Recently, we reported on the expansion of the PlayStation Rewards program and the addition of “Quests” for its users to complete to help advance their rank. While this is great news for those of us without the funds to raise their levels with video game purchases, one must still know how to achieve their “Quest”. Fret not as we have the gamer’s guide to success for the first set of PlayStation Rewards Quests.
The list of Quests can be found on the official PlayStation website. To make things easier and less frustrating, we have listed each Quest with detailed instructions to ensure completion the first time around. Don’t worry, we read the fine print so you don’t have to.

While there are obviously some flaws to the system in place, keep in mind that this is a beta phase for PlayStation Plus and GAP members before the US public release of the PlayStation Rewards program.
