PS Plus leaving games trophy difficulty breakdown

Game and Trophy List	Length	Difficulty	Missables
Horizon Forbidden West trophies	60-80 hours	3/10	—
Marvel's Midnight Suns trophies	60-80 hours	3/10	4
Dragon Ball Xenoverse 2 trophies	50-60 hours	4/10 (skill dependant)	—
Alien Isolation trophies	35-40 hours	6/10	2
Cloudpunk trophies	10+ hours	3/10	5
Nier Replicant trophies	60-80 hours	3/10	3
Spiritfarer trophies	40-50 hours	3/10	7

Star Ocean Integrity and Faithlessness trophies	100+ hours	4/10	8
Star Ocean The Last Hope trophies	500+ hours	5/10	15
Star Ocean Till The End Of Time trophies	100+ hours	7/10	3

Those of you wanting an easy trophy hunt will want to set your eyes on Horizon Forbidden West, Cloudpunk, and Marvel's Midnight Suns. All four of these games are excellent choices that will provide you with stellar experiences all around. However, Midnight Suns, Horizon, and Nier Replicant will take at least 60 hours each to beat. So, make sure you have the time available.

If it's an average level of difficulty while you trophy hunt then we have a bevy of fantastic titles for you to rummage through. You can dive into four of the five Star Ocean titles or Dragon Ball Xenoverse 2. All five of these titles will provide you with a healthy challenge.

For all of you masochists who want the hardest trophy hunt possible we offer you Alien Isolation and Star Ocean Till The End of Time, both of which are going to take patience and determination on your part. However, both platinums are certainly achievable, but once again, please be aware that Till The End of Time will take over 100 hours to complete.

However, I just want to point out that while Star Ocean The Last Hope only has a difficulty rating of five, the wild amount of time it can take to platinum definitely bumps it into the harder category. The Last Hope can take an insane 500 hours to platinum!

If none of the aforementioned trophy lists appeal and you plan to play something else on PS Plus, make sure you check our unobtainable PS Plus platinum trophies guide to avoid wasting your precious trophy hunting time.
