Sony Says It Will Continue Adjusting PS Plus Price as Players Choose Higher Tiers

Sony Interactive Entertainment has confirmed that PlayStation Plus pricing will continue to see adjustments, meaning there might be a price increase to the PlayStation Plus subscription, due to more players upgrading to the Extra and Premium tiers. CEO Hideaki Nishino shared in a recent Sony business segment meeting that 38% of subscribers now choose higher tiers.

In FY22, the percentage of PS Plus subscribers on Premium and Extra was 17% and 13%, respectively. By FY24, that had grown to 22% and 16%, totaling 38%. Sony notes that this is even after a global price increase, where in September of 2023, yearly prices went up by 35% in some regions.
