Tier                          Original Pricing.       New Pricing
PS Plus Essential	£49.99 / $59.99	£59.99 / $79.99
PS Plus Extra	        £83.99 / $99.99	£99.99 / $134.99
PS Plus Premium	£99.99 / $119.99	£119.99 / $159.99

33+% is quite a hike, considering that Sony doesn’t offer PS+ Day 1 Launches, unlike Xbox. I hope they start offering their games day one, else people will start to unsubscribe.

It’s a bummer, since I like PS+ Extra a lot (don’t get PS+ Premium, it’s not worth it)

Also very scummy of them to hide their pricing update behind the Sept PS+ monthly games blogpost

    I used to own both a Series X, PS5 and have my gaming PC (all in the same room - desktop currently has an i5 13500, RTX 3090 24GB, 4TB of NVME storage & 128GB ram)

    Got myself a 5m hdmi lead capable of driving my 4k/120 TV and just ended up using my pc for everything now.

    I just switch sources between my monitor and tv when I want to game on the couch. Any mouse/keyboard input needed, I do it on the Unified remote app on my phone and fire up Steam big picture on the tv.

    Sold the PS5 and XBOX and ditched two more subscriptions hitting me every month.

    No regrets so far.

      I bought a steam link forever ago and ran an Ethernet cable from my router to it. Works like a charm.
