A Year After Release, NBA 2K18's Trophies Are Finally Working

By Sam Quirke,

Since release, the PlayStation 3 version of NBA-2K18's entire list of trophies has effectively been unobtainable due to a PSN synchronisation error that the developers and Sony have not been able to resolve. That has just changed today, as the trophies have suddenly turned up on the network.

The TrueTrophies scanners have just picked up the full PlayStation 3 trophy list. That means the following 41 trophies now become available:
