PS5 and PS4 Platinum Trophy Disappears Due to Server Shutdown

As the gaming community continues to grapple with the issue of lost trophies due to server shutdowns on the PS5 and PS4, another game has fallen victim to this unfortunate trend. Today marks the disablement of servers for WWE 2K23, effectively locking out players from earning several trophies, including the highly sought-after Platinum.

### Call for Action from PS5 and PS4 Players Regarding Multiplayer Trophies

PlayStation enthusiasts have been vocal in their efforts to urge Sony to reconsider the requirements for multiplayer trophies when it comes to achieving Platinum status. This is especially a point of contention in games primarily focused on single-player experiences with added online components. Suggestions have been made for Sony to require developers to adjust trophy lists and eliminate multiplayer trophy requirements once servers are scheduled for shutdown.

Honestly, it’s hard to imagine Sony implementing such changes. Despite the frustration it causes some players, trophy hunting remains a relatively niche pursuit within the broader gaming community.

Regarding WWE 2K23, the game’s publisher, 2K, has announced that all online features, including online matches and Community Creations, are no longer available. Players still have the option to play the game offline, but as of November 1, 2024, both the game and its add-ons have been removed from digital stores.

Now that WWE 2K23 has gone offline for good, WWE 2K24 remains the sole game in the series with active online features. For those readers who own WWE 2K24 and are intent on trophy collection, we recommend you complete your progress by the close of 2025.
