PS5 trophy details

• Difficulty: 6/10, Hizzle editorial estimate. Time: UNSURE. Hidden flag: UNSURE.
• Players: Solo route described; online play is not required by this method. Online required: no for the described route; local play can be used for the two-player tasks.
• Roadmap: late phase of Minecraft PS5 Platinum trophy roadmap.

What to do

1. Choose a remote arena far from your base, villagers and important builds. Prepare for the full fight and stay on a difficulty above Peaceful.
2. Arrange four soul sand in an upright T, leaving the spaces beneath both arms clear.
3. Put three wither skeleton skulls across the top. Place the final skull only when ready, then retreat from the spawning blast.

Before you repeat it

Spawning the boss is not killing it. On Bedrock the fight can be destructive; a decorative enclosure near your home is not a safe arena.

Evidence and editions

Mojang's construction explanation and the Wiki agree on four soul blocks and three skulls placed in the world. The chosen route uses soul sand, clear spaces below the arms and a skull placed last. Spawning is separate from killing the boss, and a Java trapping tutorial is not part of this procedure. Stable Bedrock 26.60 notes and recent indexed reports were reviewed November 3, 2026. No in-game test was performed. PS4 players must match their own stack; see Minecraft PS5 vs PS4 trophy differences. Xbox points and Java advancement equivalence are not established by this PS5 record.
