Sony Ends inFamous 2 UGC Services on PS3 by Aug. 31, 2026, Blocking Platinum Trophy

3 articles · Updated · ixbt.games · Jul 9

Aug. 31, 2026 is the cutoff for inFamous 2 user-generated content services on PlayStation 3, ending players’ ability to access, upload, download or launch custom missions.
Sony cited technical issues for the shutdown, while leaving offline features intact, including the main campaign.
Four trophies depend on online content—creating a mission, finishing 10 and 25 user-created missions, and completing 5 picked through the “Newest” filter—so the Platinum trophy will become unobtainable afterward.
52 days remain for players to earn those achievements before the servers go offline, making this a final deadline for completionists rather than a full game delisting.
