Introduction:
Bright Memory: Infinite is the full-fledged follow-up to Bright Memory, and the work of one man, FYQD-Studio. Playing as Supernatural Scientific Research Organization operative, Shelia, you'll investigate mysterious portals appearing in the sky, causing demonic soldiers to spill into our reality. Combat involves wielding various weapons, including a Light Blade katana, which you can use to send bullets ricocheting back at enemies. It's a fast-paced and fun first-person shooter that flies by at a slender two hours or so, and its unlockable higher difficulty levels provide some neat replay value.

Walkthrough:
Step 1: Go through the game on 'Easy' or 'Normal' difficulty to unlock the 'Revenge' difficulty level. During this initial playthrough of Bright Memory: Infinite, you'll unlock the Battle-hardened

trophy. Finish the game again to unlock the Infinite trophy, then you can set about using scene selection to mop up any remaining trophies you may still have to earn.Step 3: Mop up. Using scene select option, you can retry the stealth-based 'Surrounded' mission if you failed it on previous attempts, alongside the short car chase segment, in which you have to destroy five vehicles. If you've yet to unlock them, you can work on the various trophies attached to attaining skills with the assault rifle, shotgun, handgun, and sniper rifle, as well as the ones connected to collecting Reliquaries. You should, by then, have unlocked the full complement of trophies. Well done!

, opening him up to a flurry of slashes [
] and shotgun fire. You can keep him at bay with Shelia's assault rifle and whittle down his guard, before inflicting damage to chip away at his yellow health gauge (your sword is the most effective weapon here, when he's exposed). Rinse and repeat, staying on the look out for the Emperor's ground pound fire attack (you'll be able to see when he's winding it up), as it's hard to block and does a lot of damage. Be sure to use the dodge button [
], and when you're low on health, back off and keep your guard up to give it a chance to replenish.
) will temporarily knock the Tian Yu Emperor over (as will deflecting one of his sword projectiles back at him), which will buy you a few seconds to retreat and regroup if you need to. This should be pretty straightforward.
], and pay special attention to upgrading Shelia's key skills [use the 
to access the upgrade menu] as soon as possible. Light Blade and Exo Arm skills will prove invaluable, and if you have any leftover Reliquaries, pour those into enhancing the damage dealt by your weapons' secondary fire. Use cover more often, make sure to dodge as much as possible, and keep an eye on your skill energy, as you'll be spamming your sword [
] a lot. Keep mixing things up and making progress at a measured, steady pace, while keeping a cool head during boss battles, and you should slowly but surely make it to the end. To unlock 'Hell' difficulty, you'll have to first complete the game on 'Revenge'.
]. During the final segment, take out the first soldier quickly, before he joins the other two nearby. All being well, this will pop once you've finished the sequence.
], and the EMP. As you collect Reliquaries, you'll be able to unlock further skills, like the Quake Punch ground pound and Whirlwind Blade Slash. Get these unlocked as soon as you can, and you'll have more options in your arsenal to start working on this. You'll likely get 80 kills for the

], like the game encourages you to, by the time the credits have rolled for the first time, you'll have made a bit of progress towards earning 50 kills for each weapon, meaning by the time you're on a second run, you'll start unlocking the 'Silver' weapon milestones. For the AR, SG, HG, and SR Gold milestones, you'll need to rack up 150 kills with the assault rifle and shotgun, and 100 kills with the handgun and sniper rifle, which will take you 2-3 playthroughs. That is unless you focus on bagging kills with a single weapon. But, since you'll need to finish the game three times to earn the Platinum, you may as well mix things up with your weapons, and wait for each trophy to pop naturally as you play. Just keep plugging away, and all of these will come in time.
], or retrieved from fallen enemies. Relics appear as glowing blue orbs, like spirit energy. For every ten Relics you gather, you'll also get a Reliquary, so they're well worth hoovering up. One playthrough is all you'll need to gather 100 Relics, assuming you go scavenging around for them.
], and tada! Go to 'Giant Blade Slash' and unlock it for three Reliquaries, then max out the 'Blade Slash -Whirlwind' skill, which will cost you a further five Reliquaries, then you'll unlock this, no fuss.
], and spend three on the 'Shock Punch', then a further five on upgrading the 'Rocket Punch ability. Done!
