How can we help you?

Find detailed information in our FAQ.


Why did I receive a notice that my tournament was canceled?

Tournaments may be called off for a number of reasons: the tournament may not have reached the minimum number of participants listed on the View Details page; the tournament was canceled by the organizer; or, you may have already been participating in another tournament when the new tournament began. Upon cancellation, you will receive a notification that also details the specific reason for a canceled tournament if you expand the message.

How do I find information about a tournament?

On a tournament card, select “View Details” to see prizing, game mode, bracket size, and other information. You can also expand the menu to view the full Tournament Rules at any time.

How do I find tournaments?

Tournaments will always appear in the Game Hub for a title. Navigate to the title icon on the experience switcher and scroll down to the carousel labeled “Upcoming Tournaments” to find tournaments that you are eligible to participate in.

I don’t see any tournaments on my PS5 for any offered games.

Tournaments will not appear on your console if you do not meet certain eligibility requirements such as minimum age or country of residence. Some titles may have additional in-game requirements that you will need to meet. Click here to see the eligibility requirements to compete in PlayStation Tournaments for PS5.
