The classic games coming to the Premium tier of PlayStation Plus in May 2023 will launch with trophy support, as Blade Dancer: Lineage of Light and Pursuit Force will have this feature on day one. PS Plus Premium users get some additional benefits over the other tiers, as they get access to select PS1, PS2, and PSP games at no extra cost.
Many of these titles offer support for trophies, allowing users to earn them for achieving various tasks in the game. The new games added to PS Plus Premium in March 2023 came with trophy support, as both Syphon Filter: Dark Mirror and Ape Academy 2 offered this feature on release. Now, it looks like gamers will be able to earn trophies in the new games coming to PS Plus Premium in May 2023.
As reported by Push Square, trophies for Blade Dancer: Lineage of Light and Pursuit Force have appeared on Exophase, hours before they are said to go live on PS Plus Premium. Fans can earn up to 31 trophies in Pursuit Force, while Blade Dancer: Lineage of Light will allow gamers to unlock 28 trophies. This number includes the highly sought-after platinum trophy for players that can earn all the other trophies in these games.
It should be noted that PS Plus Premium users will also get to play Syphon Filter: Logan's Shadow as a classic game for May 2023, but its trophy list has not appeared as of this writing. However, as other games in the Syphon Filter series came with trophy support, it’s likely for Syphon Filter: Logan's Shadow to also release with this feature.
While many games support this feature at launch, Sony can add trophies to titles already on the service as well. As an example, Sony updated Super Stardust Portable with trophy support earlier this year, even though the game came out on PS Plus Premium in June 2022.
PlayStation Plus Extra and Premium members will get a bunch of new games this month, as Sony will refresh the catalog on May 16. PS Plus Extra subscribers will get to play Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apar t, The Evil Within 2, Thymesia, Shadow of the Tomb Raider, Watch Dogs: Legion, and many more at no extra cost. In addition to Syphon Filter: Logan's Shadow, Blade Dancer: Lineage of Light, and Pursuit Force, Premium members can also play Ghostbusters: The Video Game Remastered as a part of the classics catalog.
