Sony Giving PS5 Gamers a Free Gift With a $30 Value

PlayStation 5 players might be receiving a holiday gift from Sony, but not everyone will qualify. Throughout the holiday season, Sony has been offering various perks, including discounts on popular games like ARC Raiders and Battlefield 6, and free avatars for Ghost of Yotei fans. Now, Sony is adding another surprise gift for users of a specific service on the console.

The PlayStation 5 isn’t just for gaming. Like other modern consoles, it also lets you enjoy a wide range of entertainment. You can stream popular TV shows and movies from services like Netflix, Hulu, and Disney+, and even listen to music from Apple Music and Spotify directly on the console. As a special holiday offer, Sony is currently giving PlayStation 5 owners a chance to try Apple Music for free for a limited time.

PS5 Users Can Get Free Apple Music Subscription

PlayStation users can now get three months of Apple Music for free, thanks to a new offer from Sony. To claim it, simply sign in to Apple Music through your PlayStation console. This deal is available to both new and some returning Apple Music subscribers – likely those who haven’t used the service recently. However, this offer is only for those streaming through the PlayStation 5 and will expire on March 18th.

How to Claim Free PS5 Apple Music Subscription

  • Download and open the Apple Music app on PS5
  • Sign in with your existing Apple account or make a new account
  • Three free months of Apple Music available only to new and “qualified returning” subscribers
  • Available until March 18, 2026

Giving a free Apple Music subscription is a great gift idea for many PlayStation 5 players. With over 100 million songs available, from today’s hits to lesser-known artists, there’s something for everyone. The Apple Music app is built right into the PS5, so players can easily listen to music while gaming and find the perfect soundtrack for any situation. This isn’t the first time Sony and Apple have teamed up – they’ve offered similar free trial promotions in the past.
