Increase in the price of all three annual tariffs PlayStation Plus up to 35%, many were displeased and wrote that now the subscription no longer makes sense. Others hoped to offer better games when they have to pay more for the service. After all, Sony itself cited the ability to continue providing high-quality games and value-added subscription benefits.
Sony’s commercial director Eric Lempel defended the increase in price in an interview for Barron’s. According to him, they had no choice but to increase the price of PS Plus.
“We want PlayStation Plus to be great. Like almost everything in this world, we had to look at our prices and adapt them to market conditions.” said Lempel, recalling that for 85% of the world, they haven’t touched the price of PS Plus in many years.
When asked about Xbox Game Pass and Microsoft’s strategy of adding first-party titles on release day, which Sony doesn’t, he said the two services are different.

“It depends on what you get on the service in terms of the type of games and the quality of them. I can’t comment on what the competition is doing. But we feel that we offer a great catalog of games as well as other features and services. It’s a very different offering, but one that has resonated with customers. Since the tiers were introduced, we’ve seen a third of service users opt for the two higher tiers, which was more than we expected.”
All PS Plus subscribers can now add to their digital library Farming Simulator 22 (contains Czech subtitles), The Callisto Protocol a Weird West. The more expensive tariffs now include, for example, titles The Dark Pictures Anthology: House of Ashes, Alien: Isolation, Outlast 2, Dead Island Definitive Edition whether Gotham Knights.
