007 First Light has 38 trophies on PlayStation (1 Platinum, 3 Gold, 14 Silver, 20 Bronze) and 37 achievements on Steam and Xbox, which have no platinum (PowerPyx, Steam).

PowerPyx counts 33 that unlock offline and 5 that need an online connection, for TacSim. Steam hides 19 of its 37 achievements: the 18 story ones and A Legacy of spycraft.

How hard is the 007 First Light platinum?

7:10 Easy, by PowerPyx's measure: 2/10 and about 20 hours, which covers the story and the collectibles, then about 30 minutes of TacSim (three Escalations to Tier 3, one Operation and Clearance Level 3). Beebom's estimate for every trophy is longer, 30 to 35 hours. The platinum needs all 92 collectibles, so most of the time goes there (Collectibles). Times for the story alone are on How Long to Beat.

PowerPyx's roadmap

Play the story on any difficulty and pick up collectibles as you go with PowerPyx's guide. Keep the Laser Strap equipped from Chapter 9, since some collectibles are behind padlocks. The combat trophies come naturally or with the tips below.
Clean up with Chapter Select after the credits: it jumps to any checkpoint, and items save on pickup. Back up your save before the last item of each type, and wait for the trophy before quitting.
Finish in TacSim (online): Escalations open after Chapter 6, Operations after the story. The first Escalation is a one-minute tutorial and the first Operation about three minutes. Do What if...?, A Change of pace and The readiness is all first, then grind quick challenges for Clearance Level 3.
