PlayStation fans have the opportunity to earn those sweet virtual trophies to show off their gaming skills, and now looks like those very same players will be given the chance to earn IRL platinum trophies to rep that Sony pride. The company announced recently their plans to hold a contest in Australia for the chance to earn a physical version of those beloved trophies on the platform.

So how does one go about getting this coveted trophy? The rules are simple and require a bit of strategic gaming because there are certain titles that qualify for this contest. For players that unlock the platinum trophy in those specific games, simply take a screenshot it and upload it to Facebook and Twitter and tag the PlayStation Australia account @PlayStationAU. Don't forget the hastag - #PlusPlatinumHunters!


The official rules are stated as such:

STEP 1

Earn a Platinum Trophy in Game

Collect all in-game trophies and unlock the Platinum Trophy for the title specified above.

STEP 2

Share Your Trophy Online

From the Capture Gallery on PS4, find your Platinum Trophy Screenshot and press the Share Button on your DUALSHOCK 4 to open sharing options.

STEP 3

Select your preferred platform

Share to either Facebook or Twitter, following the instructions below.

Enter via Twitter
From the Share Screenshot screen on PS4, select Twitter. Enter the hashtag #PlusPlatinumHunters and tag @PlayStationAU in the Comment and then select Share.

Though the contest could evolve in the future, the current three games that qualify include FIFA 18, Gran Turismo Sport, and Call of Duty WWII. Another game is expected to be added to the roster, though has yet to be revealed at the time this article was written.

RepBandit Wish this was in the united states, this would be pretty badass to own. Id probably sell on ebay for alot of money.


They would all probably try and sell them on ebay there's probably people already selling them. I would keep it tho maybe sell it later down the line.


Would people actually buy ones under other people's name though?

-Silky This is awesome from Sony, have to give Xbox the L on that.


What is xbox gonna do? Hand out achievement stickers? Wait no they have diamond achievements, so diamonds? Nah. Besides there's probably gonna be like 3 people who get this, AND its in AUSTRALIA.


They could still give something out.

It sucks that it's only in Australia, but nonetheless this is a cool idea.

This is quite cool but pointless, It would be nice to own one of these though.
Would be better if xbox done something similar to this, Then it would be a must have.
