You probably know that PS4 trophies won’t transfer to the PS5, but do you know if Skyrim trophies will transfer too? The answer to that question depends on your game and your SKU. Some titles are unaffected by the upgrade, while others are affected only by the save game. If you have any other questions about whether your PS4 trophies will transfer or not, feel free to ask us!

Skyrim trophies cannot be transferred
The Anniversary Edition of Skyrim will not let PS4 owners transfer their save data from the previous-gen version of the game to the new version. You will have to unlock the trophies all over again when playing the Anniversary Edition, but achievements will transfer from the PC and Xbox versions of the game. This means that you’ll have to spend a couple of extra hours playing the Anniversary Edition before you’ll be able to transfer your save data over.
If you’ve bought the game before, you might have noticed that trophies for Skyrim can’t be transferred from PS4 to PS5. This is an error with the game’s system and the ‘Save’ feature, as outlined by CDPR. The good news is that this bug doesn’t affect other games, so this is a one-time problem that will go away once the PS5 version is out.
In order to transfer PS4 games to PS5 and vice-versa, you need to make sure that both consoles are on the same network. Then, go into the Control Centre of your PS5 and choose System > System Software> Data Transfer. You’ll be given a time frame to wait for the data to transfer. After the data transfer process is finished, the PS5 will restart and return you to the home screen. You’ll be able to monitor the transfer process in the Downloads / Uploads section of your Control Centre.
Destiny 2 auto-pops trophies
When you transfer your trophies from PS4 to PS5, they will automatically appear on your PS5. The process is slightly different than cross-saving on PC, but it’s still possible. First, you’ll need to make sure that both PS4 and PS5 versions are of the same region. This will ensure that all of your PS4 trophies will transfer without any issues.
If you’ve been playing the PS4 version, you won’t need to worry about transferring your trophies to PS5. Luckily, some titles auto-pop their trophies from PS4 to PS5 automatically. For example, you can play Outriders and Genshin Impact on both systems. You can still play the PS4 version, but you won’t be able to earn platinum until you’ve finished both versions of the game.
There’s a little more work involved. If you’re trying to auto-pop all PS4 trophies from PS5 to PS4 (or vice versa), you should remember that you’ll need to complete a few more side quests on the PS5 version in order to unlock the “Furi Trophy”. This is particularly true for those trophies that require you to do something on your previous PS4 version.
Destiny 2
If you have been playing Destiny 2 on PS4 and PS5, you’ve probably noticed that it has a different trophy system than Xbox One. While Xbox One trophies can be transferred from the PC version to PS4, they cannot be transferred from PS4 to PS5. If you want to complete all Destiny 2 trophies, you’ll need to play on the PS4 version of the game.
There are a couple of ways to get a trophy in Destiny 2. First of all, you can find the Salvage Contractor. You can access him after completing The Embassy. From there, you must complete the missions for him. One of them requires you to find and kill the leader of a rebel outpost. Once you’ve done this, you’ll gain a tag. You’ll need to do this at least four times.
The game’s trophies are divided into three categories. There are story related trophies and accumulative trophies. In addition, you’ll find many different types of collectibles and weapons. A few of these trophies require you to perform multiple actions in a single session. You’ll have to repeat certain actions in order to unlock the corresponding PS4 and PS5 trophies.
