Now that certain PSN services have been restored and you’re once again enjoying online gaming, it seems a good time to confirm what is being offered as part of the Welcome Back programme.
Once we restore PlayStation Store, which will be just a little while longer, you will have the opportunity to claim your Welcome Back gifts. Please note that the Welcome Back programme is only available for those countries with access to PlayStation Store*.
All existing PlayStation Network members will be able to access the following from PlayStation Store*:
Two PS3 games from the following list:
- LittleBigPlanet
- Infamous*
- Wipeout HD/Fury
- Ratchet and Clank: Quest for Booty
- Dead Nation*
For those with PSP accounts, you will also be eligible to download two PSP games from the following list:
- LittleBigPlanet PSP
- ModNation PSP
- Pursuit Force
- Killzone Liberation*
- 30 days free PlayStation Plus membership for non PS Plus subscribers*
- Existing PlayStation Plus subscribers will be given 60 days free subscription.
- For existing Music Unlimited subscribers, you will be given 30 days free subscription.
- We are working on a Welcome Back offer in PlayStation Home and will share that when it is confirmed.
I would like to thank all of the developers and publishers involved in this programme for their support in making this happen. We certainly couldn’t have done it without you.
You will be able to access this content once PlayStation Store comes back online and we are doing everything we can to make that happen as soon as possible.
Thank you for your support and keep checking back on the blog for more information.
- For eligibility for the welcome back programme consumers must be an account holder on 20 April 2011. Specific details about these offers and eligibility requirements will be posted as the services go live. All existing PSN registrants have 30 days from when the welcome back programme goes live to redeem their content.
- For the German market, InFamous and Dead Nation will be replace with Super Stardust HD and Hustle Kings in the selection of PS3 games.
- For the German market, Pursuit Force and Killzone Liberation will be replaced with Everybody’s Golf 2 and Buzz Junior Jungle Party in the selection of PSP games. Killzone Liberation will not offer online gameplay functionality.
- Access to the 30 days free PS Plus subscription is only available for those countries where PS Plus is offered. You will have access to the PS Plus content planned for May for 30 days. Access to the free games and exclusive features finishes at the end of the 30-day subscription period. Anything you buy with exclusive discounts, dynamic themes and premium avatars are yours to keep forever.

Please contact me via email/pm if possible (I’ve never used the forum, and dunno if I get autoemailed). But I was selecting my games, and I chose wipeout/fury. I then exited the PS-store to ponder my 2nd game, and the free-game icon is gone, and I cannot choose my 2nd game. Any help….haha

I down loaded 1 game last night. Was going to take 379 minute to do, so left it going overnight. I tried to get my second game tonight, but not possible. What is going on? Have I been ripped off?

I haven’t look if someone already asked that and I haven’t found any info on that, but if I only choose the games from Welcome Back Program, I have to donwload them imidiatelly or they will be in my Downlaod list even after the Welcome Back program ends? I’m not near my PS3 so I can’t do it now and probably I will download them at the end of the month, so that’s why I ask this question? Will they be still donwloadable for instance next month and after? Thanks!

What happens if the welcome pack expires before we can sign in? I’ve tried everyday for the past 2 weeks.

It’s probably been asked but how do you extend your ps plus account, the options on the 90 day and year subscription have disappeared when I look in the store, I have automatic renewal turned on and money to cover it in my account, will it renew automatically? Don’t want to lose some of the content I’ve got.
