You all remember The Last Guy right? Well fear not, because now it is getting Trophies and will become all the more attractive for it. Following on from a spate of update news from the US PlayStation Blog (see Killzone 2 and Crash Commando update articles), arrives the news that a patch for The Last Guy will be released at some point today.
Originally released nearly a year ago, The Last Guy is a top-down PS Store download game where you play a hero who has to ward innocent civilians away from invading aliens across 3 different towns (San Francisco, Tokyo and Sydney, all mapped using Google Earth). The latest update will add 15 trophies across the levels.
The news follows on from the recent announcement that The Last Guy has received Trophies in Japan and will also be released over there on BluRay too. No such announcement has been made on a BluRay release in the States or the EU and it remains likely that we will only be able to purchase it from the PS Store.
More downloadable content has also been confirmed for the game, which will be released next month in the USA. The content will include 3 bonus stages and 8 more Trophies. However, it remains to be seen if this will be free or paid content and if Europe will receive the patch tomorrow too. Considering Japan and now the US have the Trophies, it is likely we will be able to start collecting soon.
This is yet another Trophy update which will surely reinvigorate sales of the title and is now part of a long line of games that have been updated in a similar way.
Don’t forget to check the TSA for any further news on the DLC and Trophy patch.

Excellent, I knew there was a reason why I hadn’t played TLG for the last 6 months… :p
My bro finally completed it last week – he’ll be gutted!

i havent the patience or time to be a fully fledged trophy whóre but when this game first came out, to me, it screamed “GIVE ME TROPHIES!”. It just seems that type of game.
It’d make sense that they’re quite zany and original too….
*fingers crossed*
didnt buy before.
may well do now.

I got The Last Guy free of charge from Sony for taking part in a questionnaire.
A great game that deserves add-on that might make other people try it out.

It’s not just San Francisco, Tokyo and Sydney. Berlin, London and loads of other cities are included. I was dead chuffed to find I can actually run past my office on the London map

This is great news. I received the game with the purchase of my PS3-console but didn’t played much with. Maybe now with trophy-support I will play again with it.

Any one know what has happened to the trophy patch??
I checked Last Guy yesterday and before coming to work this morning

Has the trophy list been revealed anywhere?

I still havent seen the patch on my end.
Any ideas what happened to it? is it just for the US this week and the EU get it later down the line?
