Austin LukeIn anticipation of the announcement of the game there were many assumptions that Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 will become a huge extension for Modern Warfare 2. This did not happen because Activision sells FPS as an independent game for PS5 and PS4, but there is one "But", in which the game literally is a DLC-filing: its trophies. According to PowerPyx, the Modern Warfare 3 trophy list does not have its own list in the PS5 profile, but is classified as DLC for Modern Warfare 2.
The Modern Warfare 3 version for PS4 has its own list and platinum trophy, but the version for the PS5 is located in the Modern Warfare 2 section, and therefore, a completely different game is required to get a 100 percent completion in the PS5 profile. In addition to reaching the 55th level in a multiplayer game, you need to go through several tests in the new mode "Zombie" with the open world and complete certain tasks in a single game.
There is no platinum trophy in Cod Modern Warfare 3 on PS5, this is a DLC list for Modern Warfare 2. But in the version for PS4 there is both an independent list and a platinum trophy. What the heck!
This is an unprecedented case when the game of the AAA class worth $ 70 comes out without a platinum trophy, and only a few indie games enter the market without this desired trophy. One of the reasons for this state of affairs may be due to the fact that access to the Call of Duty games is carried out through the Call of Duty HQ application. For several years, games such as Warzone 2, Modern Warfare 2, Vanguard and Black Ops Cold War were controlled by the same launch program, which allows you to switch between them from the same menu.
In practice, this causes more troubles than necessary, but this is done in order to create a single center for all games of the Call of Duty series. This single center can now be repeated in the list of trophies, and as the main name for everything that comes under it, Modern Warfare 2 is chosen. However, the collections of several games have been bypassing this problem for several years.
So, in the Mass Effect Legendary Edition for each of the three games there were separate lists of trophies, and in the recent Metal Gear Solid: Master Collection this problem was solved very awkwardly, but each game for PS1 and PS3 received a platinum separately. There is a way to get around this problem, but it seems that Activision did not use it. Therefore, if you really need a platinum trophy in Modern Warfare 3, called A Soldier’s Purpose, then you will definitely have to go through a version for PS4.
Finally, we recall that the release of Call of Duty: Modern Warfare III will be held on November 10 on PC and PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One and Xbox Series X/S Cantileum.
