Game company Sony Interactive Entertainment has announced the PlayStation Player Celebration as a part of the Days of Play 2021.
SIE has revealed that PlayStation players will be able to participate in various activities that spans across a few months to celebrate the power of play. This is a special event where it calls on the player community to join together to achieve a shared set of goals and earn exclusive PSN avatars and PS4 themes as rewards.
Registration will start today and will go on until May 31. The first stage will start on May 18. Here are the steps:
1. Sign Up
Register with your PSN Sign-In ID here. Once you sign up, you’re automatically entered into all future Stages of the program.
The event is open to PlayStation 4 and PlayStation 5 users in the following locations: Argentina, Australia, Austria, Belgium, Brazil, Canada, Chile, Czech Republic, Denmark, Finland, France, Germany, Hong Kong, Hungary, Indonesia, Ireland, Japan, Malaysia, Mexico, Netherlands, New Zealand, Norway, Poland, Portugal, Russia, Saudi Arabia, Singapore, Slovakia, South Korea, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, Taiwan, Thailand, UK, and the United States.
2. Start playing on May 18
There are three Stages throughout the event, with the first Stage kicking off on May 18. Each Stage will have the following Community Goals:
Games Goal
● Play PS4/PS5 games — the Community must play a target number of games each week. Every PS4/PS5 game that each entrant plays for at least an hour (across as many sessions as you’d like during the week) will count towards the Games Goal. You’ll earn double points towards the goal if you play games with users on your Friends List (who have also signed up to participate).
Trophies Goal
● Earn Trophies — the Community must earn a target number of Trophies each week. Each entrant can have a maximum of six PS4/PS5 Trophies count towards the Trophies Goal.
Bonus Goal
● If the first set of goals are reached before the end of each Stage, there will be a new set of Bonus Goals the Community can work towards.
3. Earn exclusive PSN Avatars and PS4 Themes
Everyone who signs up before a Stage begins can earn exclusive PSN avatars as well as PS4 dynamic themes (with custom music and icons) when the Community achieves the Games and Trophies Goals for that Stage.
If the Community also achieves the Stage’s Bonus goals, players who signed up prior to the start of that Stage will receive additional PSN avatars.
Finally, if the Community Goals for all Stages are met (excluding the Bonus goals), players who signed up and participated in all three Stages will receive a cumulative prize featuring an exclusive PSN avatar and PS4 theme set!
The rewards will be delivered directly to your PS4 or PS5 via Notifications approximately 1-2 days after each Stage ends. Please note that the PS4 themes will only be downloadable on PS4, and not PS5.
