News Battlefield 2042 Trophies Will Turn You into a Future Soldier
No dedicated Portal trinkets
Hot on the heels of Call of Duty: Vanguard revealing its Trophy list, Battlefield 2042 has done the very same thing. The list is focused entirely on multiplayer since EA DICE hasn't included a single player campaign this time, meaning you'll need an online connection to start earning them. Basic gongs include reaching...
News Greg Miller Demands Bugsnax DLC Trophies, Gets Them
"PlayStation gamers, I did this for you"
One of the (very few) noteworthy reveals from last week's State of Play presentation was that Bugsnax is being treated to a free expansion titled The Isle of Bigsnax at some point next year. It will add a new biome, big Bugsnax, hats, home customisation, and now Trophies thanks to the efforts of Kinda Funny's...

I'm ready
Nickelodeon All-Star Brawl releases tomorrow, 5th October for both PlayStation 5 and PS4, and there's a somewhat surprising amount of excitement.

Soapbox I Don't Understand Service Games That Don't Add Trophies
Retention prevention
I just can’t understand it, readers: if you’re designing a game that’s built around player retention, why wouldn’t you add new Trophies to it? I suppose the easy answer is thus: Fortnite and Call of Duty: Warzone are two of the biggest games in the world and don’t actually have any gongs to unlock, but it still blows...
News PS4 Firmware 9.00 Entering Beta Phase, Will Allow You to View PS5 Trophies
Plus more new features

News Upcoming PS5 Firmware Will Display Trophy Lists Vertically
Horizontal Trophies on the way out
Trophy lists are a bit of a pain on PlayStation 5. When you view a game's Trophies on PS5, they're currently presented in a horizontal lineup, which matches other UI on the system, but isn't a particularly nice experience. The Trophy icon is nice and big, but its description is obscured because of the way the list...
News Beware This Trophy in PS5 Stunner Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart
Something to be aware of
Update: As a correction here, while there are 30 Blizon Crystals in Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart, you only actually need to hit 29 of them to unlock the Shifty Character Trophy. You therefore should not need to return to the grind rail section outlined in this article in order to get the Platinum Trophy. However, if for...

News You'll Need to Play a Lot of Knockout City on PS4 to Get All the Trophies
Dodge this
You know all those online Trophies people don't like? The type of trinkets that reward putting in dozens of hours and playing hundreds of matches? They're all in the Trophy list for Knockout City. The "dodgebrawl" multiplayer game is shaping up rather nicely, but if you want the Platinum, you're gonna have to really dedicate yourself for...

Same list besides the addition
Not only does Genshin Impact look and run so much better with its new and improved PlayStation 5 version, but team Mihoyo has also given the native edition a Platinum Trophy.

News Returnal Trophy List Spawns Another Easy Platinum from Sony
Survey, progress, die
It has become very clear over the past few years that Sony wants its Trophy lists to be straightforward and achievable for the vast majority of players. When you even have some users who won't buy a game because the Platinum trinket is too tough to unlock, it's easy to understand why. And so after MLB The Show 21 revealed...
News Outriders PS5 Trophy List Rewards Grinding and Experimentation
Back on the grind
While its chances of posting impressive sales numbers on PlayStation platforms are now somewhat slim, Square Enix's Outriders will still have hardcore players placing the game's Platinum Trophy in their sights.

News Mortal Shell, Hunting Simulator 2 Prepped for PS5 Release
Trophy lists confirm next-gen ports
One thing we’ve noticed since the turn of the year is that PlayStation 5 ports are popping up out of nowhere. You’ll recall The Sinking City launching on Sony’s next-gen console in New Zealand this week – before it was even announced by developer Frogwares. Now, two Trophy lists have emerged: Mortal Shell...

News Train Sim World 2 Tacks on Third Full Trophy Set Ahead of Southeastern High Speed Release
Now at over 250 Trophies
Train Sim World 2 is a service game in every sense of the word: it’s regularly updated with new routes, trains, and timetables.

