The highly anticipated Resident evil village has finally arrived, and with him the trophy and platinum hunters are also rubbing their hands. The title Capcom owns within it 50 trophies, of which 40 bronze, 6 silver, and only 3 gold. Potentially apart from those related to history, all trophies are missing, but you can take advantage of the manual saving to be able to replay specific areas. As for the platinum difficulty itself, this isn't an extremely difficult hunt, but it won't be the easiest of walks either. Among the trophies to be unlocked there is also the one linked to finishing the game at maximum difficulty (Village of Shadows), and it is recommended to do so using the infinite bullets, trick that once unlocked does not affect trophies. You will need to complete the game at least 3 times. One of the trophies that could be more annoying is definitely "Legendary Mercenary", which will require you to get the S rank in all levels of the Mercenaries mode. In addition to this exhaustive guide to platinum, we also offer you the complete guide to the game!
ATTENTION: the guide to trophies and platinum contains SPOILERS on Resident Evil Village, so we advise you to continue reading only if you already know the story or have already completed a game run.
The initial advice is to enjoy history - and not only - a easy level, focusing on collectibles and saving money. We recommend that you focus only on purchasing the inventory size and crafting recipes. Make a manual save for each chapter, as they will not be selectable when you finish the story, so you can return to each area of the game to get the various trophies in case you miss them. Once you have finished the game you will unlock the cheat for infinite bullets, which you can use for the higher difficulties. Obviously, you use a slot to save your game at the end, because if you restart with the new game plus with that, you will take your progress with you.
The second step is what sees your second run focus on buying extra content in the shop.
After that, the advice is to throw yourself headlong to finish your run (still at easy level) only by using the knife (if you have unlocked the Karambit knife, use it, as it does a lot more damage.). If you succeed, add other trophies to this run, such as the one dedicated to 3 hour speedrun and that of spend less than 10.000 lei.
Play the Mercenaries mode when you want it from after it will be unlocked, but don't expect it to be easy.
