New PS4 Tournaments feature iconic fighting, FPS, and sports games

As we look back at the past year, we’re grateful for the growth of our competitive gaming community and excited for what lies ahead. Over the next two months, we will offer a collection of new competitive programs for PlayStation Tournaments featuring new opportunities to watch, learn, and play

A Look Back at PS4 Tournaments in 2021

Last year was our most eventful and competition-filled year so far. PlayStation players walked away with more than $5 million in prizes across more than 8,000 tournaments. We also saw more than 500,000 participants  take home a prize from our competitions — a number that we’re aiming to beat in 2022. 

We were excited to recently introduce Flash Round tournaments. These are fast-paced competitions with no brackets or eliminations. With each round lasting no longer than a single match, players can compete in multiple Flash Rounds to rack up as many wins as possible and secure larger prizes at the end of the tournament. You can sign up for Flash Rounds in FIFA 22 or NBA 2K22 either on the Competition Center or on a PS4 console*.

Upcoming Programs On PS4

Across our upcoming competitions, players can expect less waiting between playtime, new formats, expanded prize pools, and more chances to win prizes — including PlayStation-themed avatars and PS4 themes just for participating. Here’s a look at some new and upcoming programs arriving on PlayStation Tournaments, with many more to come. 

Sign up for PlayStation Tournaments at compete.playstation.com or head over to the Events tab on PS4. 

  • Apex Legends Master Circuit: Our Apex Legends Master Circuit is an epic eight-week competition offering players a chance to win a share of $10,000 in cash prizes and a PS5 console. The Circuit ends with a massive Final, which you can reach by winning points in weekly Qualifiers or joining bi-weekly two-day mini-tournaments called Slay Days. The top players and teams across the Qualifiers and Slay Days will get a chance to face off in the finals for the grand prize. 

Season 1 will take place in North America and Europe from May 16 to July 15**. 

  • Rainbow Six Siege Open Series: You can sign up for the Rainbow Six Siege: Open Series for a chance to become a champion. It’s a great opportunity to connect with other competitors and keep improving your game. We’re updating the series with a player-friendly upgrade that includes bigger prize pools, more opportunity to win prizes, and a quicker experience. 

The new Rainbow Six Siege Open Series updates are now live and tournaments are available every month across North America, Europe, Latin America, Asia-Pacific, Australia & New Zealand, and the Middle East.
