Sony's PlayStationStars Program to Undergo Important Adjustments

TapTechNews August 25th news, Sony's PlayStationStars program is a free loyalty program that allows players to earn points, purchase products and unlock collectibles by purchasing and playing PlayStation games. These collectibles are game-themed digital items that can showcase players' preferences and achievements.

Officials announced the day before yesterday that the program will迎来 important adjustments on October 24, 2024 and March 1, 2025. TapTechNews sorts out the main changes as follows:

Adjustment of points validity period: Starting from October 24, 2024, the new points obtained by players will expire at the end of the 12th month (end of month) after obtaining them, and the existing points of players will expire at the end of the 24th month (end of month).

Purchase eligibility change: Starting from March 1, 2025, the subscription fees (including renewals) paid by players through the PlayStation store will no longer earn points.

However, TapTechNews noticed that after the relevant changes were announced, it caused many players on platforms such as Reddit to question. Players believe that Sony's related actions will dampen the player loyalty of PlayStationStars, and it will be more difficult for players to accumulate the target points for redemption.
