Sony Interactive Entertainment has removed nearly all PS5 games available as rewards from its PlayStation Stars program.
A quick look at the Rewards section on the PlayStation Stars mobile app reveals that the program has removed most PS5 titles. These game could previously have been acquired by redeeming accumulated reward points. Currently, only one remaining PS5 game is still being offered as a reward via the program.
The aforementioned title is Stellar Blade. Chances are that it may also be removed from the program in the days to come, so those who wish to avail the offer and have accumulated a total of 17,500 reward points should do so now. Though, it’s worth mentioning that if you do not have the required number of reward points, you cannot cover the deficit using real money. For example, you’ll either need to have 17,500 points for Stellar Blade or you’ll need to pay $69.99 to purchase the game in its entirety.
As such, we recommend trading reward points for PlayStation Store wallet funds instead, and waiting for a sale to purchase the game on discount. The same goes for the other PS5 titles that are no longer being offered as part of the reward program.
Besides Stellar Blade, the other PS5 titles that were previously being offered as rewards via PlayStation Stars included Helldivers 2 and Rise of the Ronin. If you haven’t yet become a PlayStation Stars member, you’ll need to download the app on your mobile device and register using your PSN account. Once that’s out of the way, you’ll begin receiving reward points for all future purchases. For every dollar spent on PlayStation Store purchases, you will receive 100 reward points. Furthermore, PS Plus members have additional avenues to get up to 150 reward points on a monthly basis by booting up a few games listed in PlayStation Stars campaigns.
