PlayStation announced plans to end online support for Infamous and Infamous 2 last month. That wouldn’t typically be an issue for a single-player game, except that the end of that support means Infamous 2’s user-generated content will become inaccessible, which, in turn, means a trophy you need to 100% the game and obtain its platinum will become inaccessible along with it.

The offending trophy is the UGC Veteran bronze trophy. To unlock it, you need to play 25 UGC missions. You’ll need to hurry up if you haven’t popped that trophy already, though, as we are now only one week away from the date on which PlayStation will end support for the game. There has been no update on whether accommodations will be made as it prepares to make the platinum unobtainable forever.

Support for Infamous 2 will end on August 31, 2026. After that date, the sequel will be an entirely offline game.
