Get ready: Days of Play celebration kicks off on May 29

It’s another exciting year for PlayStation fans with Days of Play 2024 kicking off this week! This year’s Days of Play activities are bigger than ever with challenges, offers on hardware and games, content offerings, and more. 

We started this global tradition seven years ago to celebrate you, our passionate PlayStation community, for your endless support. We are pleased to bring you more reasons to play, with special Days of Play activities appearing across PlayStation Plus, PlayStation Stars, PlayStation Store, PlayStation Gear, and retailers. The Days of Play celebration begins May 29 at 12:01AM through June 12 at 11:59PM local time in each region. 

To mark this special occasion, we’re giving away new avatars to all PlayStation players throughout Days of Play. Starting May 29, players can access avatars that commemorate some of the popular titles that will be offered through PlayStation Plus during Days of Play. You can find them on the PlayStation Plus web page or visit the PlayStation Plus Days of Play page on your PS5 or PS4 console to get the voucher code. These PlayStation Plus avatars are free for all PlayStation players to redeem. Stay tuned for more free avatars during Days of Play. 

Below is an overview of activities to look out for during Days of Play. You can also check the Days of Play 2024 web page regularly starting tomorrow, May 29, for activity updates in your local area.
