As the title implies this video is all about showing that it IS possible to earn 2 platinum trophies for Friday the 13th The Game on PS4 along with two sets of every other trophy in the game such as PHD in Murder and Roll Credits. What's interesting is that the second platinum is super easy to obtain. Please read on for more information and feel free to ask me questions. I do think this method will also work on Xbox but I cannot check as I only own a PS4.

You need these 3 THINGS to go for the second platinum:

100% completion along with platinum trophy on either digital OR disc version of the game.
A digital AND physical disc version of the game.

That's it, that's all you need to start working towards the second platinum.

Now for instructions on how I managed to get the two platinum's (without even trying). I may capitalise certain words for clarity about the method. This is going to get seriously TL: DR but read it anyway : p

In April I finally completed the DIGITAL version of the game on Playstation 4. This is the version I have had since the game came out back in 2017. The last trophy to pop was of course the Final Chapter silver trophy for playing 1000 matches as Jason. This in turn triggered the platinum trophy.
This is one of the hardest PS4 platinum's to get because of the crazy 1000 matches requirement. I was elated to finally nab it.

After a couple of weeks not playing (having finally got the platinum trophy) I remembered hearing there were some exclusive medium bloody skins for Jason and some exclusive counsellor clothing on the disc version of the game. I checked on ebay and saw the Ultimate Slasher edition (New Copy) complete with poster. It obviously also has all the DLC via a code sheet that comes with the game. I snapped up the disc version at what seemed like a reasonable price.

When I put the disc in IT INSTALLED AS A SEPARATE GAME. This means I had 2 copies of F13 on my PS4 dashboard. The disc version obviously has a disc icon showing which version it is. I loaded the disc version for the first time and noticed IT USES MY DIGITAL COPY SAVE FILE. The good thing is I can still choose the disc exclusive content because it's on the disc version of the game. The disc exclusive content will not work on the digital version though. Regardless of which version you load you will be level 150 with al your perks etc.

I quickly hopped online with the disc version of the game and noticed trophies popping as soon as I did a trophy requirement ONCE. So for example I jumped through one closed window and earned the 100 windows trophy. I hit Jason with 1 baseball bat and earned the trophy you get for hitting him 100 times with a bat! I completed my first match as Counsellor and received both the 500 matches and 1000 matches trophies! I did my first match as Savini Jason using the disc version of the game and received both The Sequel and Final Chapter trophies! I couldn't believe it.

Most of these trophies fell within a week of playing the disc version. I then moved on to other games for quite a while with 6 or 7 trophies left to get. This last month I decided to go for the others that I still needed. The hardest to get this second time around turned out to be Roll Credits (killing Jason as Tommy ) and I'm On a Boat because trying to get a random to drive the boat you fix to safety takes a lot of trial and error as well as a Jason that's rubbish in the water.

All of my second set of trophies including the second platinum were achieved in quickplay lobbies using the disc version of the game exclusively. If I had tried to get these trophies for the second time using the digital version of the game it wouldn't have worked. This is because the game save file and whatever makes the trophies pop on the two versions of the game are somewhat independent of each other.

Of course you could try and platinum the game again on another psn ID but I thought it was a unique thing to have the same game platinumed twice under one ID, especially when getting the second one is so easy to do after the struggle first time around. The biggest issue now is the lack of dedicated servers so it is bound to take players longer to grab many of the trophies in the game.

And so that's it the "too long didn't read" true story of how I got 2 platinum trophies for Friday the 13th The Game on Playstation 4 on one PSN user ID. I thought this might be of interest to big fans of the game and also trophy hunters in general. Like I said I expect this will work on Xbox as well. Perhaps an Xbox player could let me know if they give it a go!