The PS5 exclusive is a multiplayer car combat action game that looks like it could be a hoot. But what about those...
News Some Hitman 3 Players Are Encountering Broken PS5, PS4 Trophies
And the only solution right now is to restart
Well, this is typical, isn’t it? Hitman 3 is the first game in the current trilogy to feature a Platinum Trophy, but the problem is that it’s borderline busted for a number of people. Several of the virtual trinkets pertain to a challenge which involves discovering each area of a given map. Finding...
Be yourself
One nice thing about Sony's first party games — aside from the fact they're usually fantastic — is that their Trophy lists are mostly very manageable. Especially in the last few years, it feels like PlayStation exclusives are getting their Trophies right, allowing players of all skill levels to attain that shiny Platinum without...
News Prove You're the Master of Assassination with Hitman 3's Platinum Trophy
Well done, 47
The previous two Hitman titles are hall of famers on the PlayStation 4, but if fans had one pet peeve it was the absence of a Platinum Trophy. IO Interactive has been listening closely, and it’s added the coveted gong to Hitman 3. This has resulted in an overhaul to way the trinkets work in the new title, meaning there’s an overall...

Tread carefully, samurai
The PlayStation 4 Trophy list for Cyberpunk 2077 is now live on Exophase, meaning we can now begin plotting our path to that all-important Platinum Trophy.

News Worms Rumble Trophies Reveal a Straightforward Path to the Platinum
Incoming
Worms Rumble is coming to both PlayStation 4 and PS5 as a PS Plus game. It makes a ton of sense, given this is a purely multiplayer game, and we're eager to give it a try.

News PS5 Microphone Records Your Voice When You Get a Trophy
And it's making for some fun Demon's Souls videos

News PS4 Players Can't Compare Some Trophy Lists with PS5 Profiles
Games played only on PS5 don't appear
Here's a little thing we've noticed during the PlayStation 5 review process: we currently can't view Trophy lists from games that were started on the new console from a PlayStation 4 system. When you go to compare Trophies, those new titles appear blank without any information on what the PS5 user has done. We...
News Madden NFL 21 PS5 Trophies Emerge, And EA Sports Couldn't Even Update the Icon
Sacked

Well, now the Trophies have rolled out on Sony??

News Fortnite Crafts New PS5 Trophy List, But No Battle Royale Gongs
Save the world
Many had hoped that, with the PlayStation 5 version of Fortnite, developer Epic Games would add some new Trophies for the Battle Royale mode that the majority of people play. We’re afraid not: the game’s next-gen gongs are exactly the same as on the PlayStation 4, meaning they all universally pertain to the largely abandoned Save...
News Destruction AllStars PS5 Trophies Demand Lots of Online Play
We're all connected
Destruction AllStars was due to release on the PlayStation 5 at launch next week, so the title’s probably pretty much done at this point.

News The Godfall PS5 Trophy List Is the Stuff of Nightmares
Tedium defined
Over the PlayStation 4 generation, it really feels like Sony's first-party studios have mastered the art of a Trophy list. They need to be comprehensive, but also fairly realistic to provide you with enough incentive to go for the Platinum Trophy. We were hoping this would extend to third-party studios, but it doesn't look like...
News Demon's Souls PS5 Trophy List Has Another Achievable Platinum
Praise the sun
Just like the Trophy list of Marvel's Spider-Man: Miles Morales, it looks like the Demon's Souls Platinum Trophy is a fairly realistic goal.

News PS5 Redesigns Trophy Sharing with Video Playback
More than a screenshot
Here's a neat little detail that shouldn't be lost amongst today's PlayStation 5 console embargo lift: the next-gen system has redesigned how you share a Trophy unlock with social media.

Poll What's Your New PlayStation Trophy Level?
Level up
Sony’s made the first meaningful change to Trophies since the system was introduced on the PlayStation 3, altering the way level progress is calculated in order to make it feel more rewarding.
