Reincarnated
SilverFull guideCollapseHow to earn it
Finish a full New Game+ playthrough — the platinum's biggest time sink. Your gear, levels and Blade Arts carry over, so NG+ is much faster (~10 hours) than the first run.
Tip
NG+ scales up to roughly Normal difficulty if you played the first run on Easy — comfortable, not brutal. Use NG+ to grab the one blade you save for last and to top your Keeper Golem count to 30.
