This glitch has been a real pain since launch. Basically, some players couldn’t unlock the Berserker Trophy even after doing everything the game asked — all the upgrades, all the carnage, and nothing to show for it. Kind of like getting all the keys in Doom 2 only to find out the door doesn’t open. Brutal.

But now, after downloading the latest patch, players are logging back in and bam — trophy unlocked. And for many, that’s the final piece of the Platinum puzzle finally clicking into place. A lot of folks have been chasing that Platinum since the game dropped back on May 15, so this fix? Long overdue. We’re talking 54 days overdue.

And yeah, the community’s been… vocal. Some are just relieved it’s finally resolved, while others aren’t too thrilled it took this long. Especially since the first patch on June 5 was supposed to fix it — spoiler alert: it didn’t.

Even though trophies and achievements don’t affect gameplay, they do mean something to a lot of us. They’re bragging rights, digital high-fives, and a signal that you’ve seen and done it all. So when a Platinum finally pops — not after a boss fight or final mission, but just from launching the game post-patch — it kind of kills the vibe. Like skipping the credits of your favorite movie and just reading the synopsis.

Still, it’s fixed. And for completionists who’ve been holding out, it’s finally time to wrap this chapter of Doom: The Dark Ages with that Platinum shine.

If you’re on PS5 and haven’t updated yet, now’s the time. Get that trophy. You’ve earned it.
