PlayStation has officially unveiled a new revamped plan for their subscription service, PlayStation Plus. The service will be divided into three distinct tiers: Essentials Extra and Premium. It will offer a bunch of features, from a library of amazing games to backward compatible titles available for streaming across different tiers.
Originally rumored to be Project Spartacus, the new PlayStation Plus aims to compete with Xbox’s Game Pass and offer a comparable service for the fans of Team Blue. Here's a closer look at each of the three tiers and what they offer.
The most familiar tier of the new PlayStation Plus is Essential. This is basically what PS Plus currently is, two monthly games, cloud storage, and online multiplayer access. It will retain the current price point of PS Plus, and existing members will continue on this tier.
Things get interesting from the next tier onwards with the Extra and Premium plans. Extra costs roughly $5 more than Essential. It brings over 400 PS4 and PS5 games, mainly expanding on the current PS Plus Collection with the addition of more titles like the two Spider-Man titles, Returnal and Death Stranding.
With an increase of another $3, Premium adds in around 340 more games, taking the total number to over 700. These include PS1, PS2, PS3, and PSP titles that PlayStation Plus Premium players will be able to utilize via cloud streaming. Here's a complete breakdown of each of the tiers and the benefits they offer.
