Sony has launched PlayStation Stars, its new loyalty program for PlayStation that definitely was not once an NFT thing that they converted over into “normal” digital collectibles. But here we are.
PlayStation Stars does seem a little goofy on its face with these collectibles to earn, but it does provide an actual way to earn money in the form of PSN wallet funds over time. So what’s the deal?
First, there are four tiers of PlayStation Stars that you will move through with more purchases and trophy acquisition. I should also mention PS Stars right now is tracked almost exclusively from the PlayStation mobile app.
- Tier 1 Milestones – Joined the program and started completing “campaigns.”
- Tier 1 Benefits – Digital collectibles through completing campaigns, one celebration collectible.
- Tier 2 Milestones – Bought one full game from the PlayStation Store and earned one uncommon trophy
- Tier 2 Benefits – Level 2 celebration collectible and access to all level 1 collectibles.
- Tier 3 Milestones – Bought two full games from the PlayStation store and earne 32 uncommon trophies (I assume this is retroactive)
- Tier 3 Benefits – Level 3 celebration collectible and a birthday collectible
- Tier 4 Milestones – Bought four full games from the PlayStation Store and earned 128 uncommon trophies
- Tier 4 Benefits – Celebration collectible, all Level 1-3 collectibles and the controversial “chat priority routing” through customer service.
Okay, so through all of that, where’s the money? That’s through a separate points system that operates across all these levels as you move through them. You can amass points in PlayStation Stars in two ways:
- Buying stuff on the PS Store/subscribing to PS Plus
- Completing points-earning campaigns
Campaigns are not like, game campaigns. They are specific objectives given to you through the PlayStation stars app that can be things like playing a game with friends, using new console features and solving puzzles. These will rotate frequently and you will find them in your app.
You can use points to buy more digital collectibles, certain games with points alone, or you can redeem them for PSN Wallet funds, ie. money (that you have to spend on other PlayStation things).
The earning rate for purchases appears to be that for every $500 spent, you would get 5000 points which translates into $20 in PSN store funds. It’s not clear yet how many points these campaigns will give you individtually, though probably not anywhere close to that, and you’d have to farm a lot. But as cashback loyalty programs go, that’s not terrible.
I mean, you might as well, right? It’s free, and if you’re spending money on PlayStation stuff anyway and earning trophies, you might as well hook yourself into Stars for some potential rewards. Again, the whole “digital collectible” thing here is pretty weird and pointless and definitely screams “aborted web3 play” to me, but whatever. The rest seems fine.
