 Silver on PlayStation, with no Platinum). None is missable, Multiplayer and DMZ have none, and PowerPyx puts the full set at 15 or more hours over at least two playthroughs, one of them on Realism difficulty.
Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 4 has 18 trophies, all earned in the campaign: 8 Gold and 10 Silver, with no Platinum listed, and Multiplayer and DMZ have no trophies at all (PowerPyx, Oct 18, 2026). PowerPyx rates the set 6 out of 10 for difficulty, with no missable trophies and a minimum of two playthroughs: one on any difficulty, one on Realism. The hardest is Was it Worth It?, for finishing on Realism. The same 18 are achievements on Xbox and PC; Steam's store data for the game shows no achievements block as of Oct 25, 2026 (Steam), so the names here come from guide outlets.

Roadmap
PowerPyx's roadmap has three steps (PowerPyx, Oct 18, 2026):
- Story on any difficulty, doing each mission's trophy and the collectibles as you go: about 8 hours. TheGamer suggests Recruit for this run, so notes and mission challenges come easily (TheGamer, Oct 22, 2026).
- Story on Realism for Was it Worth It?: about 7 hours. Realism unlocks once you finish the campaign on any difficulty (Game Rant, Oct 19, 2026).
- Mission select cleanup for anything left, such as the second of the two Assassins trophies.
Realism sits above Hardened and Veteran in the difficulty list, so the "Hardened or harder" and "Veteran or higher" trophies also count on that run, and you can change difficulty at any time with "Change Difficulty" in the menu (Game Rant, Oct 19, 2026). There are no manual saves, only one campaign autosave, and the campaign must be launched online once before it plays offline (PowerPyx, Oct 18, 2026). Difficulty levels are explained on Campaign Rewards and Difficulty.
Mission trophy tips
Skeet Shooting (Mission 1: Mayhem): the 10 kills must come in one attempt. PowerPyx suggests a field of view of 60 (Settings, Graphics, View), single-tap fire, and reloading the checkpoint if paratroopers land (PowerPyx, Oct 18, 2026).
Safety's On (Mission 2: Out in the Cold): pick up four bottles before the kitchen, then use thrown bottles and takedowns on the five enemies and melee the last; you can switch to Hardened once you reach the corridor before it (PowerPyx, Oct 18, 2026).
Can't Touch This (Mission 2: Out in the Cold): block with L2 or LT just before Makarov's strikes land, then attack, and do not land too many hits in a row or he starts blocking; there is a checkpoint mid-fight (Game Rant, Oct 17, 2026; PowerPyx, Oct 18, 2026). The clip is the fight with Makarov in MrRoflWaffles' playthrough.
No Stone Unturned and No Harm Done (Mission 3: Following Orders): find all the first house's contraband, ask the man about each item, and hurt no civilian; the medicine gets you the defector's location. Item locations are on Campaign Collectibles (Game Rant, Oct 16, 2026).
Bullet Train (Mission 4: Hired Gun): kills on moving or stationary train cars both count toward the 50 (PowerPyx, Oct 18, 2026).
Raining Thunder (Mission 5: Losing Ground): you need five kills per shot from the mortar. There are four firing chances (the hill on the left, the street on the right, the rooftop on the right, the street on the right again); if it has not unlocked after the third, reload the checkpoint (PowerPyx, Oct 18, 2026).
Pacifist and Revenge (Mission 8: Assassins): they cannot be earned in the same run. For Pacifist, the one allowed kill is forced (it triggers Shin's death), and the trophy pops after the ladder and the next door; Game Rant's route uses the door codes 5523, 7632 and 9103 and hiding spots through the library, kitchens and gardens. For Revenge, on Hardened or harder, do not touch the bunker ladder: go prone and kill the four enemies who arrive (PowerPyx, Oct 18, 2026; Game Rant, Oct 19, 2026). In the clip the first door's code is read out as 5523, and the way leads on to the kitchen.
Incoming! (Mission 10: Stranded): use Bomb Drones, unlocked at the Drone Control Pad during "Disable the Jamming Station" and refilled from green Drone Chests. Each vehicle takes one drone and the final BMP two, so bring at least eight; reload the checkpoint if any infantry deploy (Game Rant, Oct 19, 2026). PowerPyx counts 8 trucks and one tank needing two hits.
Time to Crate, Scavenger and Noteworthy (Mission 10: Stranded): Stranded holds 26 crates and 58 of the game's 64 notes, so all three can be finished there (PowerPyx, Oct 18, 2026). Codes and the repair list are on Campaign Collectibles.
Long Shot (Mission 12: Counter Attack): the four mortar crews come as two teams, one at a time, on different rooftops (PowerPyx, Oct 18, 2026).
Never Forgotten (Mission 13: Escape): the Dog Tags are in a safe down the hallway after the barracks, through the unlocked door on the right, code 8410 (Game Rant, Oct 19, 2026).
Trench Broom (Mission 14: Entrenched): switch to the secondary shotgun in the trenches and have at least 10 kills before the ally rescue near the end (PowerPyx, Oct 18, 2026).
Was it Worth It?: PowerPyx's advice for Realism is to stay in cover and peek out for single shots. Realism has no HUD, friendly fire and no teammate markers (PowerPyx, Oct 18, 2026).
