We all know the deal with PS Plus Premium’s retro releases: Trophies are optional, and while that’s sometimes disappointing, if it ultimately means more games get emulated for contemporary consoles, then we’re largely fine with it. Of course, Sony has generally been adding trinkets to its titles for launch – and some third-party releases, like the recent Herc’s Adventures, have been updated to add gongs.
And while there was disappointment about the TimeSplitters trilogy initially, it looks like Trophies could be added at a later date.

We’ll contact Deep Silver and see if we can get further confirmation. It’s worth noting that if Trophies do get added, they’re unlikely to be retroactive, so you may want to sit tight on your playthrough and wait for the update.
