Do cheats disable trophies and achievements?
If you use cheats in Tomb Raider Remastered, it will block the ability to earn trophies and achievements. If you don’t like this sound, it’s best to create a separate save file that you only use for tricks.
This will allow you to try tricks in one save and earn achievements in another – like the ironic trophy available for locking the butler in the freezer.
