PlayStation's Day of Play are making a return in 2021

PlayStation have announced that their annual celebration, Days of Play is making a return in 2021, with community based challenges and rewards and the usual sale of games and accessories.

In order to compete in the Days of Play events, you need to register and as you play in the various stages, prizes will be unlocked, when the community reach set goals.

There are three Stages throughout the event, with the first Stage kicking off on May 18. Each Stage will have the following Community Goals:

Games Goal

  • Play PS4/PS5 games — the Community must play a target number of games each week. Every PS4/PS5 game that each entrant plays for at least an hour (across as many sessions as you’d like during the week) will count towards the Games Goal. You’ll earn double points towards the goal if you play games with users on your Friends List (who have also signed up to participate).

Trophies Goal

  • Earn Trophies — the Community must earn a target number of Trophies each week. Each entrant can have a maximum of six PS4/PS5 Trophies count towards the Trophies Goal.

Bonus Goal

  • If the first set of goals are reached before the end of each Stage, there will be a new set of Bonus Goals the Community can work towards.
