لماذا يهم
Sony is increasing the starting price of one-month and three-month PlayStation Plus subscriptions in select regions, beginning May 20th. This move follows recent price increases for PS5 consoles, which Sony attributed to global economic pressures.
Sony is hiking the starting price of one-month and three-month PlayStation Plus subscriptions in “select regions,” blaming “ongoing market conditions.” Beginning May 20th, 1-month subscriptions will start at $10.99 USD / €9.99 EUR / £7.99 GBP, while 3-month subscriptions will start at $27.99 USD / €27.99 EUR / £21.99 GBP.
In the US, the changes result in a $1 price increase for a one-month Essential tier subscription and a $3 increase for a three-month Essential tier subscription. It’s unclear if other PlayStation Plus tiers will see price hikes as well. PlayStation didn’t immediately reply to a request for comment.
If you are a current subscriber, prices will stay the same for you (except in Turkey and India, according to Sony) unless you change your subscription tier or let your subscription lapse.
The PlayStation Plus price hikes follow two recent price increases for PS5 consoles. Sony said its April PS5 price hike was due to “continued pressures in the global economic landscape.”
