PS4
Far Cry 4 combines Ajay’s campaign with co-op, Battles of Kyrat and community content. Test required online modes before completing the whole world. Liberating an outpost alone does not replace Brother In Arms’ Hurk role. Alternate story, bell towers and side activities, using outposts for combat actions. Shangri-La belongs to the base game but does not require full completion for platinum; Valley of the Yetis has an additional group.
Base-game platinum roadmap for PS4. Additional trophy groups are separate.
- Required difficulty: No specific base-game difficulty is required.
- Missable trophies: Activities support cleanup; test matchmaking early.
- Online: Co-op, Battles of Kyrat and a community map are required.
Test modes before full collection
Renaissance Man requires a public match of each specified Battles of Kyrat type. Test actual modes and check the outcome. Menu access does not guarantee players or registration. Community Surprise belongs to the map browser, so ordinary competitive matches do not satisfy it.
- Check competitive modes and community maps separately.
Choose the correct co-op role
Brother In Arms requires liberating an outpost as Hurk, so the guest role matters. Changing Lanes instead needs a passenger vehicle takedown. Agree who drives and who performs the action before entering the area rather than repeating the attempt from the wrong role.
- Assign roles before the outpost and vehicle attempt.
Open territory and alternate activities
Bell towers and outposts make Kyrat easier to navigate and reveal jobs. Check the activity categories required for Well-Rounded instead of repeating one type. Story progress opens territory and tools. Postpone an inaccessible area rather than searching it indefinitely.
- Combine progression with different job categories.
Prepare outposts for challenges
Tread Lightly requires no alarm to sound. Disable alarm systems before eliminating guards. Outposts also provide targets for distance shots, double kills and explosive challenges. Use Outpost Master to revisit liberated situations and dedicate each attempt to one condition rather than mixing incompatible goals.
- Check alarm, weapon and target before attacking.
Separate collections from expansions
Journals, masks, posters and prayer wheels have their own requirements. Check thresholds before seeking every available object without treating every Shangri-La mission as a platinum obligation. Yeti trophies have separate conditions and grouping; they do not replace missing Kyrat categories.
- Check required collections in the base group.
