This Incoming PS Plus Premium Classic Will Have a Full Set of Trophies
Psi-Ops: The Mindgate Conspiracy, a PS2 action title from 2004, is being re-released as an emulated PS5 and PS4 game next week and will be included in PS Plus Premium. Sony's servers have confirmed the game will ship with a full set of trophies, including a Platinum, ahead of its 21st July launch. This matters for subscribers keen on trophy hunting, as classic re-releases don't always receive full trophy support.
Most trophies revolve around defeating the campaign's bosses, but there are also skill-based challenges, such as landing a two-enemy headshot or clearing a level undetected, plus a collectible hunt for 14 hidden Evil Garden Gnomes. The story takes roughly 12 hours to finish, meaning the Platinum should be achievable in around 15 hours, and the PS5 emulated version adds quality-of-life features like rewind and save states to ease progress.
In short
- Psi-Ops: The Mindgate Conspiracy re-releases on PS Plus Premium with a Platinum trophy
- Trophies include boss fights, stealth and headshot challenges, and 14 hidden gnomes
- Emulated version adds rewind and save states; launches 21 July
Explained simply
PlayStation Plus Premium is a subscription service that gives subscribers access to a library of older games, including titles from previous PlayStation generations. The service regularly adds classic games as re-releases, allowing players to experience these titles on newer systems.
Psi-Ops: The Mindgate Conspiracy is a 2004 action game originally released for PlayStation 2. The game follows a secret agent using psychic powers to complete various missions.
Trophies are achievements that players can unlock whilst playing PlayStation games, with a Platinum trophy awarded for unlocking all of them in a game. When older games are re-released on newer systems, they do not always receive trophy support, which can disappoint subscribers who enjoy trophy hunting.
