(Pocket-lint) – Sony is reportedly slashing the prices of its PlayStation Plus subscription tiers by 25 per cent for Black Friday.
Leaker billbil-kun, who regularly and accurately publishes the PS Plus games offered monthly, claims that PlayStation will offer its various tiers at a quarter of the normal price.
That seems to apply more to the annual fee than the monthly fee, but it’s a great way to ensure you have PS Plus Essential, Extra or Premium for at least 12 months at a reduced price.
He also claims that the discount starts on November 18th and runs until November 28th. Black Friday itself is on November 25th.
The PS5 is finally here – these are the games you just have to get along with it.
If correct, the deal prices will be:
- PlayStation Plus Essential: $44.99 / €44.99 / £37.99 for 12 months (normally $59.99 / €59/€99 / £49.99)
- PlayStation Plus Extra: $74.99 / €74.99 / £62.99 for 12 months (normally $99.99 / €99/€99 / £83.99)
- PlayStation Plus Premium $89.99 / €89.99 / £74.99 for 12 months (normally $119.99 / €119/€99.99)
The various PS Plus tiers offer increasingly extensive benefits, with Extra and Premium granting access to a fast-growing catalog of PS4 and PS5 games. Premium also offers access to cloud games and archive titles from PlayStation’s glorious past.
It’s not yet known if Sony will limit the discounts to its own online stores (in-console) or if you can also get them through select retailers. We’ll keep you up to date.
