Session: Skate Sim: PS4 and PS5 Platinum Guide

Session: Skate Sim

PS4 / PS5

In Session: Skate Sim, the platinum comes down to three jobs: reaching Pro with Manual Catch enabled, recreating historical tricks across three cities and finishing the trick, grind and manual counters. Set Manual Catch before the first quest and keep it on until the trophy unlocks. Historical challenges care about the location and setup of a trick as well as the move itself.

49 base trophies; the verified PS4 and PS5 requirements match.

  • Online: Not required by the base list.
  • Setting: Manual Catch on from the first quest through Pro.
  • Distance: 42 km sliding or grinding, and 21 km of manuals.

Set Manual Catch before starting

Set Manual Catch in the gameplay options before taking the first quest. Practise ollies and kickflips on flat ground so you can time the stick input to catch the board; use a session marker to repeat the same approach. Continue through Shop, Flow, Am and Pro without switching back to automatic catch. If you began with the other setting, do not count on that run qualifying.

  • Keep Manual Catch on through the Pro trophy.

Finish the pro arcs one skater at a time

Missions from skaters such as RIBS MAN, Dane Burman, Daewon Song and Jahmir Brown are separate chains. If an objective sends you to another spot, follow it through before changing cities. When a mission stops registering, reread the trick, stance and landing requirements; repeat with a consistent approach speed until the game recognizes the line.

  • Check individual arc unlocks before assuming Squad goals is complete.

Recreate historical lines city by city

Use the challenge log to compare the tricks you have registered. Build a spot checklist for New York: Pyramid Ledges, Black Hubba, LES Coleman, Highline Bridge and Jerome Banks count toward the city trophy. Repeat for Philadelphia and San Francisco. If a recreation fails, change one variable at a time: approach side, stance, grind direction or the flip out.

  • Mark the trick complete only once it appears in the log.

Build distance with repeatable runs

For 42 km, choose a long rail with a clear approach and set a marker just before the jump. For 21 km in manuals, use a clear straight and hold the stick lightly to balance; this is separate from Manual Catch. Check your counter after a few runs, then stick with the setup that is adding distance in your game.

  • Track manual and grind distance separately.

Finish shop purchases and repetition counters

Build kickflips, heelflips, 50-50s and the other counts during quests and challenges, then alternate longer sessions with short repeatable drills. Track the shop categories separately: 50 DIY objects and 100 customization items. When travelling, enter the apartments in all three cities; loading a map by itself is not a hub visit.

  • Visit the apartments and check both shop purchase categories.

Frequently asked questions

Can I enable Manual Catch just before reaching Pro?

The requirement begins with the first quest. Do the route from the start with the correct setting instead of relying on progress recorded with automatic catch.

Do historical challenges require DLC?

The base list names the three cities and the listed spots. Work on those before counting challenges from add-on maps; do not buy expansions assuming they are required for platinum.

Why did a landed trick fail to appear in the log?

A historical recreation can require a specific spot and direction as well as the named trick. Recreate the approach, read the on-screen text, and adjust stance and exit separately.
