Surprisingly, Sony is revising the trophies for the PS4 and PS5. The changes take effect tomorrow, October 8th. Here’s what’s changing for you.
Sony is overhauling the trophy system on PlayStation. This is happening surprisingly and applies to both PlayStation 4 and the upcoming PlayStation 5. We explain what is changing.
What is the biggest change? The main change is the transition of the level system. Previously, PlayStation had levels from 1 to 100. In the new system, the trophy level is increased to 1 to 1000.
Additionally, the value of individual trophies will also be adjusted. If you were level 12 in the old system, then according to Sony you are in the 200 range in the new system. However, this also depends on the trophies you have collected on PlayStation. So if you have for example received the Platinum trophy for FUT 20 in FIFA 20, then you can be happy.
Because in the new system, the rare Platinum trophies are much more valuable. Here we explain how you can for example get the 4 rarest trophies in Elder Scrolls Online.
By the way, when announcing the overhaul, Sony leaked another cool feature for trophies on the PS5: Trophy Progress Tracker – Sony leaks cool feature for trophy hunters
