Are
you
ready
to
elevate
your
gaming
prowess
to
the
ultimate
challenge?
Buckle
up,
because
we’re
diving
into
the
dazzling
realm
of
PlayStation
Platinum
Trophies!
These
highly
sought-after
digital
accolades
are
not
just
for
show;
they
represent
the
pinnacle
of
achievement
in
the
gaming
universe.
Earned
only
by
those
daring
enough
to
conquer
immersive
virtual
worlds,
defeat
formidable
bosses,
and
hunt
down
every
elusive
collectible,
PlayStation
Platinum
Trophies
are
the

gold
platinum
stars
of
video
gaming
that
showcase
your
dedication
and
skill.

In
this
list,
you’ll
find
the
cream
of
the
crop—the
games
that
have
turned
countless
players
into
trophy-hunting
warriors.
Whether
you’re
swinging
through
the
streets
of
New
York
as
the
Web-Slinger
or
battling
colossal
mechanical
dinosaurs,
these
titles
have
captured
the
hearts
of
gamers
everywhere.
So
grab
your
controller,
call
in
your
gaming
buddies,
and
let’s
see
which
games
made
the
cut
for
Platinum
glory.
Warning:
serious
FOMO
may
occur!

Unfortunately,
the
powers-that-be
at
Sony
don’t
share
the
mountains
of
player
data
they
have
surging
through
their
databases
every
day.
That
means
for
this
list,
I’ve
used

PSN
Profiles,
a
badass
tool
for
anyone
that
wants
to
track
their
Trophies!
However,
the
website
can
only
track
people
who
sign-up,
so
it
cannot
provide
be
100%
accurate.
Keep
that
in
mind
as
you
read
on.

1.
Marvel’s
Spider-Man

Swinging
onto
the
top
spot
on
the
list
is
Marvel’s
Spider-Man,
the
fantastic
super-hero
title
from
Insomniac
Games.
402,000
players
(at
the
time
of
writing)
have
spent
the
time
to
achieve
the
game’s
Platinum
Trophy,
which
accounts
for
8.4%
of
the
people
who
played
the
game.

And
it’s
pretty
easy
to
see
why
people
wanted
to
snag
the
top
Trophy.
Not
only
is
the
game
incredibly
fun
to
play,
but
the
Platinum
is
fairly
easy
to
obtain.
Most
of
the
Trophies
come
from
just
playing
through
the
game
normally.
The
trickiest
part
is
completing
the
Taskmaster
challenges
as
they
don’t
leave
a
lot
of
room
for
error.
After
that,
getting
the
Platinum
boils
down
to
mopping
up
collectibles
around
the
map,
and
luckily
that’s
not
a
chore
because
swinging
around
New
York
is
so
bloody
fun.

Marvel’s
Spider-Man
2
doesn’t
make
the
top
ten,
but
I
can
attest
that
the
Platinum
is
equally
fun
to
snag.
I
managed
to
finish
the
game
with
my
final
trophy
being
to
visit
a
certain
location
(I’m
avoiding
spoilers
just
in
case)
and
it
felt
like
the
perfect
way
to
wrap
it
all
up.

2.
Horizon
Zero
Dawn

Horizon
Zero
Dawn
has
captivated
players
not
just
because
of
its
stunning
visuals
and
rich
narrative,
but
also
due
to
the
allure
of
earning
its
Platinum
Trophy.
An
impressive
299,313
people
have
managed
to
acquire
the
Platinum
Trophy.
While
it’s
generally
classed
as
quite
an
easy
Platinum,
it
does
take
a
reasonable
amount
of
time
at
40-50
hours.

A
significant
driver
of
its
popularity
is
the
game’s
design,
which
encourages
exploration
and
skillful
gameplay.
Players
are
rewarded
for
their
curiosity
as
they
traverse
a
beautifully
crafted
post-apocalyptic
world
inhabited
by
mechanical
creatures.
The
tasks
involved
in
obtaining
the
Platinum
trophy
include
completing
the
main
storyline,
finishing
various
side
quests,
and
discovering
collectible
items
scattered
throughout
the
vast
environments.
It’s
a
good
list
that
pushes
people
to
explore
and
have
fun.

Of
course,
Horizon
Zero
Dawn
also
recently
got
remastered
for
PS5.
It
has
its
own
separate
list
of
Trophies,
but
since
you
can
bring
your
save
over
from
the
original
game,
that
means
you
can
pop
all
those
lovely
Trophies
again
for
a
super-easy
Platinum.
Or
just
play
the
game
again.

3.
God
of
War

The
2018
soft
reboot
of
the
God
of
War
franchise
has
proven
to
be
incredibly
successful
for
Santa
Monica
Studios
and
Sony.
Gone
is
the
world’s
angriest
man
and
in
his
place
is
the
world’s
angriest
dad.
Given
a
kid
to
build
a
relationship
with
and
a
whole
new
pantheon
of
Gods
to
punch
in
the
face,
Kratos
was
allowed
to
grow
as
a
character,
and
while
that
does
mean
losing
the
bad-ass
simplicity
of
who
he
once
was,
the
new
Kratos
is
just
as
captivating.

