Trophies

Trophies are virtual awards that are used to mark a player's accomplishments within games that support them. Introduced with PlayStation 3 firmware update 2.40 on July 2, 2008, they have appeared on every PlayStation system since. When accessing the system's trophy screen, they are synced with the PlayStation Network, and are counted towards the player's "trophy level", indicated by the gold star on their profile page. Synced trophies can also be used to compare realtive progress between two users within a given title.

With the exception of LittleBigPlanet Portable, every LittleBigPlanet game on a Sony platform includes a wide selection of trophies to go after. In LittleBigPlanet 2, LittleBigPlanet PS Vita and LittleBigPlanet 3, these are unlocked through in-game Pins, which also keep track of the player's achievements. Barring Sackboy's Prehistoric Moves and Run Sackboy! Run! every title also offers a platinum trophy as a reward for obtaining all the other bronze, silver and gold trophies.

As LittleBigPlanet 3 and Sackboy: A Big Adventure are cross-generation titles, they both have two separate sets of trophies, one for each platform they were released on. As a result, it is possible to unlock the trophies for those games twice on a single account.

List of Trophies

Platinum trophy 8 | Gold trophy 39 | Silver trophy 92 | Bronze trophy 334

Including cross-generation duplicates, there are a grand total of 473 trophies across all titles. Each game that supports trophies has its own article listing them off. Note that although content is widely backwards compatible across the main trilogy, trophies are self contained, i.e. trophies from the original LittleBigPlanet cannot be earned in either of the later two entries.

Trophies from Downloadable Content

On top of all the other content they bring to the table, certain downloadable level kits may introduce their own set of trophies and Pins to go after. Note that even if their content is usable in other titles, the trophies and Pins can only be unlocked in the game they were originally released for. The following level kits are required to achieve 100% completion on their respective trophy lists, but are not required for, or counted towards, earning platinum trophies.
