E3 2011: Free items for PS Home users

PlayStation Home users can now receive 100 free items as part of Sony’s Welcome Back program.

Today we will begin rolling out the first phase of this customer appreciation program, which will include 100 free items, two personal spaces, and an exclusive game available for all users to download for 30 days,” said a PlayStation Home community manager on the PlayStation Blog.

A free virtual items package will be available from today in the Central Plaza, and includes clothing and furniture items from Sony and its partners.

The new spaces include The Dragon’s Lair and the Mansion Garage, and an interstellar casino that will be published later this month.

As part of the Welcome Back programme, Sony has offered PSN users free PS3 and PSP games, as well as 30 days free subscription to their PlayStation Plus service, and a further 60 days for existing Plus subscribers.
