You Can Get Phantom Blade Zero’s PS5 Platinum Trophy on Its Easiest Difficulty
Phantom Blade Zero, an upcoming PS5 console-exclusive action game from developer Soulframe, will allow players to unlock its complete trophy set, including the platinum trophy, on any difficulty setting. Director Qiwei Liang confirmed that all trophies can be obtained during a single playthrough, regardless of the chosen difficulty level. This means players won’t need to complete the game on hard mode to achieve the platinum trophy—a significant accessibility feature for those who prefer easier difficulties or want to experience the story without high difficulty restrictions.
The trophy accessibility is a notable design choice for the game, as it removes the pressure that often comes with platinum trophy hunting requiring multiple playthroughs or specific difficulty restrictions. This approach makes the platinum achievement more accessible to a broader audience, including those who may struggle with harder difficulty settings but still want to experience the full trophy collection. The decision demonstrates a player-friendly approach to trophy design in a modern action title.
