Sony PS Plus price hike: here's what you'll have to pay soon
Annual subscriptions for Sony's gaming service are going up by 19% in the UK and a massive 30% in the US
www.t3.comHere’s the latest on PlayStation Plus Premium pricing as of now.
- Global context: Sony has periodically adjusted PlayStation Plus pricing for Premium, Extra, and Essential tiers, with year-long (12-month) plans typically shown as the best value compared to monthly options. Recent known adjustments have raised Premium to higher annual prices in multiple regions, though exact figures depend on currency and territory.[3][7]
- In the US, Premium 12-month pricing has historically moved from around $119.99 to roughly $159.99 in some reports, with Essential and Extra also seeing increases; these changes often take effect at renewal or when upgrading/downgrading, not for existing monthly or 3-month purchases.[5][3]
- In the UK and Europe, similar increases have been reported, with Premium moving from about £99.99 to around £119.99 and €151.99 in affected cycles, again typically applying at renewal or plan changes.[7][3]
- Practical takeaway: If you’re considering an upgrade or renewal soon, expect higher annual prices for Premium in your region, and be aware that current subscribers may see price changes at their next renewal date or when making changes to their plan.[3][7]
Illustrative example (for context only):
- Previously, a yearly Premium could cost around $119.99 / £99.99 / €119.99; post-change figures often place Premium closer to $159.99 / £119.99 / €151.99 on renewal, depending on locale.[3]
