Sony is raising PlayStation Plus prices by up to 35% | VGC
12-month subscription plans for all three tiers will rise in September…
www.videogameschronicle.comHere’s the latest I can share based on recent reports:
-
PlayStation Plus Premium price in the US has seen yearly increases in the past, with Premium moving from around $120 per year to higher levels in some cycles, and similar percentage hikes in other regions. Note that exact current pricing can vary by country and by whether you’re looking at Essential, Extra, or Premium tiers.[1][3]
-
In several rounds of price updates, Sony has raised the annual cost for Premium (and sometimes the other tiers) by roughly 30–35% in major markets, with monthly prices also adjusted accordingly in some regions. If you’re planning a renewal, your next anniversary date is typically when the new pricing takes effect (or immediately if you’re upgrading/downgrading).[3][5][1]
-
For the most precise figure in your location (Grapevine, Texas, USA), I recommend checking the official PlayStation Plus page for the current price in USD and your local tax rate, since regional pricing can differ and promotions or bundles may apply.[4]
Illustration: A quick sanity check
- Essential yearly: historically around $59.99 → often up to about $79.99 in updates
- Extra yearly: historically around $99.99 → often up to about $134.99
- Premium yearly: historically around $119.99 → often up to about $159.99 These ranges reflect past update patterns and are provided for context; your exact current price should be confirmed via Sony’s site or your account billing section.[5][1][3]
Would you like me to pull the current US prices from Sony’s official page and provide a precise, up-to-date quote for the three tiers? If so, I can fetch those specifics and include the exact figures and renewal dates.[4]
