How to unlock the A Hard Goodbye achievement in The Walking Dead: A New Frontier - Definitive Guide

Author's Note: While there is an option to import choices from Seasons 1 and 2, because of an error I was not able to so I was forced to create a new backstory. What differences this will make for people reading these solutions, I can't say. None of the achievements are missable and you'll get them anyway, but your experience may differ somewhat from mine. I'll keep these solutions as general as possible to account for that.


Chapter 5 begins with Javi and Clementine in lockup after Eli was shot by Clementine. The closest thing Prescott has to a doctor soon arrives and Javi can either play it cool or turn on the charm ...either way he strikes out. Tripp, the leader of Prescott, shows up and says he'll take Javi and Clem to the junkyard in the morning. Eleanor, the medic, offers to let the two of you out the back gate instead. You're faced with a major choice: leave with Tripp in the morning (Clem's suggestion and what I chose) or leave with Eleanor that night.

At this point, you'll experience a flashback through Clem's eyes that will differ depending on who she ended up with at the end of Season 2. Regardless of your past decisions and the scene you get, the chapter after the flashback concludes.

If the achievements doesn't pop would highly recommend following the guide above as to where each chapter ends. If it doesn't pop in a 10-25 second time frame of reaching the next chapter. Restart the game, load back in that should pop your achievement. Ive done the same with 2 other tell tale games I've played and it has worked a charm. Give it a go!

Also, be sure to check if it just popped but didn't give a notification. That happened to me on other achievements in this game.

for me the issues with unlocking wasn't random (that doesn't change the fact that it was still annoying).. but what caused it for me was my controller turning off (100% correlation between that and no achievement popping with three data samples throughout my playthrough)

i hope this helps someone (there could be other random reasons i just wanted to share that i caught onto my own personal reason for it not working)

Story related, cannot be missed.

Javier will be patched up by Eleanor. Talk to her however you like. You will then be told by Tripp that he will take you to the junkyard himself in the morning. Eleanor disagrees and believes that Javier's people might need medical help. She will tell Javier that she can help him escape.

Make your choice:

  • Leave with Eleanor tonight.
    • Javier will agree to go with Eleanor during the night. Clementine will still agree with your choice as both of you get some rest before leaving. In the next chapter, you will both be riding your own horse with Eleanor.
  • Go with Tripp in the morning.
    • Javier will agree to go with Tripp since he has more muscle and it'll be safer during the morning. Clementine will be satisfied that you agreed with her choice. Both of them will get some rest to prepare for the morning. In the next chapter, you will both be in a car with Tripp.


A flashback scene will occur as Clementine is remembering events from Season Two. The following is based off Season Two's endings (which also had an effect on Clementine's wound):

  • If you stayed with Kenny, Clementine will have a scar above her right eyebrow.
  • If you stayed with Jane, Clementine will have "AJ" branded on her right hand.
  • If you stayed at Wellington, Clementine will have a bullet wound on her right cheek.
  • If you are Alone with AJ, Clementine will lose her left ring finger.


After the flashback scene ends, the trophy will unlock.

This achievement is story-related and cannot be missed.

During this chapter, Javi will be patched up by the town's doctor and you will then have to make a decision of when and who to leave with: Eleanor at night or Tripp the next morning. After making the decision, Javi and Clem will fall asleep, and a flashback sequence will play out. After the climax of this flashback, the achievement will unlock.
