Introduction
This is a very unique game and introduces a fantastic free-running game to PS3. You will enjoy very much although if you are hunting down your platinum will be difficult and very frustrating at times especially the time trials obtaining 50 stars and of course the speedruns. The quickest way to get platinum can be done in 3 playthroughs and on top of that you need to do all the time trials. Good luck! Hope this roadmap helps you.

Step 1 - First playthrough to unlock hard and without shooting an enemy
In step 1 you will play the game on any difficulty you choose either easy or medium in order to unlock hard. Important note: You may want to play the game on easy as it will be easier not to shoot an enemy. If you are stuck on a specific part keep trying to take out the enemies or if you are able to avoid them do that. Along the way you will pick up the trophies for completing each chapter. I advise that on this playthrough you search for the bags. You can either search for the bags using videos in the trophy guide or you can find them yourself. However some of the bags can be tricky to find so I advise that you use a video to find them all. You also need to do all the combat and stunt related trophies in this playthrough and you can follow the videos in the trophy guide to help you do these. You will have a lot of trophies by the end of this playthrough and you will have unlocked hard difficulty. So it is time for step 2.

Step 2 - Hard playthrough
This is the hard playthrough in order to obtain the gold trophy. Hard isn't too difficult but some areas you may find tricky. Disarm an enemy, grab his gun then shoot the other enemies. You won't have runner's vision on the hard playthrough so try to memorise where to go on the first playthrough. It could take about 5 - 7 hours depending on how quick you can complete the chapters. Once you have completed the game on hard you will be rewarded with the second gold trophy from the game. Time for step 3.

Step 3 - Time trials
On step three, you will attempt the time trials trying to get 3 stars on each level. You need 50 stars for the gold and I believe that there are 23 time trials and a free one you can download making it 24 offering 72 stars. You do not have to get three on all of them. To help you, you can download ghosts from the leaderboards providing some great tips on how to get 3 stars. They are do-able, you just need to be patient. Most of the levels you only need 2 stars although if you get 3 stars on some time trials then you only need to get 1 star on some levels. Good luck! This will net you five trophies! Time for the final step and platinum.

Step 4 - The Speedruns
The speedruns are horrible and especially chapter 2 and 9 can be particularly frustrating. However some of them are fairly easy so you can get them out of the way first for example Chapter 1 and prologue. I think you can download a ghost for these speedruns and attempt to keep up with it. This will really help. If not then you can use the youtube videos in the trophy guide which are also extremely useful. You need to be patient with these trophies and they will come if you keep at it. You will get frustrated at times unless you are a seriously amazing player! But after these speedruns will be a platinum waiting for you. Another extremely prestigious platinum added to your collection.

I hope this roadmap will help people going for the platinum. Happy trophy hunting!

Head over heels
Complete a chapter of the game without ending up in a heavy landing

Easily done in the Prologue (the training level won't count). Press right before you land from a high distance. Faith will do a skill roll and won’t take any damage.

Be careful: when dropping down from the vents (first encounter with enemies) do a skill roll! Otherwise you'll get hurt and this counts as a heavy landing.

Untouchable
Complete a chapter without getting shot

Easily done in the Prologue, as there are only 2 enemies that you'll encounter. For first enemy, jump () and press to kick just before you reach him and you'll smash him to the ground (this will get you the secret trophy ''Hey it's-a-me!''). Now move to the left to avoid the second enemy's gunfire. Activate reaction time with and disarm him with .

Pacifist
Complete a chapter without firing a gun

Just melee opponents () or disarm () them and throw away their weapon with . Never press when wielding a weapon and you’ll be fine.

Martial artist
Perform a melee hit from a wallrun

When an enemy is standing next to a wall, approach the wall at an agngle and press to wallrun. When close to the enemy, press and Faith will kick him.

Mine!
Perform 15 successful disarms (outside of the tutorial)

Get close to an enemy and when he's trying to smash you with his weapon, press when the weapon turns red and you will disarm him. This is easier to do when you use reaction time (press to activate). You can only get this trophy in the story mode (Tutorial doesn't count).

Tango down
Knock out 20 enemies in melee combat

When engaging an enemy, hit to melee. A police officer takes about 2-3 hits and an armored Swat police officer about 4-5 hits.

Try jumping and kicking ( + ) or sliding and kicking ( + ) for easy hits. You can only kill people that are red.

You will generally get this just playing through the game as normal (especially if you're going for "Test of Faith").

If you plan on skipping enemies and just want to grind it out, this is easily done in the metro/subway level. There is a part where you have to fight 2 police officers and 4 swat members. Kill as many as you can and die. You will respawn and all enemies will return. Just rinse and repeat.

That's a wrap
Complete the story mode on any difficulty

Complete Chapter 9 (The Shard) on any difficulty.

A for effort
Attain a Time Trial star rating of 35

See "Still Counting"

Vrooom!
Maintain sprint speed for 30 seconds.

In Chapter 6, checkpoint D, after the sequence about Project Icarus, you need to escape from the guys who came in the elevator. As soon you have control of Faith, just run in circles around the base you need to climb. The area is large enough to maintain full speed for 30 seconds straight. Keep moving in the same direction, taking the corners gradually. Stop running when you think you hit 30 seconds. The trophy will pop up after you stop.

