Roadmap

Stage 1: Initial Playthroughs + Miscellaneous Trophies

For this guide and its trophies, the first thing you will need to do is to meet Carlton Smith and Assassinate both targets with the methods required for the Bronze Master of Old and New. Doing this will give you two trophies at the same time. This is different from the previous game because it's easier to complete an Escalation. These are the trophies that you will unlock: Bronze A Long Time Coming, Bronze Master of Old and New, Bronze Flatline. And finally, complete Silver The Sensei and other trophies.

In this level, you will start with your normal equipment. A cutscene will start (Circle to skip it), and after the cutscene, you can walk freely across the map. This Mission can be completed with Mission Stories, Challenges, or normal.

Stage 2: Challenges That Reward a lot of XP

Challenges take a lot of time to complete. Some Challenges reward 2,000 - 4,000 XP, so complete them to more easily reach Mastery Level 20 for the Gold Sayōnara trophy. Here's a playlist with almost all the challenges in this Mission. The previous game had 5,000 XP for some challenges. Now it has 2,000 - 4,000 XP.
Reach Hokkaido Mastery Level 20.

For this Trophy, you need to complete the level on any difficulty.

Completing this level is not hard, and is recommended to play on Casual/Professional because they aren't hard like Master since you have the following perks:

Casual Difficulty:
  • Unlimited Saves.
  • All Mission Story Guides are available.
  • No surveillance cameras.
  • Fewer Guards.
  • Forgiving combat (fake surrender).
  • More items are legal to carry.
  • NPC's are less attentive to sounds. 

 Professional Difficulty:
  • Unlimited Saves.
  • All Mission Story Guides available.
  • Surveillance cameras are active.
  • Cameras alert guards if Illegal activities are spotted.
  • Combat is challenging but fair.

This mission begins with a cutscene after the cutscene is over, you will arrive at the Gama Facility. The Mission can be completed in any way you want, with mission stories or Challenges. 

Yuki Yamazaki is walking near the spa area, kitchen area, etc. She never enters the hospital. You can kill her by shooting her from a good place or do a mission story.

Erich Soders needs a heart transplant, so he will be stuck on the operating table. You can come there disguised as 47's default suit (black suit with a red tie) and he will die because he will be surprised that you are alive, or follow a mission story.

Go to the first floor where the two chefs are serving the sushi. Poison with Fugu Poison. Blend in and wait for Yamazaki to come. Don't serve the other people! After she comes, serve her and she will die.
  • For the last assassination, you need the Director's Disguise to enter the room with the hospital's mainframe. Sabotage one of the things and look at the screen to see the order. Do them in the order that is shown on the screen and exit the room. You will see a computer in front of you that you can use. You will kill Soders with that.
