The biggest upgrade may be the chance to join an event, as Sony's tournaments are finally available to play on PS5. It should be easier to find a competition that fits your life with the new focus on shorter tourneys. Multiple brackets will be created by Sony to make sure the duration is kept in check. It's possible to sign up directly from your console, so you won't have to head to another device to start. PS5 activity cards and notifications help you find events, track results, and let you know when it's time to play, as well as a reworked interface that takes advantage of PS5 activity cards and notifications to let you know when it's time to play. Competitions can be found on the home screen of games. If you'd like to do more than just compete, there's a community hub that will host interviews and game sessions. Anyone in an eligible country with a PS Plus membership can join and play in tournaments. There are prizes from in-game currency through to cash. Between December 1st and January 31st, Sony is running a "Win-A-Thon" event that will reward you more in regional tournaments. PS4 owners will be able to get the promo. Microsoft's Xbox Live tournaments are meant to keep you interested and spend money. If you know you can win real world rewards, you might be more likely to buy the latest sports title. Current-gen console owners might be helped by the PS5 expansion.
