- A feature for the PS5 will soon no longer be available.
- Previously, you could rate unknown players with awards.
- However, Sony is expected to discontinue the Accolades function in autumn 2022.
A feature of the PS5 is threatened with deactivation because players do not seem to use it often enough. It’s the Accolades system, which allows you to award other players for their behavior after playing online games.
In practice, it has looked like this so far: If you encounter players in online titles who have made a particularly positive impression on you, you can mark them with “Helpful”, “Welcoming” or “Good Sport”.
