I confirm this list with what I see on my PS5 as well in the USA Region. Thank you for finding and posting this!

 

"Bioshock (all 3)" = Bioshock 1, Bioshock 2, Bioshock Infinite - just in case anyone doesn't know them

 

Half of these I half from over the years of PS Plus.

Just when you finally decide what to play, the games leaving through you off course. Will probably try finish Stray and do Bioshock 2. Just incase anyone doesn't know,  Bioshock 1&2 on EU Plus are the ones that stack separate from the Bioshock Collection.

Glad I plated Raiden V last month, unless you are just extremely terrible at vertical scrolling shooters there should still be time to plat it from scratch. Fun game and a great soundtrack. Completing on easy difficulty without getting a game over and having to select continue is still a decent challenge, but there is an auto-save at the start of each stage and at 2 other points during the stage so you can back-up and revert if you don't feel you played satisfactorily through a section of each level. That's the plat breaker, once you get that done what mainly takes awhile is the time grind of shooting down the collectibles.

[LastMinuteSavior]

Woah. Stray's leaving? That's so weird for some reason.

 

Well, thank you for your service, little cat dude.

 

 

[jgm4789]

Yeah, kinda relieved i only need to do 3 games out of the list(stray, raiden 5 and fluster cluck). I am annoyed stray is leaving before i can get a ps5(realistically in october at the earliest) but ill knock out the ps4 version and rebuy it in a year or 2 when its on sale.

[Steven-Spiegel]

The last I know, Lonely Mountains Downhill has one paid DLC, should have an exclamation icon.

 

The paid DLC is Eldfjall Island, currently at 50% 2,99 €/$ but usually cost about 5,99€/$.

[Hitman_Spinksy1]

Going to have to finally get round to Stray it seems

The strange thing is that tomorrow there's the Annapurna showcase and in the tease video there's Stray so idk I think a dlc is more likely rathen than a full blown sequel. I really hope that they do not remove the full game just before a dlc drop/announcement ?

Is Bioshock remastered a worthwile game/platinum? I haven't played the original but am fully aware of its relevance, but the guide says it is prone to crash and has buggy trophies

Nothing is buggy or crashing. You can play the first on easy and change to survivor after you deal the final blow to the boss to get the difficulty trophy. The second is easier on hard.

 

Eh well, I thought to stack the 2 Bioshocks in the future but now I'll remove them from the list.

Thanks for this info it will help alot, i want also to plat this game before it leaves the service, any other tips you would kindly provide me? Are there any online/ coop trophies? Or all can be done solo offline?

The Bioshock trilogy is most definitely worth playing. I've played all of them on PS4 and had no issues that I can recall. If time is an issue then at least go for the Platinum in Bioshock and then decide if you like the game enough to play the others at a later date.

There isn't a trophy guide for Raiden V on this site, but if you search there is one on another site.

There are 3 types of weapons you can cycle through based on what pick-up you grab that appears: orange (spread machine gun), blue (laser), and purple (homing weapon). So there are 3 weapon types, and each weapon type has 3 choices. You pick 1 of each type to mount at the start of your run. You can experiment to see which you like more but I prefer orange (Swing Vulcan), blue (reflect laser), and purple (Catch Plasma). Swing Vulcan is pretty similar to wide vulcan ( a spreadshot) except when you fly to the left or right it angles the spreadshot in the direction you are moving so it is easier to hit enemies on the opposite side of the screen. Swing Vulcan also has a slightly tighter shot pattern so it absolutely annihilates bosses. For that reason it is a good idea to try to end each stage with Swing Vulcan. Reflect laser fires a prism out that when you shoot it with the laser splits the beam. It turns your forward only shooting laser into basically a screen-sized weedwhacker. One of the weakness of the other blue lasers is they can only fire forward, but reflect covers all directions, including behind you. This makes it much easier to shoot all the enemies while you have to use the blue laser to upgrade it. Catch Plasma has tentacles that home onto anything that gets within a certain range of your ship, and then locks on and does continuous damage to it until it is destroyed. That is very handy for some of the levels when a bunch of weak ships are quickly flying by or when they come up behind you.

 

There is one online trophy, cheer squad, but that will come very early. There is an online leaderboard you connect to that has various tasks, every time you do the tasks you will get a cheer and your cheer gauge will rise. They are very simple things so you will get the required 50 in no time. The cheer gauge lets you trigger a special cheer attack that fires one of several special weapon attacks like a volley of homing missiles in all directions, sweeping laser swords that destroy all bullets in range, etc. There are no co-op trophies in this Raiden List.

