Xbox Adopts PlayStation-Style Platinum Trophies Later in 2026

3 articles · Updated · Push Square · Aug 5

Asha Sharma said Xbox is "working on something for later this year," confirming the platform will add a PlayStation-style Platinum-style completion reward in 2026.
The move would split recognition beyond Xbox's single Gamerscore, borrowing Sony's format that highlights both overall play volume and full-game completion.
Key details are still unclear, including whether the new system will apply retroactively to the tens of thousands of Xbox games already released.
The change flips a long-running dynamic: Sony originally built Trophies in response to Xbox 360 achievements, and Xbox is now adopting one of PlayStation's signature progression features.
