Unlock the Ultimate Gaming Hack: PlayStation Players Score Free Platinum Trophies with Unexpected Update Bug
PlayStation gamers are unexpectedly achieving Platinum trophies due to a glitched game update, bypassing the need to earn them through regular gameplay
An update for the survival game Stranded Deep has inadvertently made it effortless for some PlayStation gamers to obtain a free Platinum trophy. In Sony's achievement system, trophies are categorized as Bronze, Silver, Gold, and Platinum. To earn the Platinum trophy, which signifies 100% completion, players must first attain all the Bronze, Silver, and Gold trophies.
Typically, Platinum trophies are known for being challenging and time-consuming to achieve. They often require significant effort and dedication. However, some PlayStation games do have relatively easy Platinum trophies. Nevertheless, even the easiest Platinum trophies usually necessitate some level of effort from the player. Stranded Deep, however, defies this norm due to a recent bug that has drastically simplified the process of unlocking its Platinum trophy.
Players of Stranded Deep have discovered an exploit where they can easily acquire a free Platinum trophy by participating in co-op gameplay with someone who has already obtained it. Joining a Stranded Deep co-op session will automatically unlock all the trophies that the hosting player has acquired. As of now, no plans have been announced to rectify this glitch, granting interested players ample time to utilize this workaround.
To obtain Stranded Deep, those without access to the game must first acquire it. However, some PlayStation gamers may already possess the game without being aware of it. As a reminder, Stranded Deep was one of the complimentary PS Plus games in May 2021. If individuals claimed the game during that time and currently maintain an active PlayStation Plus subscription, they can download it and employ this technique to earn their free Platinum trophy.
Furthermore, for those who didn't manage to claim Stranded Deep while it was part of the free PS Plus games lineup, the game is presently accessible via PS Plus Extra. In case you are unfamiliar, PS Plus Extra stands as the intermediate level of Sony's PlayStation Plus subscription service. It encompasses all benefits of PS Plus Essential while granting users access to a selection of PS4 and PS5 games.
To easily obtain the Platinum trophy, it is necessary to find someone who already has it in the game. The PSN Profiles forum, where this exploit was originally found, is a recommended starting point. The more individuals who achieve this Platinum, the simpler it will become for others to unlock.