 

Look up on youtube the location of the Sol Towers in each stage, the guide explains it terribly. To trigger the Sol Tower you have to put the shadow of your craft over it to power it down, which causes it to rise up out of the ground, and then you can destroy it. There is only 1 per some stages and you will have to destroy 100 of them for a trophy so you want to collect them whenever you can in order to lessen the grind later.

You will also need to collect 1000 of a certain kind of medal, these spawn when you destroy ground based units. Unlike the medals from the air-based ships that will fly toward your ship as soon as you stop firing for a second, the ground based medals stay fixed in place, you have to fly over collect them. So collect as many as possible as you play to lessen the grind later.

 

The walkthrough advocates doing the first run on normal difficulty for a specific reason, I agree with this.

For the next several runs in which you unlock all the routes they recommend doing it in practice mode (in which the enemies don't fire at you) I do not agree with this. That is because of two other grindy trophies: Janitor and intercept. In a late stage, you have the opportunity to shoot down debris from an asteroid field, over several playthroughs you have to destroy 1000 debris, but it only counts on easy difficulty or higher. It's the same with intercept, destroying 500 planes that drop the colored weapon power ups, you only get credit for this on easy+ difficulty. You can die and continue as many times as you want during this stage of unlocking all the routes, so you might as well do it on easy difficulty instead of practice difficulty to cut down the later grind on these two trophies. It will also be good practice for your eventual 1CC easy difficulty run as you can figure out when in each stage it's best to have which of the 3 weapons, what order to upgrade them (you have to upgrade them all pretty evenly as you go or you will be stuck upgrading a weak weapon in a late stage which can make it difficult to keep your enemy % destroy rate up to stay on the S route), when you will need to use bombs, practice dodging enemy shots, etc. You can also skip the step of getting 80 million points in practice mode for now as you will very likely also get it during your 1 CC easy difficulty run or True Ending practice mode run.

 

There are 6 endings, the trophy guide has the text ending for each of the 6 as it can be tough to know which one you got otherwise. So have the guide up handy whenever you beat the game (you might also want to take a screen shot of the first page of dialogue each time you beat the game to keep track) so that you know which if any you are missing. The guide is not sure of the conditions for the true ending, after experimentation I believe it is: all S routes, max all 3 weapons, do it all in one sitting on 1 CC with no restart of ANY kind (no exit game and continue, no scene or chapter restarts, and no dying and continuing) which you can pretty easily do on practice mode.

 

For the 1CC easy route, it is probably a good idea to have two back-ups. A thumb drive as a "in case of large screw up" that you back-up every couple stages, and then the PS+ save file slot (if you have it) to back-up to every time you clear a 1/3rd of the stage or so to your satisfaction (each stage is divided into 3 scenes). If you take too much damage during a scene, you don't have to exit and revert your save, just restart scene from the pause menu and your ship will be back to the condition it was at the start of the scene. What I often did was quit and do a PS+ back-up at the start of a new stage, then rely on "restart scene" for the rest of the stage, unless I performed particularly perfect, then I went ahead and stopped at the end of the scene to do a new PS+ back-up.

Coming up on 1 year since it's release so timed exclusivity is probably ending then, perhaps it's going day 1 "exclusively" to game pass and so Microsoft doesn't want it also on PS+ at that time. But yes, fun little cat game. I would be interested in a sequel in that game world.

Sucks that Stray ? ? is leaving the service. I definitely wanna play that before it leaves. 

[Puppeter04]

I hope they give me at least 20 days to finish Marvel Avengers. I'm in that dichotomy now where I've started the game but haven't earned a single trophy so I'll decide if I continue or not after knowing the real date

Edited June 28, 2023 by Puppeter04

[blazkowicz6]

The games are available until 18. July  11AM GMT+2 so that gives you just about 20 days.

I can't stress this point enough, TAKE SCREEN SHOTS of the ending dialogue.  I was going crazy trying to figure out what I was doing wrong thinking the "True Good" ending was what I was missing it turned out to be something random like...Ending B I think?  It showed that I finished the route on the stage selection map but I must have quit out before the final boss or it didn't count or something so don't rely on your unlocked routes for reference.  Overall it didn't cost me any extra time because you have to grind many shot down weapon ships (500 IIRC) and it requires many multiple playthroughs regardless.

 

Amazing write up sir!  That's a good guide to use as a baseline for what to expect.  I also recommend staying in easy and only use practice to knock out a few things as this will lessen the grind later for certain things which require easy or normal, which you highlighted perfectly! Hopefully more people check out the game, I'm far from amazing at shooters but found it relatively simple and it's a wonderful game!
