You grind for a Platinum, then wonder if your effort stands out. PlayStation shows your trophy count, but it does not show how hard each win really was. TrueTrophies fills that gap. This guide explains what the site does, how its scoring works, and how to plan smarter trophy runs.
What Is TrueTrophies?
TrueTrophies is a PlayStation trophy tracking site. You link your PSN profile, and the site scores your trophies by rarity. Its leaderboard page calls it the home of PlayStation trophies for PS5 and every other PlayStation platform.
Think of it as a stats dashboard and a community hub in one place. The official site lives at truetrophies.com.
Who Runs the TrueTrophies Website?
The TrueGaming Network publishes the site. The same group runs TrueAchievements for Xbox and TrueSteamAchievements for Steam, so all three share a similar scoring idea.
The site is independent. Sony runs the PlayStation Network, and TrueTrophies reads the public trophy data from it. Community members add solutions, guides, and forum posts.
How Does the TrueTrophy Score Work?
Sony gives every trophy a base point value. TrueTrophies then multiplies that value by a rarity ratio. The harder a trophy is to earn, the higher the multiplier.
| Trophy type | Sony base points | What the site adds |
|---|---|---|
| Bronze | 15 | Multiplies by the TT Ratio |
| Silver | 30 | Multiplies by the TT Ratio |
| Gold | 90 | Multiplies by the TT Ratio |
| Platinum | 300 | Multiplies by the TT Ratio |
The site’s own FAQ gives a clear example. In it, 31% of tracked players had a Bronze trophy, which produced a ratio of 1.79. That turned 15 base points into a score of 26.
You can read the full explanation in the TrueTrophies FAQ.
Why Does Your TrueTrophy Score Change Over Time?
The score depends on how many tracked players have each trophy right now. When more people unlock a trophy, its ratio drops. When fewer people unlock it, the ratio rises.
So your total can move even when you earn nothing new. Treat the score as a live measure of rarity, not a fixed number.
How Do You Join TrueTrophies and Start Tracking?
Setup takes a few minutes:
- Open the official site and create an account.
- Link your PSN ID to your profile.
- Check your PSN privacy settings so your trophies are visible to the site.
- Wait for your first sync, then review your games and trophies.
- Add goals for the games you want to finish next.
Which Stats Does TrueTrophies Show?
Your profile turns a plain trophy list into useful numbers.
| Stat | What it tells you |
|---|---|
| TrueTrophy score and ratio | How rare your wins are |
| Completion percentage | How close you are to finishing a game |
| Rarest trophies | Your toughest achievements |
| Fastest and slowest completions | Your pace across games |
| Most played genres | Where your time goes |
| Trophy streaks | Consecutive days of earning trophies |
| Leaderboards | How you compare with other trackers |
The leaderboards also include Competitive Ratio tiers, such as 1.2+ and 2.0+. These tiers separate players who focus on rare trophies from those who collect easy ones. See them on the TrueTrophies leaderboards.
What Is a TrueTrophies Year in Review?
A year-in-review page sums up your trophy history. Push Square covered a decade-long breakdown in 2020 that listed rarest trophies, quickest and slowest completions, and most played genres.
Searches like “my PlayStation story” or “my year on PlayStation” usually lead to Sony’s yearly recap. Sony’s recap shows your play. The TrueTrophies version adds rarity-based trophy analysis.
Does TrueTrophies Work on PS5 and PS4?
Yes. The site covers PS5, PS4, PS3, and Vita. Open any TrueTrophies PS5 or PS4 page to see the trophy list, rarity, and community solutions.
The site also shows Sony’s own rarity labels, such as Common, Rare, and Very Rare. Read the rarity announcement to see how the two systems differ.
Is There a TrueTrophies App?
I could not confirm a standalone official app. The website works in a phone browser, so start there.
Be careful in app stores. Unofficial apps may copy the name. Never type your PSN password into a third-party app, because tracking sites read public trophy data and do not need your login.
