The holiday season is perfect for catching up with family and indulging in some tasty treats, but it’s not always easy on the budget. Luckily, PlayStation is stepping in to help gamers save a few bucks with a series of offers perfect for this busy season. They’re rolling out everything from free online multiplayer weekends to discounts on movies for PS Plus subscribers.
Mark your calendars for December 6, 2024, because that’s when PlayStation kicks off its free online multiplayer weekend. It’s a golden opportunity for players to dive into the online aspects of their favorite games without spending a dime. This freebie will be available for gamers on both PS5 and PS4 until December 8, 2024.
Coinciding with this, PS5 is firing up several esports tournaments. Players can flex their skills in games like EA Sports FC 25, NBA 2K25, Tekken 8, Mortal Kombat 1, Madden NFL 25, College Football 25, UFC 5, MLB The Show 24, and Guilty Gear Strive. Anyone who owns these titles and meets the qualifications can jump into the competition between December 6 and 8 for a chance to win avatars and other exciting prizes. Signing up is easy for PS5 users through the Game Hub or the in-game PlayStation Tournaments button.
PS Plus subscribers are in for more treats with several ways to save big this holiday. From December 10 to 23, PlayStation is offering a sweepstakes where 30 lucky winners from each participating country could score a 30-month Premium membership. To participate, simply play a game from the Classics Catalog using a Premium membership. Players in countries from Austria to Malaysia, including the US and the UK, are eligible.
But that’s not all. PS Plus members can snag up to 30% off more than 100 movies on Sony Pictures Core from December 3 to 9. Blockbusters like Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse, Uncharted, Gran Turismo, and Ghostbusters: Frozen Empire are part of the lineup. Plus, any purchase of a 12-month PS Plus membership comes with movie credits for the Sony Pictures Core app.
