According to a PS user report, on January 25, for unknown reasons, the PS4 game trophy logo disappeared from the PS console. Whether viewed on the PS phone app or PS5, they are gone and no one knows why.
Also missing are the PS4 game titles, which were briefly replaced by the PS3 logo. Twitter user NextGenPlayer reported: PS4 trophies disappeared, for many people they were showing as PS3 games. Another Twitter user Sirrog85 then shared an image in the comments section confirming the claim, As you can see in Sirrog85’s picture, some of the game’s trophies are no longer available, and the game’s name has been replaced by the PS3 logo.

This issue has now been fixed, and we don’t yet know why this is happening. Players have speculated that this has something to do with PS5 backward compatibility with PS3, and some players even think it has something to do with Sony’s rumored game subscription service Project Spartacus.
This is not the first time that the PS5 is suspected to be backward compatible with the PS3. Previously, PS5 users found PS3 games with prices in the PS Store, and generally only PS NOW users can use them. PS3 games have a price that may mean they will be sold separately.
At present, Sony has not officially announced the news about PS5 backward compatibility with PS3, and Sony’s game subscription service “Project Spartacus” is also an unconfirmed rumor.
