2019 was an awesome year for Sony, for PS4, and for gamers on Sony’s systems. Now that it is 2020, Sony is celebrating not just the future, but also the past. Certain gamers are receiving a free theme together with a free avatar as a “thank you” from Sony for their support over the past year.
How to Qualify for the Free Avatars and Theme from Sony
Sony announced the freebies in a blog post titled, “PlayStation 2019 Wrap-Up Looks back at Your 2019 Gaming Year.”
Sony explains, “To make it extra special, we’re giving all eligible PlayStation fans a free dynamic theme and seven avatars to celebrate their gaming achievements in 2019, and reflect their gameplay persona.”
Here are the seven avatars, as quoted from the blog:
Action Hero — for the gamer who lives for the epic moments in action-adventure games
Legendary Warrior — for the gamer who steps up to the challenge in fighting games
Master Explorer — for the gamer who has continually aced that platformer game
Master Strategist — for the gamer who loves solving puzzles in a good strategy game
Speed Demon — for the gamer who leaves their fellow drivers in the dust in a fast-paced driving/racing game
