Whether There’s a Borderlands 3 Difficulty Achievement or Trophy

The simple answer is no. While you can certainly change the game’s difficulty level, it’s not tied to any trophy, so you won’t have to worry about playing through the game on a certain difficulty in order to unlock the game’s Platinum trophy or 1000 Gamerscore.

That’s likely to come as a relief for most, given that achievements tied to difficulty can often lead to hair-tearing frustration, even though they are coveted prizes when you finally do tick them off.

But there are plenty of tough achievements to look forward to grinding out if that’s your thing. 45, in fact, which we’ve detailed in a separate article, which lists them by name and description. You can find that here if you’re looking for a reference as you work your way through.
