PlayStation’s big Days of Play sale is finally here. It features sizable discounts on games and accessories, particularly on big first-party PS5 titles. But one of the best deals available during the sale, which runs June 2 – 12, is an across-the-board 25% discount on 12-month subscriptions to PlayStation Plus. This PS Plus deal works for new, existing, and returning members, so anyone can take advantage. Let’s dig into the details.
Save 25% Off PS Plus Memberships
As mentioned above, you can save 25% off a 12-year membership to any PlayStation Plus membership of your choosing, be it Essential, Extra, or Premium. Current customers can add a year to their subscription and take advantage of the discount. New and returning customers can load up at the discounted rate as well.
If you’re a lapsed PS Plus member, you might not know that Sony’s subscription service has gotten more features (and more complicated) in recent years. There are now three tiers to the PlayStation Plus subscription service, each of which offers its own batch of features. Thankfully, the 25% discount applies to all three tiers.
The Essential PS Plus tier grants you online multiplayer, cloud storage, exclusive access to discounts, and free monthly games. A year of Essential normally costs $59.99, but this deal brings it down to $44.99.
The Extra tier gives you all that, plus access to Ubisoft+ Classics and hundreds of games in the Game Catalog. A year of Extra normally costs $99.99 for a year, but is now available for $74.99.
Premium, the most expensive tier, gets you everything in the Extra tier, plus game trials, cloud streaming, and access to the Classics Catalog, which features games from previous generations of PlayStation consoles. Premium normally runs $119.99 per year, but is currently on sale for $89.99.
It’s kinda complicated, to be honest, so if you want a deeper understanding of what you get from each tier, check out our big PS Plus explainer article.
