The Trophy icon is nice and big, but its description is obscured because of the way the list is laid out.

Reading a Trophy list right now is a faff, especially if you're trying to Platinum something.

Participants in PS5's firmware beta programme are currently privy to a bunch of exciting changes coming to the console in the near future, and one of the patch notes is Trophy lists being displayed vertically, like all good lists should be.

Here's the official wording from Sony: "When viewing the trophy lists of games, the trophies will now be displayed vertically instead of horizontally?

This is a big change for Trophy hunters.

There's no word on when this firmware update will be released to everyone, but at least we know that Trophy lists will return to normal sometime soon.

It's not the only meaningful change in the beta firmware, either.

Most notable is the ability to install extra SSD storage, and we also know the PS5's UI in general is getting many significant improvements across the board.

Are you relieved to know that Trophies will be displayed vertically once again.

the feature i would like the most is having themes back.

i know ps4 also didn't have those at launch so i hope theu will add them to ps5 later.

@velio84 it's weird actually, the PS5 has messages under game base and trophies on your avatar icon.

Bit of a change and it's not organic when you are used to the PS4.

Not sure if more Disney's issue rather than Sony, but I'd like a fix for the audio sync with Disney+ on the PS5.

Linear PCM through my surround sound is in sync, but just multi stereo on Disney+...

Change the PS5 sound settings to "Dolby" (as most content on D+ is Dolby) and you get surround BUT the sync is ridiculously off.

(Yes i know it's a dead medium! But for those who do have them and to watch in PSVR it would be a nice gesture).

I liked the horizontal trophy list.

The only annoyance I had was it took a Xbox one level of menus to get to the trophy list?

The trophy list appearing vertical is nice .the other nice change is how they have now labeled the games from ps4 version of the game to ps5 and make it easier to choose which version to download.

Not sure if I like the 3d audio out of the TV.

It was a terrible idea to ever go horizontal like that.

Be nice to go back to the clean themes like PS4.

I like seeing what my friends have been up to.

Having 5 water sounds playing all at once and you have to pick the one sound that sounds like it's at "ear level" is distracting - especially when a couple of those sounds are so close in "height" (at least for me).

Might sound harsh but I have a feeling PlayStation's OS development methodology does not scale well across generations which means they start from scratch

3D Sound for sound systems

Miss the option to search for trophy help on YouTube, not many games have the built in help

Forever hoping they let us have the option to sort our trophy list alphabetically

That's good I'm sick of having to go online to compare trophies to a friend just to get a better view of trophy progression

Something else that's desperately needed is getting to the trophies quickly like on PS4, you have to jump through a bunch of hoops to get to see your trophy list

Maybe holding down a button or double tapping the touch pad to show your trophies

I want the PS4 trophy sound back also please

This new sound sounds like a serious downgrade

Like some water got into the speaker or something

If anyone wants the code for it let me know

Shame they're not updating the profile page or adding some sort of activities page to show off trophies again

I wish they would fix the way the main tiles for PS4/PS3 games

Their crammed inside of what looks like its meant to be the new PS5 tiles

The trophies are definitely an area that could be improved, maybe one day we could have an actual trophy case with better trophies for platinum

(like a ratchet figurine for R&C) rather than just a tile and a bland trophy picture
