Introduction

Welcome to the Far Cry 6 Trophy Guide! This is a relatively easy platinum to get. You can approach the trophies in any order you like and play on lowest difficulty. You only need about 65% game completion. The Collectible type “Hidden Histories” can be ignored and not all Side Quests and Treasure are mandatory for trophies. You don’t need to clear all of the Military Targets either. There are a handful of online trophies, but they are very forgiving, in the sense that only one requires playing with another human player and the rest can be done solo in Spec Ops mode. Crossplay between PS4 and PS5 is also supported, but keep in mind that the joining player can’t earn Story Progress or any “Solo Campaign Only” trophies.

Step 1: Story

Simply finish the story. What difficulty you pick doesn’t matter. The story takes about 15-20 hours depending on how much side content you do along the way. The main thing to keep in mind is the Secret Ending Hidden In Plain Sight which must be done before the end of the story. It’s done by simply leaving the map. You can do this as soon as you finished the first island “Isla Santuario”. After the secret ending it puts you back at your last autosave, so you can keep playing and no progress is lost.

It’s also highly recommended to do two trophies tied to FND Bases as early as possible: Ninjerilla, Didn’t See That Coming!. You need to conquer an FND Base undetected and use a Security Control Center to disable all alarms. There is no way to reset all Bases. After the story it will respawn only one base per week (but can change date in console settings forward by a week to cycle through them). Not all of them have Security Control Centers though, so it’s better to get it out of the way and not have to worry about it anymore.

Note regarding Co-Op: The joining player won’t have any of their story progress saved and can’t earn most trophies (anything with Solo Campaign Only in description). For trophies it’s best to play in Singleplayer.

Step 2: Collectibles Cleanup

After the story you should already have most fast travel points unlocked so you can use the Airdrop function and quickly fly everywhere with the Wingsuit. This makes getting Collectibles incredibly quick. If you haven’t already, destroy all Anti-Air Cannons now. With the airspace cleared you can use the Wingsuit everywhere and use Helicopters without being shot down.

For trophies you need the following Collectibles, Military Targets and Completion Tasks:

15 Criptograma Chests & 30 Criptograma Charts – all needed
19 Roosters – only 13 for trophy
15 USB Sticks (USB Songs) – all needed
49 Unique Weapons – all needed, non-unique weapons don’t count
5 Mythical Animals – all needed
21 FND Bases (Outposts) – all needed
26 Anti-Aircraft Cannons & Depleted Uranium – only 16 needed
26 Checkpoints – only 10 needed
20 Supply Drops (Recon Points) – only 10 needed
7 Supremos – all needed
4 Rides – all needed
5 Amigos – all needed
12 Gran Premio Races – only a few for car parts and unique sniper rifle
28 Yaran Stories – only the ones that unlock Collectibles & Amigos
21 Treasures – only the ones that unlock Collectibles & Amigos

The 143 Hidden Histories are not tied to any trophies and can be ignored.

Step 3: Miscellaneous Trophies, Insurgency Challenges, Spec Ops

After the story you will gain access to weekly Insurgency Challenges for killing 3 Insurgent Leaders. It spawns one per week. Luckily, there’s an exploit to do 3 in a row immediately, see Oh No You Don’t!.

Then you need to do the Spec Ops online trophies. They can be done Solo, you just need to be connected to the servers to play them. They are all quick and easy. Talk to the Spec Ops NPC at any of your camps to start these missions.
