PlayStation Plus, the subscription service for PlayStation players has provided them with a set of games and exclusive discounts each month, since a long time, but that is about to change. Now to battle with their biggest competitor, Xbox, and their subscription service, Xbox Game Pass, PlayStation has added new offerings and tiers for its subscription service.
This new plan is being executed by merging their two main subscriptions, PlayStation Plus and PlayStation Now, post that PlayStation Now will cease to exist and instead players will receive 3 new PlayStation Plus tiers. The first tier is called PlayStation Plus Essential, which is basically the original PlayStation Plus service. The main development comes in the two new tiers that are PlayStation Plus Extra and PlayStation Plus Premium.
The two new tiers is where all the goodness lies, through them the players will be able to access a gigantic catalog of games through their console. PlayStation Plus Extra will consist of 400 of the best PS4 and PS5 games and PlayStation Premium will add another 340 games to the list with classic titles from PS3, PS2 and PSP through cloud streaming services.
This comes as exciting news for the players as they have been waiting to play some iconic titles from the previous era again.
