Many people are like the author. Even if they buy various game consoles at home, they only often turn them on and play twice in the first few weeks. Later, they may be left untouched due to being too busy or for various reasons. Sony doesn’t want its own game console to become your ornament, and it plans to launch a reward program called “PlayStation Stars”, hoping to effectively increase player loyalty.
Sony is expected to launch a PlayStation Stars rewards program later this year, just to keep you coming back
When it comes to game console rewards programs, those who use Xbox consoles or Microsoft services are definitely no strangers to Microsoft Rewards, and this program is also very impressive. Microsoft Rewards is a very successful reward program. As long as you keep your Microsoft account logged in, you can get reward points for shopping (up to 20 points for spending 30 yuan, depending on the membership level), and you can spend the points Redeem your desired games, apps and other merchandise, or use your points to buy Xbox Live Gold and other digital products (not just games).
The PlayStation Stars project Sony is working on seems to be inspired by the Microsoft Awards. Points earned can be redeemed by players for a number of rewards, ranging from digital collectibles to funds within their PlayStation wallet. In addition, PlayStation Stars will also provide players with various opportunities and activities to obtain additional points from time to time. If you want to get points, you can complete various tasks and achievements in PlayStation Star. “Digital Collectibles” are a new type of reward that comes with PlayStation Stars, including figurines of popular iconic characters from games and other forms of entertainment, as well as valuable equipment from Sony’s history, with varying levels of rarity Available for players to collect and fight for. 
In addition, there is a minimum threshold that has not been announced to the public. As long as the threshold is exceeded, the reward points can be exchanged for PSN wallet funds, and the points can even be directly exchanged for some PlayStation Store products. It’s unclear what players have to do to receive the reward, but subscribers should earn points for participating in monthly check-ins as long as they complete any game. In the future, Sony may also ask subscribers to complete certain challenges, such as winning certain competitions, earning certain trophies, or being the first in a specified time zone to earn a Platinum trophy in a specified game. PlayStation Plus subscribers also have an added advantage in PlayStation Stars, PS+ members who join PlayStation Stars earn points for every purchase they make in the PSN Store.
PlayStation Stars appears to be the first rewards program launched by PlayStation Network, and at the same time, the rewards program launched by rival Microsoft is already exploring a number of possible ways to increase user loyalty. While PlayStation Stars isn’t live yet, Sony has said it plans to launch the program later in 2022.
