It’s been long-awaited but PlayStation has announced that a new PlayStation overlay as well as trophies are coming to the PC starting with Ghost of Tsushima: Director’s Cut that launches on May 16th.
The new PlayStation Overlay will pull up with Shift + F1 and show you your friends list, trophies, settings and your profile.
In bigger news, it’s been confirmed that PlayStation Trophies are coming to the PC with games sharing the same trophy list as they do on consoles. It’s unclear with the way that it’s written whether it’s a shared trophy list between PC and PlayStation but it definitely seems that way.
It’s also unclear if the new PlayStation overlay will roll out to a wider array of games on PC or just future PlayStation games that make the jump to PC.
You can read the full description about the new PlayStation features coming to PC from the PlayStation Blog below:
“Ghost of Tsushima Director’s Cut is the first PlayStation title on PC that uses a new PlayStation overlay, which includes your Friends list, Trophies, Settings, and your Profile. This feature is available on Windows PCs and will be accessible from the in-game menu or, for keyboard players, by pressing the “SHIFT +F1” shortcut on your keyboard.
While playing the game, you can earn PlayStation Trophies just like on PlayStation consoles. Ghost of Tsushima Director’s Cut on PC shares the same Trophy set as the game on PlayStation 5 consoles*. In addition, the PC version also has full support for Achievements on Steam and the Epic Games Store.”
