Craft a stone pickaxe after the wooden one. Status: Verified.

PS5 trophy details

  • Grade: Bronze. Set: Base game. No separately purchased DLC is implied by the catalogue's expansion-pack label.
  • Missable: no story-ending lockout; the task can be repeated in an eligible Survival world. Eligibility can still be lost through settings.
  • Difficulty: 1/10, Hizzle editorial estimate. Time: UNSURE. Hidden flag: UNSURE.
  • Players: Solo route described; online play is not required by this method. Online required: no for the described route; local play can be used for the two-player tasks.
  • Roadmap: start phase of Minecraft PS5 Platinum trophy roadmap.

What to do

  1. Collect three cobblestone using your wooden pickaxe and make two sticks.
  2. At a table, use the pickaxe pattern with cobblestone across the top and sticks down the center.
  3. Take your new stone pickaxe from the output.

Before you repeat it

Crafting is a straightforward route, but the Bedrock requirement is having a stone pickaxe in your inventory. Do not discard a valid collected pickaxe because you did not craft it yourself.

Evidence and editions

Mojang's official data or mechanic explanation and the independently maintained Minecraft Wiki agree on this method. Bedrock 26.60 patch notes were reviewed; no change invalidating the described method was identified. This is research verification, not an in-game PS5 unlock test. PS4 players should use this method only for a matching trophy in their own stack; see Minecraft PS5 vs PS4 trophy differences. Xbox points and Java advancement equivalence are not established by this PS5 record.