And
it
really
shows.
God
of
War
has
sold
millions
and
millions
of
copies,
while
PSNProfiles
shows
that
291,524
people
sought
out
the
Platinum
Trophy.
That’s
4.8%
of
tracked
players,
which
is
enough
to
classify
the
Platinum
as
“Ultra
Rare.”

It’s
not
an
overly
challenging
Platinum
to
get,
but
does
take
a
reasonable
amount
of
time,
clocking
in
at
anywhere
from
40-60
hours.
It’s
pretty
much
what
you’d
expect,
too:
beat
the
story,
do
the
side-quests
and
then
you’ll
probably
want
to
wrap
the
whole
thing
up
by
tackling
the
Valkyrie
Queen,
the
toughest
fight
in
the
game.

4.
Rocket
League

Just
2.6%
of
Rocket
League’s
players
have
managed
to
win
themselves
the
Platinum,
although
that
still
amounts
to
an
impressive
256,981
people.
Those
numbers
are
a
testament
to
just
how
wildly
successful
Rocket
League
has
been
since
it
launched
in
2015.

Sure,
moving
to
a
free-to-play
model
in
2020
has
undoubtedly
helped
boost
the
game’s
playerbase,
but
there’s
also
the
fact
that
it’s
just
bloody
good
fun
to
play.
Rocket
League’s
manic
mix
of
vehicular
football,
gravity-defying
moves
and
fast-paced
gameplay
creates
a
very
high
skill
ceiling,
but
even
bumbling
idiots
like
myself
can
have
a
great
time
crashing
into
everything
and
occasionally
scoring
a
goal.

As
for
the
Trophy
hunt,
it
helps
that
almost
everything
can
be
done
by
playing
against
the
AI.
All
of
them
are
quite
easy
to
get.
The
only
issue
is
that
acquiring
all
the
items
takes
some
grinding,
which
trading
and
paying
money
can
shorten.
If
you
want
to
keep
your
wallet
firmly
tucked
away
and
can’t
be
bothered
with
people,
it’ll
take
some
time
to
pick
up
that
shiny,
shiny
Platinum.

5.
Astro
Bot’s
Playroom

Loaded
onto
every
PlayStation
5
and
with
an
easy
set
of
trophies
to
collect,
it’s
not
wonder
that

Astro
Bot’s
Playroom
ranks
so
high
on
the
list.
But
let’s
not
do
it
a
disservice:
while
a
glorified
tech
demo
in
many
regards,
Astro
Bot’s
Playroom
is
heaps
of
fun
and
relentlessly
charming.
That’s
why
260,022
have
scooped
up
the
Platinum
trophy
which
is
aptly
named

You’ve
Only
Done
Everything.

Earning
the
Platinum
here
will
only
take
you
a
few
hours
and
isn’t
going
to
test
your
skills,
but
on
the
way
you’re
going
to
be
subjected
to
an
overload
of
cuteness
and
a
passion
for
PlayStation.
I’ve
thrown
around
the
term
charming
before,
but
Astro
himself
might
be
the
best
embodiment
of
the
term.

The
full-fledged
sequel
also
sports
an
excellent
Trophy
list
and
easy
Platinum,
for
those
interested.

6.
Infamous
Second
Son

Ah,
Infamous.
There’s
a
franchise
we
haven’t
heard
from
in
a
while.
In
fact,
it
has
been
over
a
decade
since
we
got
Infamous
First
Light,
the
expansion
to
Second
Son.

A
solid
246,337
people
have
picked
up
the
Platinum
for
Second
Son,
giving
it
a
rarity
of
5.5%.
That’s
a
pretty
good
ratio,
and
likely
explained
by
it
being
another
fairly
easy
Platinum
to
get
with
an
estimated
difficulty
of
just
2/10.

The
fun
part
is
that
you
have
to
play
through
the
game
twice:
once
picking
all
of
the
good
options,
and
the
other
time
being
a
complete
arsehole.
The
campaign
is
short
enough
that
having
to
go
back
through
doesn’t
feel
tiring,
letting
you
just
enjoy
getting
to
see
how
everything
plays
out
when
let
go
and
become
the
villain.
And
yes,
I’d
probably
recommend
keeping
the
evil
run
for
second,
but
that’s
because
I
personally
suck
at
being
the
bad
guy
in
games.

7.
Bloodborne

Bloodborne
is
easily
the
hardest
Platinum
Trophy
to
earn
on
this
list,
making
it
all
the
more
impressive
that
6.8%
of
PSNProfiles
users
managed
to
snag
it.
That’s
222,220
people.
Even
the
website’s
own
guide
ranks
Bloodborne
as
a
7
out
of
10
on
the
difficulty
scale,
and
if
that
wasn’t
enough
it
takes
an
estimated
30-50
hours
to
do.
In
other
words,
earning
the
Platinum
takes
some
serious
work
and
skills.

