PS4: 15 Hardest Platinum Trophies Nobody Unlocked

10. Trophy Hunter - Shadow Warrior

Shadow Warrior was one of the best games of 2013 that just about nobody played. Absolutely nailing that sense of fast-paced, next-gen, demon-killing mayhem before DOOM did the same thing in 2016, this underrated reboot threw away most of the conventions that define modern first-person shooters, opting instead to take influence from its twitchy, score-based arcade roots.

So it made sense that the game's trophies were just as arcady and difficult to unlock. While the wealth of collectibles hidden in the title's wide-open levels can be frustrating to find without the help of a guide, you're not going to be able to rely on anything but your well-honed skills to get you through the game's hardest difficulty.

With no checkpoints or save system, the already difficult game is rendered virtually impossible on Heroic mode, where enemies hit harder, have more health and want nothing more than to surround you and tear you apart. And when one dumb mistake can send you right back to the start of the level, you better hope you've got what it takes to blow through these enemies as quickly as possible.
