Announcing Red Bull Capture Point, an exciting in-game photo competition
The entire PlayStation team could not be more stoked to be officially working with Red Bull, as we partner up to showcase some of the best in-game photography talent in the U.S. Starting today, PlayStation users in the United States can play, capture, and submit in-game photos of select PS4 and PS5 titles to compete to win some spectacular prizes with the launch of Red Bull Capture Point – our brand new competition* aimed at highlighting the creativity of PlayStation gamers. Contestants can submit photos captured from Demon’s Souls, Ghost of Tsushima, God of War, Horizon Zero Dawn and The Last of Us Part II to participate in Red Bull Capture Point.
Submissions will be judged by a panel of experts with the top creators winning a PS5 with accessories, an unlock of a yet-to-be-released PlayStation Studio game upon release, and a chance to win “Best in Show” cash prizes. Once the winners are chosen, these works will be curated into a digital gallery event experience for all to check out (more details coming soon).
For a limited time, participating Walmart and 7-Eleven stores are also offering activation codes that unlock PlayStation Network avatars with the purchase of Red Bull cans**. These avatars feature characters from the select PlayStation titles drawn in a classic cartoon style. Check out the Red Bull Capture Point trailer below!
Ready to get snapping? Below are details on how to submit, along with a link to the official rules to get you started!
Submission Process
From February 1 through May 2, users can take and submit up to 18 in-game photos across five, award-winning PlayStation titles using each title’s in-game photo mode and the Share button. Submissions must be taken directly on console and uploaded to Twitter using the hashtags #RedBullCapturePoint and #Contest hashtags.
Judging
In May, each submission will be curated and judged by a committee of top video game creatives and developers from each of the participating studios.
