PlayStation drops rare chance for you to claim free store credit

Despite the rewards scheme coming to an end, PlayStation is giving players another chance to earn some points, which will build towards some tasty store credit.

PlayStation Stars has been a highlight feature for players over the years, with campaigns and purchases offering points which would then build up to free store credit to buy new games with.

Fans are upset over the reward scheme ending, as it was a great way to get extra money off new games.

The scheme is sadly coming to an end on 23 July, with no new campaigns being offered, but that hasn’t stopped the ball rolling altogether.

A new campaign has just dropped, available for all players, not just those subscribed to PlayStation Plus.

This one is for PlayStation Tournaments, and it offers 25 points to players who compete in any PlayStation 5 tournament.

Over on Reddit, fans are offering advice to others on which games to play, so if you’re interested in snagging these points, you have a few options.

“Download EA SPORTS FC 25 SHOWCASE (which is free) and in the game hub select to participate in the tournament. It worked here,” noted ginlen.

“You also might be able to use NBA 2K25,” said another Redditor.

Others are recommending Naraka Bladepoint as a good game to boot up and compete in.

You’ll need to accept the campaign in your PlayStation app before you start up the game, but once you’ve entered and completed the goal, the 25 points will land in your account.

These points will be totalled up within the app, and you can redeem them against PSN store credit.

For example, 1,250 points equals £5 of credit, so if you’ve been collecting points for a while, you could be sitting on a decent chunk of cash.

This is most definitely going to be one of PlayStation Stars' last campaigns so if you're almost at the point of claiming that credit voucher, get yourself over the finish line.