With
that
said,
PSNProfiles
is
for
the
more
hardcore
gamers
who
go
out
of
their
way
to
hunt
Trophies,
and
FromSoft’s
games
are
for
the
hardcore
of
the
hardcore.
That
isn’t
to
say
their
games
cannot
be
enjoyed
by
everyone,
but
it’s
fair
to
say
that
a
Platinum
in
any
of
their
games
is
a
hell
of
achievement
and
is
undoubtedly
going
to
be
one
of
a
collector’s
most
prized
accomplishments.

In
other
words,
if
we
could
get
the
Trophy
data
for
all
of
the
gamers
worldwide
and
not
just
those
who
sign
up,
Bloodborne
would
probably
rank
a
lot
further
down.

To
earn
the
Platinum
you’re
going
to
have
to
kill
a
lot
of
bosses,
and
die
more
times
than
you
can
probably
count.
The
most
time
consuming
trophy
will
be

Yharnam,
Pthumerian
Queen
which
is
unlocked
for
beating
the
main
hidden
boss.
Oh,
and
to
get
to
her
you
have
to
battle
twenty
other
bosses.
No
sweat,
right?

8.
Batman:
The
Telltale
Series

Ranked
as
just
a
1
out
of
10
in
terms
of
difficulty
on
PSNProfile’s
own
guide
and
requiring
6-10
hours
to
achieve,
Batman:
The
Telltale
Series
is
probably
the
easiest
Platinum
on
this
list.
Even
Astro’s
Playroom
ranks
as
a
2
out
of
10,
after
all.

The
reason
it’s
so
easy
is
because
the
game’s
trophies
are
all
unmissable
and
tied
to
the
story,
so
provided
you
make
it
to
the
end
(which
involves
a
lot
of
QTEs)
you’ll
pick
up
a
Platinum
titled

I’m
Batman
as
your
reward.
186,048
people
have
donned
the
cowl
and
done
exactly
that,
meaning
14.8%
of
the
people
who
played
Batman:
The
Telltale
Series
can
claim
to
be
Batman.

But
let’s
not
do
a
disservice
to
the
game,
as
Batman:
The
Telltale
Series,
which
was
released
in
2016,
is
very
well
liked.
It
holds
a
decent
critical
score
on
Opencritic
of
71,
and
over
on
Steam
it
has
a
“mostly
positive”
rating
from
players.
It
might
not
go
down
in
history
the
same
way
the
Batman:
Arkham
games
did,
but
the
Telltale
Series
certainly
found
an
audience
in
the
Trophy
hunting
community.

9.
Ghost
of
Tsushima

The
hardest
part
of
doing
the
honourable
thing
by
earning
Ghost
of
Tsushima’s
Platinum
Trophy
isn’t
the
gameplay.
No,
it’s
pulling
yourself
away
from
staring
at
the
amazing
vistas,
writing
haikus
and
soaking
in
hot
springs.
Save
Tsushima,
you
say?
Roving
hordes
of
Mongols,
you
say?
It’ll
have
to
wait,
I
have
a
poem
to
compose.

185,787
did
manage
to
wander
the
land
achieve
the
highest
honor
possible,
equating
to
8.5%
of
players.
That’s
a
pretty
impressive
ratio.
I
mean,

I
got
stuck
making
a
giant
photo
gallery
because
it’s
too
damn
pretty.

Who
can
blame
them
though?
Ghost
of
Tsushima
is
an
excellent
game
with
an
entertaining
Trophy
list
that
tasks
you
with
doing
almost
everything
there
is
to
do.
The
50
or
so
hours
that’ll
take
is
entirely
worth
it.

10.
Marvel’s
Spider-Man:
Miles
Morales

Spidey
makes
it
onto
the
list
twice,
albeit
with
a
different
character
under
the
mask.
Although
it’s
more
like
a
glorified
expansion
pack
than
a
proper
sequel,

Spider-Man:
Miles
Morales
is
still
a
fantastic
game,
and
the
Christmas
setting
somehow
makes
New
York
feel
like
an
entirely
different
place
despite
being
the
same
map.

180,136
have
managed
to
spin
a
Platinum-trapping
web.
And
since
it
follows
pretty
much
the
same
structure
as
the
first
game,
the
Trophy
list
is
a
solid
mix
of
unmissable
story
objectives
and
completing
side-content.
Unlike
the
original
game
though,
you
do
need
to
go
through
New
Game+
in
order
to
get
the
platinum.

So
there
we
have
it,
the
top
ten
most
popular
Platinum
Trophies!
Well,
for
the
moment.
The
list
is
slowly
changing
with
multiple
games
making
their
way
up
the
ladder.
For
now
though,
this
is
what
we
have.

Does
anything
in
the
list
surprise?
Are
there
any
games
you
thought
for
sure
would
be
up
there?
