How to unlock the Born Dead achievement in Prince of Persia - Definitive Guide

First a few tips:

--Save on every piece of solid ground like as you are going for be gentle with her.
--If you don't get kill restart your last checkpoint
--A few soldiers you need to jump to shave off a few seconds so be mindful of that.

The first encounter with a soldier that you need to kill before it spawns is briefly after the fight with Ahrimin. You will jump through wall run and use Elika to get through here and once you hit the final wall you will see the Spawn point, jump as close and run and strike with your sword. That is 1.

When you kill the first, you will start jumping and avoiding the corruption again on the walls, after a few jumps and wall runs with Elika, you will come to number 2.

Number 3 is not hard at all to find once you land on solid ground and kill number 2, turn the camera to your right and you will see another piece of solid ground that is where number 3 will be. Two wall runs and a golden ring will get you there and kill it and you got the third soldier in the bag.

Before you follow the path that you are suppose to go, you can see a pillar in the middle of the room if you look behind it is a solid piece of ground, which is where number 4 is going to be. Be quick getting here sometimes when you hit the pillar, you will be turned the opposite direction wasting valuable seconds to kill this guy.

Soldier number 5 is a real pain in the arse. When descending down the tower you are going to go through a few patches of corruption blobs and wall runs. He will be the second platform that you get to, but there is a trick, you might have already taken too much time getting to him and he has spawned, well thanks to Dust Star and Leaf King from x360a posts before you hit the vertical climbs hit RB and you automatically go into a wall slide, that will shave off a few seconds. Also right before the door going down to the second platform jump and it will land you right next to the spawn point.

Soldier number 6 is after the shape shifter fight, you will drop down the tower some more escape some corruption and climb back up, you will then wall run to a ring grab twice then jump you won’t be able to see this one until you get around the corner and jump to the platform, what I did is jumped then used Elika and I was right next to the spawn point, do that to get a quick attack. If not you might have lost seconds and he will spawn.

Soldier numbers 7 is right after soldier number 6, wall run and start the series of jumps and after you land on the next solid piece of ground he will be there make sure to use Elika again to get really close.

That’s it, just finish the Epilogue and when the credits start to roll, Achievement unlocked.

If you leave negative feedback - please message me and explain.
This is my first detailed solution so help would be good.

Thanks @ChrisHenares I was getting super frustrated doing it twice as fast as the video in the walkthrough and it spawning in before I could do ANYTHING.

No matter what i did, i could never reach the first one without it spawning. I watched videos and got there 10 to 15 sec faster and it still spawned. I tried restarting the dlc like Chris said and it just didn't work. Tried on series x and then on 360, didn't work. Deleted all saves, didn't work. Fuck this achievement

6th one is very annoying!

EDIT: Got it done shortly after my comment!

Be real quick and at the end make a jump very quickly after the ring and a double jump at it.

Did this epilogue two years ago on PS3. This particular trophy was a pain in the ass, but because it was glitched somehow.

The very first enemy you encounter after escaping, I think it was the very first moment of the DLC, if you get the restart checkpoint, you won't be able to kill him before it spawn. You must do it by beginning a new game by force.

The game was like a 3/10 difficulty, but the DLC with all these things I'd rather give him a 5/10 or even 6/10 difficulty. Thanks god is very short.

If anyone else is struggling with Soldier #6, what helped for me was that I finally grokked that

you only need to press the attack button (X) as soon as you land in order to start the instant kill animation. You don't need to push forward at all if you've landed close enough and with the right timing. Pressing X will initiate the move for you.

This should probably have been obvious to me, but I did the corresponding instant attack achievement in the base game over ten years ago, so that experience wasn't fresh in my mind, to say the least.

Trying to get this on Xbox 360 after a while. I found a very new solution to the first soldier.

Overall this DLC and this achievement/trophy is just buggy, bad scripted (like hell) and you're going to have luck in order to get it. It's really impossible to determinate what is working and what is not working. No matter how many tries you do, when it doesn't work, it's going to not work no matter how you do nor how quickly you go. In fact,

Here's a video of a guy dying several times and still managing to get all 7 soldiers in a row, no matter he was dying really near the soldier, so, time limit it's definitely NOT the main reason to pop up or not,

https://youtu.be/x7Ds5keYELI

On PS3 like I said on my first comment, The very first soldier every time I tried loading my previous game it result on failure, I had to start a new game every single time to get it. Well, I just tried on Xbox 360 another method because I was tired of trying. My method was:

1. Load the game. So no new game and no cinematics and boss fight.

2. Waited 10 minutes. Why? Because I noticed everytime I loaded the game all the wall traps didn't loaded and I was free to go around without dying. I was guessing I needed to wait for the game to load all textures and enemies/traps to load. Probably waiting 5 minutes will work but I decided to go for ten minutes.

3. When arriving to the soldier I DID NOT used double jump with Elika, and I DID NOT spammed the X/Attack button in mid-air, I just waited to the prince to touch the ground and then I hitted the X button and finally it worked.


I'm now at the 6th one, loading the game and stuff and trying to get it done. Some videos the guy uses double jump with Elika, some others not, and they all work fine, but I'm getting a little bit pissed off right now with the 6th one.

It's very rare and definitely hard to get it done, I will keep trying.

The Butchr's solution is great, but for me I struggled to understand exactly how to get Soldier number 5, who happens to be the most tough of the 7. No fault of Butchr, its just very hard to understand it in writing without seeing it. So to help with anyone struggling with it (I came back to it after 9 years when it went backwards compatible!) I have attached a link to a video I created, hope it helps!


Again props to Butchr for his solution!

There are 7 normal enemies in the Epilogue. Kill all 7 before they spawn for this achievement. You should be saving on every piece of solid ground, that way, if you mess up, you can reload and try again. Be quick as some of the soldiers seem to spawn rather quickly.

Please note that the achievement will unlock at the end of the game, when the credits begin.

This is the hardest trophy of the Epilogue, and possibly the entire game. Remember what you had to do to get the Speed Kill trophy. There are seven of these generic soldiers that you have to kill. The key to this is saving often. The platforming sections are longer than in the main game before you reach any of these soldiers.

Note: You won’t get this trophy until after complete the Epilogue, not after you kill the seventh soldier.
