PlayStation Plus subscribers surprised with bonus free store credit you can claim now

With the new month comes new campaigns for PlayStation Stars, the rewards program from Sony that offers up points for players to earn.

As the saying goes, “Every Little Helps,” and whether you’re earning a few points or a bumper crop, it all goes towards the goal of earning some free credit on your PlayStation.

Play as the villains in Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League on PS Plus

This month, you can grab some points by simply playing any of the latest PlayStation Plus Essentials titles that are free to claim and keep.

Sony rewards players with anything from 50 points to 500 points for playing these games - it can vary from player to player.

Simply start up the game, and you’ll get a reward batch of points that can be saved up and redeemed against some lovely store credit.

Remember, 500 points get you £5/$5, 1,000 points scores you £10/$10.

The games you can choose from are Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League, Need for Speed: Hot Pursuit Remastered, and The Stanley Parable: Ultra Deluxe.

Some would argue it’s a lacklustre showing this month, particularly with Suicide Squad in the mix, but you can’t win them all.

You’ll have to register for the campaign before you start playing, which you can easily do from your PlayStation app.

The app will show other campaigns running alongside this and also provide a place for you to spend your accumulated points, either on store credit or digital items, like trophies.

While 50 points may not be a lot, it does soon add up while you are buying games - which also rewards points - and playing through random campaigns.

Of course, you can game the system a little and focus on completing lots of campaigns to quickly add to your total.

The PlayStation Stars reward program is only available to PlayStation Plus subscribers.
