    justGeorgethencan you get this in one playthough? or do you have to get both player exclusives to get the trophy?
    Posted by justGeorgethen on 13 Dec 19 at 23:09
    SomeDudeWABeardYou have to get both Leon and Claire’s exclusive files to their story in order to obtain this Trophy. Hope this helps!

    Doc_ChopperI missed the inspektion reports "September Inspektion Week 1" in the Ada section (Leon 1st campaign). There is no way getting there as Leon from within the sewers. Do I have to start all over again and select EVERY PIECE AGAIN? or do I just need to pick up that one in particular?

    SomeDudeWABeardIf you have a save point prior to that section you can just reload and pick it up that way. If not you’ll need to play through again to get it. You don’t have to pick all of them up in the same run, so don’t worry about the others if you have to play through again. Hope this helps.

    Doc_ChopperYepp, of course I don't had a save point I could return to. But good to know I dont need to collect all the others as well again. :P
    Need to play Leons Campaign again for Veteran anyway.
