Introducing PlayStation Stars – An all new loyalty program

From PS Blog: "Throughout our company’s 27-year history, we have been continually moved by how meaningful gaming experiences can create fond, lifelong memories for players. All of us at PlayStation take special joy in creating unique products and experiences that delight our fans. This includes everything from our consoles and critically acclaimed games, to community challenges such as Seize the Throne and Treat Codes, to digital and live events including State of Play.

Today, I’m pleased to reveal PlayStation Stars, a brand new loyalty program that celebrates you, the player, for being on this ever growing gaming journey with us. PlayStation Stars will be free to join when it launches later this year. Once you become a member, you’ll earn rewards by completing a variety of campaigns and activities. Our “Monthly Check-In” campaign simply requires you to play any game to receive a reward, while other campaigns require you to win tournaments, earn specific trophies, or even be the first player to platinum a blockbuster title in your local time zone."

Microsoft Rewards is that you?

darthv721412d ago

I use MS rewards to pay for GPU. If PS stars can pay for +, yeah I'll use it too.

@DarthMarvin He means Game Pass Ultimate

VenomCarnage891412d ago

@Marvin
Who cares about the acronym, the way he used it in a sentence was obvious he wasn't talking about "GPU's", it wasn't even plural

himdeel1412d ago

Well Sony has already had rewards for purchases. I regularly claim my PSN gift cards there and have been for years via the app. This is something different to reward people for playing games and achieving milestones.

Microsoft Rewards gives you discounts on top of points when you redeem them. Sony as of late is more likely to charge you the difference of what you're saving lol

willbillbill1412d ago

Any form of competition that benefits the consumer is a good thing

FunAndGun1412d ago

Not paid online gaming.

SoulWarrior1412d ago

Didn't realise MS were the creator of reward schemes.

Vega751412d ago

Enough so that sony decided to copy it 😁

Eonjay1412d ago

There is actually a program called Sony Rewards that goes back even further back.

"Microsoft Rewards is that you?"

Yes, painted in blue. :)

Jokes aside, it´s awesome that Playstation fans are also getting more benefits for their money.

Competition will always bring more awesomeness for us, gamers.

Any kind of rewards based system is that you?

robtion1412d ago

Releasing in phased, regional roll-outs.

Right, well I live in Australia so maybe I won't hold my breath.

Neonridr1413d ago

cool, hopefully this is similar to My Nintendo. Easiest way to earn rewards is to buy games and earn coins.

darthv721413d ago

I like that even physical games give you coins... so long as you redeem before the game has been out a year.

LOGICWINS1412d ago

Hopefully it's nothing like My Nintendo Rewards. With MS Rewards, you don't actually have to buy anything for it to be lucrative.

Outside_ofthe_Box1412d ago

"All PlayStation Stars members will have opportunities to earn loyalty points. Points can be redeemed in a catalog that may include PSN wallet funds and select PlayStation Store products. As an additional benefit, PlayStation Plus members enrolled in PlayStation Stars automatically earn points for purchases on PlayStation Store."

Muigi1413d ago

Haters I see you over there.

BrainSyphoned1412d ago

Hopefully they add in the monthly competitions against friends for trophies as well.

Spiders Studio, Developers of GreedFall: The Dying World, Announce Liquidation of the Company

Spiders: "We're going to cut straight to the chase so you're not left wondering: After a long period without clear answers, we have received confirmation that Spiders is being liquidated.

What does it mean? This means the company as a whole no longer exists. We'll cease our functions immediately. The planned DLC will release via Nacon, and then-- well, that's it.

We're sorry that it's come to this and would like to thank each and every one of you for your support over the years.

If you have any questions or run into issues with your games, please contact Nacon directly as we'll no longer be able to reply."
