Indie gameKeyWehas been recognized asone of the best co-op gamesto release all year. It’s a quirky game that puts players in the role of kiwi birds running a post office, working together to complete various tasks and mini-games. But while the game has been mostly well-received, the PS5 version has suffered from a glitch that made it basically impossible forKeyWeplayers to unlock its Platinum trophy. As of the latest update, this unfortunate problem has been fixed.
The developers ofKeyWehave pushed out a new update for both the PS4 and PS5 versions of the game that addresses a variety of lingering problems with it, including issues with cross-region multiplayer and the Z-39 Soaring Auk collectible. Upon downloading the update,KeyWeplayers should also unlock any trophies that they completed the requirements for but weren’t rewarded, finally making it possible for them to unlock the Platinum.

Besisdes certain trophies simply not unlocking inKeyWe, the other thing keeping PS5 players from 100% completing the game was a game-breaking bug in the Snowball Fight mini-game. TheSnowball Fight mini-game inKeyWewas impossible to playproperly on PS5 prior to the patch, as it simply did not function. Snowball Fight inKeyWenow works on PS5, so gamers on Sony’s new console can jump back in, get a high score, and unlock the Platinum trophy.
KeyWe’s premise of kiwi birds running a post officeis a bizarre one, but its quirky tone should have broad appeal for co-op gamers. In particular,KeyWehas drawn comparisons toOvercooked; the two games don’t necessarily have the same kind of gameplay, but they both breed chaos from having to work cooperatively with another player. Instead of cooking food and delivering orders like inOvercooked, though,KeyWehas players typing out messages and sorting mail.
On paper, that may not sound too hectic, butKeyWehas players on a time limit and sometimes forces them to cooperate perfectly if they want to get a Gold rating. For example, oneKeyWeplayer may need to hold the shift button whlie the other hunts down the correct letter, or both players may have to hit buttons simultaneously to complete a stage. Based on theKeyWereviews, it seems many people found the game to be fun, and it will be interesting to see if it’s able to get a bigger audience now that some of its more glaring issues have been fixed.
KeyWeis out now for PC, PS4, PS5, and Switch.
