Due to ongoing technical considerations, online support for the User Generated Content (UGC) features in inFAMOUS 2 and inFAMOUS: Festival of Blood on PlayStation 3 will end as of Aug 31st 2026.

After this date, players will no longer be able to access, browse, upload, download, or play UGC missions through the inFAMOUS 2 and inFAMOUS: Festival of Blood online servers. Offline features, including the main campaign, will remain playable.

Update 1: The webpage has been updated and confirms that Festival of Blood is included in the UGC shutdown.

Update 2: UGC has now been shut down.

Official Announcement The PlayStation Store on PS3 is officially closing worldwide in July 2027, and as early as August 2026 in some countries. If you do not purchase “inFAMOUS: Festival of Blood” before the closure, the game will be unobtainable. The same goes for any DLC content for “inFAMOUS” and “inFAMOUS 2”.

After nearly two decades of supporting the PS3 console generation, we wanted to let you know we will be closing the PlayStation Store on PS3, as well as on PS Vita. PlayStation Store on PS3 will close in select markets starting this year, followed by global closures for PS3 and PS Vita next year. That means new content purchases will no longer be possible once the PlayStation Store closes on these devices. To ease the transition, players will still be able to download previously purchased content after the closing date for the foreseeable future.

As the PlayStation Store continues to evolve to support modern commerce systems, including updated payment processing standards, PS3 and PS Vita are no longer able to support these updates at the level required. As a result, we will need to close PlayStation Store on these devices in the timeframes as follows:

  • Mexico, Honduras, Nicaragua – PlayStation Store on PS3 will close starting August 2026.

  • Additional Latin American and Middle Eastern countries – PlayStation Store on PS3 will close starting late 2026.

  • In all other countries, PlayStation Store on PS3 and PS Vita will close in July 2027.

Discussion - General If the Infamous series (including the comics) were to be adapted as a Show right now, would you watch it?

Recently read the comics and they are really good, I won't get into details in case someone hasn't read them yet (and I highly recommend you do if you're an Infamous fan) but they serve as an excellent bridge proceeding the events of Infamous 1. This got me thinking about if Infamous were to end up becoming a show to introduce people to the older games of the series in the Modern Age

So my question is this, if they were to end up adapting Infamous into a show, would you support it? Would you watch it? And if so, what would you want it to be like?

Discussion - General So we all replay the game alot yeah?

Upvotes

Question is, do you remember HOW many times you've replayed the games? Because I have. I replayed inFAMOUS 1 and 2 about 35 times. Replayed Second Son a good 5 times and platinumed it. But I'm still yet to play First Light once.

I'm a huge infamous second son fan, and I love checking the concept and finding pieces that i rarely see.

I found these very interesting early versions of Delsin by concept artist Horia Dociu, you can find a lot of amazing art in his portfolio.

Help - inFAMOUS 2 [Trophy] is it over?

Upvotes

I recently got into infamous due to hearing about the ugc closure and was able to snag those trophies and 100% festival of blood & getting 61% on my first playthrough of a good karma run

But I hit an exp deadzone, I idiotically completed all the territories, missions, so on and so on so I have very little exp to get the last amount needed for the level 3 passive powers like blast shard sense while having like 20 or so blast shards left idk what to do

Do I find a blast shard map and just go through the entire map piece by piece and farm what enemies I can and if it isn't enough by the time I get the blast shard trophy just farm it during my evil playthrough?

Discussion - General I brought back the UGC Servers and made a user-friendly UI for it

​Hey everyone,

I’ve developed a complete, cross-platform application to restore the User-Generated Content (UGC) functionality for inFAMOUS 2 and inFAMOUS: Festival of Blood. All documentation and source code are available on my GitHubYes, this makes the Platinum Trophy earnable again ON A NON-JAILBROKEN PLAYSTATION 3!

If you want to test it yourself, a detailed README is available on the GitHub page.

Project Highlights:

  • User-Friendly UI: No complicated command-line setups, no Docker, no other third-party apps required. It’s a simple desktop app for Windows and macOS.
  • Automated Setup: The Launcher automatically downloads the required mission archives (over 200,000 missions) and configures the local DNS proxy with just a few clicks.
  • Trophy Unlocks: Fully restores the ability to play UGC missions and pop the associated unobtainable trophies.

