Of the 14 games coming to PlayStation Plus in January 2024, 12 of them come with confirmed trophy lists. So, take a look at the easiest and hardest PS Plus Extra and Premium trophies for December 2023. We suspect a few of these titles will land on our list of PS Plus' easiest platinum trophies.

The easiest and hardest PS Plus Extra and Premium trophies for January 2024

With so many new games coming your way, it can be a little overwhelming trying to decide which title to pick up and play first. This guide will help you figure out which games have the easiest platinums, which games have the longest play time, and which games contain the most missable trophies.

If you're craving some of the easy platinum trophies, then this month's PS Plus selection has a fantastic lineup for you to sink your teeth into. The simplest-looking platinums that are pleading with you to snatch them up are Tiny Tina's Wonderlands, Hardspace Shipbreaker, Lego City Undercover, Surviving the Aftermath, Secret of Mana, and Legend of Mana. Do be aware that most of these titles will take a significant amount of time to platinum despite being simple to earn.

For those of you hunting for a more balanced trophy adventure, this month has been quite kind. The games to keep your eyes on are Resident Evil 2, Vampire The Masquerade Swansong, and Shadow Tactics Blades of the Shogun. I will say that Vampire The Masquerade Swansong can be made substantially easier if you have a guide to hand (turning it into the easiest platinum on the list). However, if you want to keep it a balanced challenge, then play without one. Just be mindful that there are missables to be aware of.

Now, on the hard side of the trophy hunt, this month we have just two games occupying this slot with Session and Just Cause 3. These games will push you to your limits and give you a real beating as you try and earn their respective platinums. With that in mind, there have definitely been much harder games added in previous months. Regardless, we have a feeling one of these titles will wriggle its way onto our list of the hardest platinum trophies.

Lastly, Street Fighter 30th Anniversary Collection does not come with a platinum trophy. The game itself offers up a nice balanced set of trophies to work through — however, if the lack of a platinum is a problem for you, then it may be best to avoid these titles altogether.
