A limited-time deal allows PS4 and PS5 users to save on 12-month memberships to the higher tiers of PlayStation Plus.
The PlayStation Store is currently offering a significant discount on PlayStation Plus memberships for both PS4 and PS5 users. This is a rare occurrence, as discounts on PlayStation Plus, especially on the PlayStation Store itself, are uncommon. The timing of this sale is particularly interesting, as it follows a 24-hour outage of PlayStation Plus and related services. While it's unclear if the discount is directly related to the outage, the coincidence is noteworthy.
It's important to note that this deal is only available for a limited time and is not available for the base tier, PlayStation Plus Essential. Currently, only the middle tier, PlayStation Plus Extra, and the most expensive tier, PlayStation Plus Premium, are discounted. Furthermore, the discounts only apply to 12-month memberships. A 12-month subscription to PlayStation Plus Extra is now priced at $99.99, down from $134.99, representing a 25 percent discount. Meanwhile, a 12-month subscription to PlayStation Plus Premium is 37 percent off, bringing the price down to $99.99 from $159.99. The duration of this PS Plus sale on PS4 and PS5 is currently unknown. Typically, PlayStation Plus discounts are not offered directly by PlayStation, and usually appear on reseller websites. It's been several months since PlayStation last ran an official discount on PS Plus, so interested PS4 and PS5 users should consider taking advantage of this opportunity as it is likely to be a while before another discount of this magnitude is available. For those unfamiliar with the different tiers of PlayStation Plus, PlayStation Plus Essential is the base tier that provides online access and monthly free games. PlayStation Plus Extra offers access to a vast and growing library of PS4 and PS5 games, in addition to everything included in PlayStation Plus Essential. PlayStation Plus Premium, the most expensive tier, includes all the benefits of PlayStation Plus Extra, plus access to an evolving library of PS3, PS2, PS1, and PSP games.
