Even for grizzled survival game veterans, escaping the planet in The Alters will be challenging, and getting every trophy will be just as hard.
The Alters follows the story of Jan Dolski, a miner, who was the lone survivor of a crash landing on a dangerous planet. Since he is unable to operate the mobile base alone, Dolski creates alternative versions of himself called Alters, which are the result of changing a previous decision in his life.
To escape the planet, you have to collect resources, craft items to build your base, and manage all of the Alters and their needs. Along the way, the Alters will teach Dolski about previously unexplored personality traits that directly relate to completing every achievement.

How Many Trophies & Achievements in The Alters
The Alters features 56 trophies.
You will be able to get most of the trophies by completing a playthrough as you would normally. However, multiple playthroughs are required to get every trophy. And that’s because you will need to keep all of the Alters alive, at least long enough, to complete their questline, and several of the trophies call for different endings.
Whether that be surviving as the botanist, enlisting the help of others, or leaving the other Alters to die, there are several ways to approach the survival sci-fi game.
In other gaming news, Street Fighter 6 has sold five million copies, and FBC: Firebreak has revealed a post-launch roadmap for 2025, Last of Us Season 3 is confirmed to be from Abby’s perspective.