Another good area to get this is at the beginning of Chapter 2, when you have run down the long above-ground sewer. Stay on the sides and sprint the entire way, making sure not run into anything.

Up, over, under, onwards
String together the following: jump, coil (over obstacle), slide (under obstacle)

Easily done in the Prologue. Start checkpoint A and the first fence you jump over you can coil up and then carry on holding down and slide under the pipes.



Free flowing
String together the following: wallrun, jump, speedvault

Run towards a wall and press at the right moment, then press and again to speedvault. A speedvault is when you hurdle a mid-height obstacle perfectly, which makes you gain speed. To do this press to vault an object that's in your path.

Easiest to do in the tutorial: When crossing the pipe you'll see a small building. Instead of climbing atop it, wallrun the wall on the right and jump on the ledge. You'll have more than enough height to do a speedvault after the jump.

May I have this dance?
String together the following: wallrun, turn, jump, wallclimb, turn, jump

Press to start wallrunning next to a wall, then press to turn, then again to jump towards an edge. Press when climbing on the wall followed by one more time and this trophy will pop up.

Easily done in the Prologue. You can use the two buildings just before you cross the pipe. Run between the buildings and start with a wallrun on the left one. Quickly do a 180, jump to wallclimb the right building, 180 again then jump and you should be on top of the left building, near the pipe.

Aaaand Safe!
String together the following: wallrun, jump, coil (over obstacle), skill roll

Press to start wallrunning and again to jump. Press when in the air to coil over an obstacle and finally again to roll and trophy unlocked.

A good place to do this is Playground Two in Time Trial mode. Go to the second checkpoint and look right of you for an orange staircase. Now go a little bit forward (keeping the stair to the right) and you'll see some wood right next to the building left of you. In front of that wood there's a fence with a wire. Now go back a bit, make a run to the plank, on the end of the plank press and angle the to jump toward the building (you should start wallrunning). When you near the fence press again (timing is very important for this move), then quickly press and twice in a row to coil and skill roll.



Test of Faith
Complete the game without shooting an enemy

Easily done on easy difficulty. Just melee opponents () or disarm () them. Once disarmed, throw away their weapon with . Note that the trophy says never shoot an enemy so you can shoot a gun, just don't hit an enemy. Never press when wielding a weapon and you’ll be fine. To check your status on this trophy press and if the text ''So far, you have not fired a shot at anyone'' appears at the top right then you're on track.

Pro runner
Complete story mode on hard difficulty.

Hard difficulty will unlock when you complete chapter 9 on any difficulty. On hard difficulty you’ll die faster from damages and have no runnervision (no red objects).

TIP: When attacking enemies, try to lure one and disarm him with . With his weapon you can easily shoot () his teammates. It's very hard to fight them with melee and going for the "Test of Faith" trophy.

*Some people are having trouble with this one. Start a new game on hard and not from chapter select to be sure*

Packrat
Find all 30 hidden bags

Every level has 3 hidden bags in it. Look for runnermarks. When you spot one there’s a bag nearby. Use this video guide (Click) for the locations.

Still counting
Attain a Time Trial star rating of 50

Every course has 3 difficulties. 1 star: normal, 2 stars: hard and 3 stars: expert. There are 23 levels that come with the game, each with 3 stars max for a total of 69 stars.

If you want to make the Time Trial trophies easier, there are two DLC map packs that you can download. Synesthesia is a standalone map that is free for all territories. The other map pack contains 9 more maps and is free in the EU, but must be purchased in NA. These maps add an additional 30 stars to the maximum possible stars, for a total of 99, and any stars gained on these DLC maps count towards any of the Time Trial trophies.

Downloading a ghost from the leaderboards is a very good training. You can discover new ways and shortcuts by just looking at the ghost. This Channel has all the time trials 3 stars so if you can't follow the ghost use these: YouTube - quebecboby's Channel.

Sweet goodbye
Triggered the flip-off move

Done by performing the flip-off move. This is where Faith sticks her two fingers up in the air when she's falling backwards. If you fall off the edge of a building, press to spin 180 around, then press to attack. Faith will just stick two fingers up at you. Must be done during combat.



Hey, it's-a-me!
Execute a stomp move on an enemy

Easily done in the Prologue. When you see the first enemy (not the group) that you need to fight, jump towards him with and press at the right moment. Faith will jump on the enemy and this trophy will pop up.

To explore strange new worlds
Attain a Time Trial star rating of 75. [Pure Time Trials]

Depending on how many stars you got on the original maps, this either won't take very long or you'll have to devote a good amount of time to it. Start by going through the new maps and get as many stars as you can. See the videos listed with the Superstar trophy for help with the DLC maps. Also, remember to download ghost times for shortcuts to improve your times.

Superstar
Attain a Time Trial star rating of 90. [Pure Time Trials]

This is going to take a bit of time. You'll want to hit 3 stars on as many of the DLC maps as possible, and you'll most likely have to go back to the original maps and improve some of those scores as well. The following videos show how to get 3 stars on each of the DLC levels. Also, remember to download ghost times for shortcuts to improve your times.
