On Tuesday, the gaming giant confirmed what we thought was coming and announced it will be restructuring its subscriptions into three tiers: PlayStation Plus Essential, Extra, and Premium. “When the new PlayStation Plus service launches, PlayStation Now will transition into the new PlayStation Plus offering and will no longer be available as a standalone service,” read PlayStation’s announcement. “PlayStation Now customers will migrate over to PlayStation Plus Premium with no increase to their current subscription fees at launch.” SEE ALSO: 6 things we want from PlayStation’s answer to Xbox Game Pass PlayStation didn’t specify all the games that will be included in the service, but said the game library will be regularly refreshed and on launch will include major titles like Death Stranding, God of War, Marvel’s Spider-Man, Marvel’s Spider-Man: Miles Morales, Mortal Kombat 11, and Returnal. The new PlayStation Plus offerings will be rolled out in a “phased regional approach,” according to the company, with the aim to be fully live by the end of the first half of 2022. Several markets in Asia will launch in June, followed by North America and Europe, then all other countries where PlayStation Plus is offered. The company also said it plans to expand its cloud streaming to more markets, with more details promised for a later date. So, what are the new Playstation Plus tiers? PlayStation Plus and PlayStation Now will be combined into a new PlayStation Plus subscription service across three membership tiers: PlayStation Plus Essential This tier includes what PlayStation Plus members currently get, including two games a month, discounts, cloud storage for saved games, and online multiplayer access. The price will stay the same as what PlayStation Plus members pay now. U.S. $9.99 monthly / $24.99 quarterly / $59.99 yearly Europe €8.99 monthly / €24.99 quarterly / €59.99 yearly UK £6.99 monthly / £19.99 quarterly / £49.99 yearly Japan ¥850 monthly / ¥2,150 quarterly / ¥5,143 yearly PlayStation Plus Extra This comes with everything from the Essential tier above but throws in a catalogue of over 400 PS4 and PS5 games that you can download and play.

You also get cloud streaming access for PlayStation, PS2, PSP and PS4 games (if you’re in a place where PlayStation Now is currently available — so, U.S., Canada, Japan, UK, France, Germany, Belgium, Netherlands, Luxembourg, Austria, Switzerland, Ireland, Spain, Italy, Portugal, Norway, Denmark, Finland, and Sweden.
