Yesterday, Sony announced some changes to how your PlayStation Trophy level will work going forward. The new system introduces a new set of levels going all the way up to 999, and Trophy values have been readjusted at the same time.
The good news is that this update to Trophies is coming online right now in all regions. Those in North America have had the update for a few hours, while it's rolling out across Europe as we speak.
As an example of what the changes mean for your Trophy level, this author was level 29 earlier today, and has now been bumped up to level 382. As per the below image, that puts your Trophy-hunting scribe in Silver Tier 1:
Has the big Trophy update landed for you yet? Sync those Trophies and let us know in the comments section below.

Oh. They're not changing the icons anymore?
Anyone elses database get corrupted from this? Luckily nothing was lost that i can see, but my homescreen returned to factory settings and some folders went missing.
Still. Trophy level 476 😂
The funny thing is I'm only level 6, while my friend who has less trophies than me displays as level 47.
Get rid of levels entirely. Just have the number of trophies.
Stephen with the best theme, there!
@get2sammyb Correct
What is the name of this theme, please?
Mine popped last night. I got my Ghost plat (bringing me to 4) and noticed the change.
@jiricek9
That's the PS2 theme (legacy dynamic).

@jiricek9 Legacy Dashboard Theme! https://store.playstation.com/en-gb/product/EP9000-CUSA07875_00-PSLEGACYTHEME001
Mine updated and put me at 537
I thought they may done the app to but still the same
Mine still hasn't updated yet. Still at my lowly 14.
@hoffa007 My app has updated. Check again.
Finally got mine to update. Went from 27 to 402!
Went from 15 to 261. But I thought y'all said they were changing the icons too...
Mine not yet updated. This is great news for me. The only thing that the xbox was better for in my opinion is their achievement system. It shows your progress all the time. I hated the long long wait between levels on PS. Ive been level 14 for about 3 years!!!! Im not a completionist, but i do like to get trophies. So, YES.
@TheArt Think that might need a patch. New icons will definitely be on PS5.
Updated. Can't remember what I am though.... I'll look at the app.
12 plats, level 290.
I think that binding of isaac plat was worth 200 levels at least!
I was lv30, 68%, now lv426, 47%.
Should be Silver tier 2, but no new symbols yet.
Someone clever calculated the new trophy points (same, accept Plat is now worth 300) and level scaling

Mine hasn't updated yet, so I'm still at level 13.
From Lv 30 (56 plats) to Lv 425.
Definitely like the change. Previously it took forever to change level as you got higher. E.g. Mystic (YouTube) said it took him something like 30 platinum's to go from 31-36. Which was frankly ridiculous
I feel that my Red Dead 2 plat should automatically bump me up to 999+1
Mine still not updated will check again later. So with this new system say a certain trophy is hard to get you get more towards your level, so I think the last of us plat only had a small % achieved so more points than say something like telltale games where the % is higher. So technically someone on a lower level than you originally could now be a higher level depending on which trophies they have.
I have no idea what that trophy level means. Lvl 258 while completely ignoring trophies and less than 2 years owning a PS4. I never understood trophy whoring.
Mine still hasn't updated. I'm in the US too which I thought was supposed to be updated last night. Hmmm...
Looking forward to November 19th getting my trophy level 1
Mine just bumped up to 247
@get2sammyb is the best PS5 sales marketer thus far this year 😆
@DragonSlayer1759 Xbox Achievements have no platinums. It was annoying when I had 1000/1000G for both ME2 and LA Noire only to be ruined by updates looking like 1000/1200G. Well yeah trophies also change from 100% to probably 84% or something because of updates but at least there's the PLAT glowing to show for it. And you staying at lvl 14 for 3 years is why I think this update is being implemented, so we can steadily climb.
@Rhaoulos Trophies gives you many reasons to keep replaying games. It makes you find secrets and do things otherwise you wouldn't have or have missed. It adds to longevity.
@Rob_230 "Anyone elses database get corrupted from this?"
Mine has been corrupted a few times over the past year or so. And playing The Witcher 3 - I know, 4 years behind - my autosaves were giving me a corruption error almost every time so I turned them off. Hopeing w/ my saves on PS+ I won't lost anything, I'm like 50 hours in and the end seems mighty far away still.
If it happens again after this update I'll let ya know though.
I just went to the website on my PC and it's still the same info as yesterday.
13 - 91% - 1 - 37 - 210 - 1432 Total 1680
Does my PS4 need to update first?
It's funny because my PS3 Trophy list updated me to level 219, but my PS4 Trophy list hasn't changed and I'm still at 12.
@TheIdleCritic thanks I checked but nothing so maybe it will shortly.
So I was level 15 with 19 platinums, and am now level 265. Not sure how the new levels are calculated...
Still not live in Canada
Edit: seems spotty for the upgrade so far; some friends have the new level and some don’t even though we’re all nearby.
Man, the jump from 40 to 499 really feels good. Nevertheless, I don't really understand the weighted average given now.
Any idea when this will be for everyone. Still waiting on mine and most of my friends in the US to change.
@Dan_ozzzy189 i agree with you. Took me many restarts due to glitched trophies. 5 years it took me!!!
I'm in UK, still no update.
Mine hasn't updated yet but certain friends on my list have!? Do you need to earn and sync a trophy first?
I'm from the UK btw.
EDIT: It's done it, gone from lvl 57 to lvl 605. I just earned a trophy then synced.
Mine has yet to update, but my roommates did last night. I've noticed only about 40% of my friends list in randomly selected areas have had the update. Is there any news on when it will hit the rest of us?
@Waa-Laa mines hasn't updated yet and im in the uk too. Was there anything u did to update it?
@FutureZombie3000 Try pressing Options on the Trophies screen and doing a Sync. I did this and my level updated after a few minutes without me having to earn any new trophies.
Mine still hasn't updated, I already tried syncing 😔
@JimbobLink @FutureZombie3000 I manually synced but my level didn't change, I just earned a trophy and synced and my level changed. Maybe it's different for everyone.
Still trying to get mine to update, restarted, synced, still on level 14.