If you care about leaderboards on PSNProfiles, CRITICAL WARNING:

This method is NOT yet approved by the PSNProfiles Rules Team. Earning the UGC trophies using this custom server right now will likely result in a flag and a ban from the PSNProfiles leaderboards. If you want to test the server, please strictly use an alternate PSN account until the staff makes an official ruling.

How you can help make it official? 

To get this method whitelisted by the PSNProfiles CRT, we need visibility, testing, and community backing. If you want to see these platinum trophies officially obtainable again for everyone:

  • Advocate in this post: Leave a comment below. Discuss your test results, show your support, and help bring this to the attention of the PSNP staff.
  • Star the GitHub Repo: Check out the repository and leave a ⭐ to show the moderators that there is massive demand for this fix.

Let's bring these games back to life together!

Cheers, Adam Stark

Discussion - inFAMOUS 1 I'm playing the infamous saga... and i have mixed feelings on the first game. Spoiler

Upvotes

ok so now i'm playing infamous 2 and I'M LOVING IT. and i'm loving it because it doesn't have many of the things i hated of the first game.

unfair enemies, weird combat system, etc.
BUT WHAT I WANNA KNOW, is if someone else felt the story fell off on the final arc? LIKE, the first half of the game i felt amazing, it was like if chronicle was a videogame I LOVED IT. but then after zeke got the sphere... it fell... hard.
EVERYTHING HAPPENED SO FAST THAT I BARELY HAD ANY TIME TO PROCESS IT. PUM zeke betrayal, PUM alden fight, but you can't kill him even if he was annoying af, PUM now trish gets slimed, PUM now to speed run the search for the sphere, PUM NOW A FUCKING FULL SCALE WAR ON EMPIRE CITY WHERE THE SONS AND COLE WITH JOHN COMMIT WAR CRIMES, PUM WE FIND THE SPHERE SURPRISINGLY EASY (amazing how was more difficult to defend trish's truck than getting the MAIN THING OF ALL THE GAME), PUM JOHN GETS SLIMED BY THE SPHERE, AND IN THE END YOU GOTTA BELIEVE KESSLER WAS COLE AND THAT HE CAN JUST... BLIP TO THE PAST???

yeah i mean, i can understand why the game was so successful back then and MAYBE the story was mindblowing back then, but now... is... interesting. THO the gameplay is amazing, i loved the parkour, the powers were fun, tho it was unfair af that the enemies had aimbot, but meh. what do you think? you also think infamous 1 story is rushed in the end?

Discussion - Second Son Some unused concepts for second son . Spoiler

Thumbnail gallery
Upvotes

Found some unused concept art for inFAMOUS Second Son, and it’s honestly crazy seeing how different the game could’ve been. There were powers we never got, like Glass and Copper, and they seem completely different from each other. Copper especially looks super interesting—the concepts make it seem like it could’ve had some really unique abilities and visuals. I remember hearing about these powers after Second Son came out, when people were talking about possible DLC, and I thought they sounded kind of lame. But after actually seeing the concepts, they look so fire.
Seattle also seems like it was originally going to be more futuristic and much more developed around the different powers. What’s crazy is how much of the city looks like it would’ve been completely terraformed by Concrete. Instead of Concrete just being something the DUP uses, it looks like Augustine’s power could’ve physically reshaped huge parts of Seattle. That would’ve made the city itself feel like a reflection of how powerful she was.
One of the biggest things that stood out to me was Augustine’s original boss fight. It looks like she could’ve fought you in the sky while using the entire city as her battlefield. That would’ve done a much better job showing just how powerful she actually was. Her final fight in the game always felt underwhelming to me, especially compared to what they apparently had in mind.
There’s also concept art for what looks like a Glass Conduit, although maybe they called it Crystal at the time. That whole idea looks incredible. It seems like she would’ve had her own territory and unique enemy types too, which is something I think Second Son was missing. There are concepts showing different powers having their own areas of the city, which could’ve made Seattle feel much more varied and alive.
Another interesting thing is Eugene. I’m guessing he might’ve been added later in development because I could barely find anything early on related to Video. Most of the early concepts I found revolve around Smoke, Concrete, Neon, Paper, Glass, and Copper.
Seeing all of this makes me think Second Son had way more potential than what we ended up getting. It feels like the original vision would’ve been much bigger, with more powers, different enemy factions, entire parts of Seattle being transformed by Conduits, longer-range battles, and more depth like inFAMOUS 1 and 2. Even after all these years, I still can’t get over how crazy that original Augustine fight could’ve been.
