PlayStation 5 finally adds individual trophy tracking progress

While trophies and achievements do little in the way of adding a significant degree of substance to a game, the feature is loved by many, and for some, adds an extra degree of satisfaction in playing and completing a game. That being said, trophy tracking on PlayStation has historically been somewhat frustrating as the progress of more long-term trophies could not be checked. It appears as though this is finally set to change with PlayStation 5.

On its blog, Sony recently informed its users of a number of revamped mechanics coming to the PlayStation trophy system. Alongside the reassessment of how much progress towards your total score a trophy will provide, the leveling up system has also been altered, changing the level cap from 100 to 1000.

Most interestingly however – as discovered by ResetEra user Toumari – on the French PlayStation blog, Sony revealed that with the PlayStation 5 “you will be able to track your progress towards earning individual trophies for compatible PS5 games. For example, sometimes you'll see how many artifacts you have left to collect, or how many armor upgrades you need to get before unlocking the Trophy.”

This new feature is especially useful for games which require you to collect a certain number of items, or to perform an action a select number of times. The lack of trophy progress tracking during times such as those could be frustrating to some, and so it is good to see Sony rectifying it.

KitGuru Games: Predicting the Next Half a Decade of Call of Duty Releases

Benjamin Franklin (1706-1790) famously once said: “The three absolutes in life are death, taxes and a new Call of Duty coming out every single year”. Sure enough, the US founding father has yet to be proven wrong, with Activision and a dozen studios having ensured that come the tail-end of any given year, there will be a new COD ready to release. And so, what can we expect from the franchise later this year? What about 2027, 2028 or even 2030? By looking back at the past two decades of Call of Duty games, their trends, progression and regression, I believe I can predict the next 5 years worth of annual COD entries.
