It’s safe to say that the trophy list for the original release of The Last of Us on PS3 left a lot to be desired. Like many games of the time, it required the player to go through the entirety of the game multiple times on all of its difficulty settings to complete. While that practice isn’t unheard of today, Sony has really started leaning into its increased accessibility offerings with its first-party titles over the last few years, so trophies tied to game difficulty have mostly been canned by the publisher.
The trophy list for The Last of Us Part 1, the PS5 remake, is largely the same as the original list, however, it’s gutted all of the difficulty trophies that made the original such a tedious Platinum. Additionally, it contains trophies for elements that weren’t in the original game such as safes and workbench tools. Obviously, the difficulty settings are still included in the game, with the infamous “Grounded” mode being one of gaming’s toughest challenges, so players of all skill levels are able to enjoy everything that The Last of Us Part 1 has to offer.
The Last of Us Part 1 Trophy List
As mentioned above, the trophy list for The Last of Us Part 1 looks a lot like the list for the original game, but with a few alterations. Some simply break up the collectibles needed for unlocking different trophies, but others showcase some of the changes coming to the game that weren’t present in the original such as the “Live Bait” trophy which has the player lure an infected into attacking a human enemy, a gameplay situation that simply wasn’t in the original.
Based on its changes, however, it seems like more players than ever will be looking to complete the list and snag the Platinum trophy for their collection. Who knows, it may even convince some to put the time into revisiting the original game or its PS4 remaster on the harder modes in hopes of earning a Platinum for it too.
As The Last of Us Part 1 isn’t officially out yet, we don’t know its full trophy list for certain, however, it seems like we may have seen it in full thanks to a leaker on Twitter (@NaughtyNDC.) This article will be updated to reflect the full list of trophies once the game officially releases.
