Best In The West Trophy Guide
You can find the requirements for 100% completion under the progress menu on the pause screen. Getting 100% completion doesn’t quite mean “100%” and for example while there are 59 weapons in the game you will only need to find 48 of them to get 100% completion. A full list of what you need is shown below.
Mission and Events:
- Missions (all 107 story missions, including several missable ones, must be completed)

Collectables:
- Points of Interest (need to find only one)
