Quick answer
Do the story first, then the weapon-master questlines and side tales, then bounties, then a region-by-region cleanup of collectibles.
Quick answer
54 trophies for the Platinum: 1 Platinum, 2 Gold, 7 Silver, 44 Bronze. All offline, all in the base game.
Time: 50 to 70 hours (PowerPyx). Difficulty: 3 out of 10 on the easiest setting, Casual. Game8 rates it 5 out of 10.
Missable trophies: none. Difficulty does not matter. Free roam stays open after the story.
Hardest trophy: Master Bounty Hunter. Complete all 31 bounties, and talk to Kojiro after each one.
You need about 85% completion for the Platinum (PowerPyx). Three collectible types are exempt: Ainu Items, Pillars of the Fallen, and all but 30 of the 61 Altars of Reflection.

The Platinum roadmap in five steps
Follow these steps in order. Nothing is missable, so you can play the story at your own pace and clean up later, but this order keeps the grind short: the story unlocks the map and the mechanics, the weapon-master lines unlock moves you need for combat trophies, and the bounty and collectible cleanup comes last, when you can travel anywhere.
Step 1: finish the story
Play through Atsu’s hunt for the Yotei Six: The Snake, The Oni, The Kitsune, The Dragon, The Spider, and the figure behind them. The story ends with the Gold trophy The Onryō Rests. Take side tales and bounties as you meet them on the way, but do not chase every collectible yet. The six regions, Yotei Grasslands, Ishikari Plain, Tokachi Range, Nayoro Wilds, Teshio Ridge, and Oshima Coast, all open up as the story moves.
Step 2: weapon-master questlines and side tales
Clear the three weapon-master questlines: Yari (the spear-like naginata), Kusarigama (the chained sickle), and Odachi (the great sword). Each line ends in a Silver trophy, and the moves they unlock feed into several Bronze combat trophies. Finish the remaining side tales in the same pass, since most of them sit near the same quest givers and camps.
Step 3: all 31 bounties
Work through every bounty on the bounty boards. This is the longest single grind in the Platinum, and it is why Master Bounty Hunter is the hardest trophy: 31 targets, spread across all six regions. Talk to Kojiro after each bounty, as the guides list him as the turn-in. Bounties unlock as you progress, so any you cannot find yet will appear later in the story.
Step 4: collectibles, region by region
Sweep one region at a time so nothing gets skipped. The counts the Platinum needs are in the table below. You only need 30 of the 61 Altars of Reflection, and you do not need all Ainu Items or Pillars of the Fallen. Everything else on the collectible lists must be finished.
| Collectible | Needed for Platinum |
|---|---|
Bounties | All 31 |
Altars of Reflection | 30 of 61 |
Yotei Six camps | All 22 |
Wolf dens | All 10 |
Fox dens | All 11 |
Ainu Items | Not required |
Pillars of the Fallen | Not required |
Step 5: cleanup and the Platinum
After the story, free roam stays open, so mop up anything left: combat trophies tied to specific moves, remaining collectibles, and any side tale you skipped. When the last of the 53 other trophies pops, Legendary Onryō follows at once. If a trophy has not popped, check the counts in the table above first: a missed bounty or a short altar count is the usual cause.
Hardest trophy: Master Bounty Hunter
Master Bounty Hunter is a Gold trophy for completing all Bounties. PowerPyx names it the hardest trophy in the game, not because any single bounty is hard, but because 31 targets across six regions take the longest to finish. There is no shortcut: take every bounty from the boards, clear them, and turn each one in to Kojiro. If the trophy has not popped after 31 completions, re-check the boards in every region, since bounties unlock over the course of the story.
What does not count toward the Platinum
New Game+ trophies (2, added in a free patch): separate, not required.
Legends co-op trophies (6, online co-op): separate, not required. Online play needs PlayStation Plus.
Echoes of Sekigahara trophies (12, reported by trophy-list sites) and Most Wanted trophies (11, reported by trophy-list sites): separate paid-content sets, not required.
Difficulty settings: no trophy is locked behind a difficulty. Casual, the easiest setting, earns the Platinum.
FAQ
Can I get the Platinum in one playthrough?
Yes. One story playthrough plus free-roam cleanup is enough. No second playthrough is needed, and New Game+ is not required.
How long does the Platinum take?
PowerPyx estimates 50 to 70 hours. Game8 gives the same 50 to 70 hour range. How fast you finish the 31 bounties and the collectible sweep is what moves the number.
Do I need to collect everything?
Almost. You need all bounties, all 22 Yotei Six camps, all 10 wolf dens, and all 11 fox dens, but only 30 of the 61 altars, and Ainu Items and Pillars of the Fallen are not required for the Platinum.
