PlayStation enthusiasts who usually skip out on the Plus subscription are in for a treat this December. To mark its 30-year milestone, PlayStation is rolling out a complimentary online multiplayer weekend. Whether you’re on a PlayStation 4 or 5, from December 6 to 8, all you need is a decent internet connection and a PSN account to dive into online multiplayer realms without paying a dime.
PlayStation Plus, Sony’s online gaming service for the PS4 and PS5, offers a tiered subscription model. Besides multiplayer access, it delivers numerous perks, including a selection of free games, cloud streaming, and even the chance to enjoy certain PlayStation games on a PC.
In celebration of PlayStation’s journey since its debut in 1994, they’re not stopping at just a free weekend. Alongside this offer, there’s an eSports extravaganza planned during the same weekend. From Mortal Kombat 1 to Tekken 8, Madden NFL 25, and Guilty Gear Strive, a wide array of games will be featured. Players can compete for avatars and in-game rewards, which vary based on the game they participate in.
For avid gamers, there’s also something special on the table: a sweepstakes with 30-month PS Plus subscriptions. Up to 780 players worldwide will get this prized access, with 30 winners per country. Entering is straightforward: simply sign up as a PlayStation Plus Premium member and play any title listed in the Classics Catalog. Current members have it easier – just pick a game from the Classics Catalog, and you’re in the running. This contest will take place from December 10 to 23.
As the year winds down, more gamers are discovering or getting a PS5. It’s the perfect moment to explore PS Plus, especially with the wave of newcomers energizing online play. So, joining now could offer some of the most thrilling gaming experiences as the community grows.
