Assassin’s Creed II Platinum Guide (PS3, PS4)

Assassin’s Creed II

PS3 / PS4

Assassin’s Creed II’s Ezio Collection platinum follows Ezio through story, tombs and collections. Feathers benefit from a city-by-city record, but secure special story opportunities first. During Leonardo’s flying-machine mission, kick a guard immediately instead of depending on later opportunities. Then develop Monteriggioni and plan purchases while keeping glyphs, Codex pages and collections tied to Villa rewards distinct.

The PS3 original and the Ezio Collection release on PS4 have 51 trophies with the same objectives. On base PS3, prepare for Fly Swatter during the Sequence 8 flight.

  • Required difficulty: No specific difficulty is required.
  • Missable trophies: Secure Fly Swatter during sequence 8’s flight; track collections by city.
  • Online: The platinum is single-player on both versions.

Use the flying machine immediately

When controlling Leonardo’s machine, find a reachable guard and perform Fly Swatter’s required kick before ending the mission. Story memories do not offer the same chapter selection as later games. Immediately checking the trophy avoids relying on edition-dependent cleanup much later.

  • Verify Fly Swatter before leaving the flight mission.

Invest in the Villa throughout the story

Monteriggioni supports the money needed for weapons, armour and paintings. Renovate and collect income while progressing instead of leaving everything to a final waiting session. Villa rewards have their own conditions. Depositing a collection and wearing its reward are different actions, so check the wording.

  • Manage Villa investments and rewards separately.

Track feathers city by city

Divide the search by city and district, marking each location immediately. A nearly complete total does not identify a missing rooftop. Checking small groups limits revisits. Once the collection is finished, bring it to the Villa and verify reward conditions rather than assuming the last object unlocks everything related.

  • Check city progress, delivery and reward use.

Separate tombs, glyphs and Codex

Assassin tombs provide seals, glyphs open puzzles, and Codex pages support story progression. Do not merge these into one counter. Tackle tombs once movement is familiar and use viewpoints to organize travel between districts.

  • Keep separate tomb, glyph and Codex checklists.

Prepare tools for Ezio’s specific actions

Sand, a broom, poison and knives have different requirements. Choose a controllable situation, equip the tool and check targets and conditions before trying. Winning a fight does not establish No-hitter’s damage-free condition. Separate that attempt from ordinary mission progress.

  • Check the tool and conditions for each action.

Frequently asked questions

Does PS3 share the PS4 platinum?

No. This guide links the Ezio Collection PS4 list.

Is postponing Fly Swatter advisable?

No. Earning it during sequence 8 avoids uncertainty over cleanup opportunities in different editions.

Are feathers sufficient without delivery?

Check collection, delivery to the Villa and use of the resulting reward.

When should I earn Fly Swatter on PS3?

Do it during your first flight in Sequence 8, before reaching the destination. On the base PS3 release, do not rely on another opportunity.
