Sony announced that it’s PlayStation Stars rewards program, initially only accessible through mobile devices, is now discontinuing its operation on both PS5 and PS4 consoles. The complete shutdown will occur in November 2026, however, no new members can join starting from this moment.
As a gamer, I’ve just learned some exciting news straight from the horse’s mouth. In a recent PlayStation Blog post, they’ve shared their plans to redirect their focus. After carefully analyzing what gaming activities resonate most with us players, they aim to channel their energies in that direction. Here are the main points, as outlined in the blog: [insert details from the blog post].
- Starting today, PlayStation Stars will no longer accept new members for this version of the program.
- If members choose to cancel their PlayStation Stars membership starting today, it will not be possible to rejoin this version of the program, and members will lose all earned Points.
- Current PlayStation Stars members can still earn Digital Collectibles, Points and level up their status until July 23, 2025 at 7:59AM PDT | 3:59PM BST | 11:59PM JST. After this date, there will be no new PlayStation Stars Campaigns available, or any additional rewards or status benefits to earn.
- This version of the PlayStation Stars program will fully end on November 2, 2026 and current PlayStation Stars members can continue to redeem Points as long as their Points don’t expire before then.
After registering with the service, users of both PS5 and PS4 consoles had an opportunity to gather digital trophies by accomplishing tasks, showcased on their Profile section. Furthermore, points were accumulated from purchasing digital games via the PlayStation Store, which could be traded for complete games or store credit for the PlayStation Store. Please note that no further rewards will be added to PS Stars after 23rd July of this year.
Previously overlooked, PlayStation (PS) Stars provided occasional rewards through its store credit, making it a pleasant perk. However, these options suddenly vanished from the service last year only to resurface a month later. Notably, the PS Stars program was primarily accessible via the PS mobile app and lacked seamless integration within the console’s user interface (UI).
Sony expressed gratitude towards their gamers for backing PlayStation Stars since its debut in 2022. As they delve into fresh approaches to advance their rewards program, they will persist in honoring their player base through a variety of community events they’ve scheduled ahead.
It’s important to note that Sony isn’t the sole company to discontinue its rewards system; Nintendo has also done so by closing its Gold Points program in preparation for the release of Switch 2.
