PS4 / PS5
Far Cry 6 offers extensive exploration, but the platinum does not require indiscriminately clearing every map symbol. Identify base-list activities, obtain the secret ending before concluding the story and preserve opportunities for base-specific actions. Co-op and Special Operations also form a connected route; they are not the same as individual villain DLCs. Plan the narrative missable and partnered objective first, then use the map to finish the collection categories actually required.
PS4 and PS5 base list. Special Operations include base requirements; story DLC trophies are separate.
- Required difficulty: No mandatory high difficulty for the base campaign.
- Missable trophies: Earn Hidden In Plain Sight before the story ending; plan base actions too.
- Online: A co-op objective and connected activities, including Special Operations, are required.
Obtain the secret ending before concluding
After the opening phase, make the Miami detour before finishing the main campaign. Do not postpone it until every region’s story is concluded. Once the trophy unlocks, resume normal progression and confirm it has been recorded on your profile.
- Check Hidden In Plain Sight before the final story mission.
Prepare bases before capturing them
A base supports both liberation and infiltration actions. Before attacking, decide whether to attempt undetected capture or security-centre sabotage. Immediately destroying everything can remove the useful opportunity; attempt these goals while the base remains hostile and its approach can be planned.
- Read infiltration conditions before attacking an FND base.
Distinguish guest and host progression
For the co-op capture, agree on the base and session host. Requirements marked Solo Campaign are not automatically shared with a guest. After the encounter, inspect both profiles rather than assume the host’s narrative progress has completed every condition for the other player.
- Check Co-Dependent after an actual cooperative capture.
Plan Special Operations
These missions have conditions that cannot be solved by exploring Yara. Choose a target before starting: temperature control, hidden cash and hostages demand different attention. Check connectivity and mode access before planning a long session; this guide describes requirements rather than guaranteeing service availability in advance.
- Check Special Operations access before online cleanup.
Finish collections and insurgencies separately
Keep separate checklists for unique weapons, USB sticks, roosters and Criptograma chests. Rewards in one category do not finish another. After the story, also inspect required insurgent leaders, checking the cycle available in-game rather than treating ordinary map liberation as completion.
- Compare insurgent leaders and collections before the final audit.
Trophies to watch
Hidden In Plain Sight
Find your way to Miami
Finish the Miami detour before the main narrative conclusion.
Co-Dependent

Frequently asked questions
Must I finish every activity in Yara?
No. Match categories to trophies; clearing the entire map includes content unnecessary for the platinum.
Does co-op complete the story for the guest too?
Do not assume general sharing; Solo Campaign conditions and host progression must be checked separately.
Are the Vaas and Pagan DLCs mandatory?
Not for the base platinum. Do not confuse them with connected Special Operations requirements in the base list.
