How to claim the free PlayStation Wrap-Up 2024 avatar

To grab the free 30th Anniversary avatar, you need to log into the PlayStation app or your PS4 or PS5 console and navigate to the PlayStation Store.

Then you select the Redeem Code option which is found in the More menu.

When prompted to redeem a code, input one of the following three codes based on your region:

  • 5H8Q-A37B-6DJ6 (Japan)
  • Q237-5LR9-357P (Europe)
  • KHKG-H25M-5757 (US)

You need to put in the code that matches the region of your PlayStation account, as the other two codes won’t work.

When doing it through the app, you may get an error, but make sure to check your profile as the avatar is likely there already.

Players have until January 10, 2025, to check their Wrap-Up and claim the code, and no expiration date has been given for the code itself.
