The new, more robust (and more complicated) PlayStation Plus is officially out in North America as of Monday. Sony’s new version of its subscription service now offers three tiers: Essential, Extra, and Premium.
If you’re unfamiliar with Sony’s new subscription service play, you may be wondering: Is this PlayStation’s version of Xbox’s Game Pass? No, and, well, sort of. The higher-priced tiers do offer a catalog of new and classic games for subscribers, much like Xbox’s service. However, Sony has said it doesn’t plan to add new, first-party releases to PlayStation Plus the day they come out - a major Game Pass perk. The PlayStation Plus Essential tier is the version of PS Plus that’s existed for years. Subscribers will get access to monthly games, multiplayer access, discounts, exclusive content, cloud storage, share play, the PlayStation Plus Collection, game help, and free shipping from PlayStation. As it has been, a month will run players $9.99, a year is $59.99.
The PlayStation Plus Extra tier ($14.99 monthly/$99.99 yearly) is the enhanced version of the Essential tier. It comes with all the Essential features and only adds a game catalog of 400 first and third-party PlayStation 4 and PlayStation 5 titles that subscribers can access - although selections will likely rotate in and out as the months go by.
The PlayStation Plus Premium tier ($17.99 monthly/$119.99 yearly) is the most enhanced version of PlayStation Plus and the most expensive. It comes with all the features in both Essential and Extra. It also adds a classic catalog of PlayStation, PlayStation 2, and PlayStation Portable games, game trials for certain titles, and PlayStation 3 cloud streaming games.
As for the classic games emulation, American players are getting a better deal than other regions. When PlayStation started rolling out Premium in Asian territories a few months ago, its classic emulators were running the 50 Hz PAL versions of the game. However, in North America the titles are reportedly running the 60 Hz versions - which, practically speaking, means they’ll run faster for American players.

[@grizzlybearking1878]

Agreed! It sucks. I do think I have an idea why, they are taking a page out of other subscription models. Netflix for example gives you everything at once and others give you an episode or 2 and you have to stay for the rest. Hence why they have lesser fluctuating subs than netflix. I'd bet they are holding on to a lot and want to drip feed it into the service monthly instead of blowing their load and having nothing show up for years in the retro catalog like with ps now.

It'd be nice, but it's virtually impossible due to the PS3's needlessly complicated Emotion engine CPU architecture. At least 2 PS3 emulators have been in development for over a decade, and even still, the vast majority of the PS3 library is completely unplayable on even the most powerful PC hardware. The PS5 wouldn't stand a chance, and the PS4 even less so. Maybe you'll get that on the PS6.

Often with older games visuals arent the issue for me but controls and fps are so a way to make games on the service run better and be worth going back to would help.

Not going to happen, sadly. Microsoft has been supporting emulation for the better part of two decades. Sony last year was crapping on people for even wanting backwards compatibility. Now they're selling low effort BC behind a premium paywall. They're not going to build a team to update old titles like Microsoft did on the Xbox. Just is what it is. People should probably feel lucky Sony is offering it at all. Even if they are charging for it.

so the issue with the ps3 streaming and why they are still doing it instead of emulating is that Sony shot itself it it own foot. They over engineered the cell processor and its too unique. The ps4's that came out that emulated ps3 had a special chip to allow emulating the ps3 games. They litterally cant figure out how to emulate their own system through software only on x86 architecture. They are actually employing people to figure it out. so might be downloadable at some point in the future.

I think part of the reason that Sony dosen't seem to be putting maximum effort into the ps+ revamp is because it isn't the main focus of their buisness model.

Even though Xbox consoles are still being made, Microsoft's entire buisness model when it comes to Xbox is centered around gamepass.

imma stay at the lowest tier I already own so many games I have not played and I beem doing a good job playing them. I just finish DMC 5 I'm working on Final Fantasy 7 now. I didn't own a PS3 and I hate that I can't download the games. If I could I would upgrade. I'm glad you can buy some of the games. Great outtake on the new subscription.

[@chrischupp9760]

Just the review I wanted to see

[@shirtsgames5736]

I'm probably going to start with the Extra tier when it goes live in Europe next week. Plenty of PS4 and PS5 games I haven't tried yet. But I'll be keeping a close eye on the classic game catalogue and will likely move up to that once they have a few more PS1/2/P games in the collection

[@MadSkillz76]

Why would they put all their good stuff on the service now and then have nothing to look forward to down the line? If they released all their great games day one, they would be left with all the games no one wants to play later on.

[@KnucklesWTD]

This makes zero sense,it wouldn’t be possible for someone to beat hundreds of games that fast. It’s simply drip feeding so they can hype you

[@bingobaz6402]

That is just what I did with the Xbox game pass I found I only played 3 games, snow runner, perfect dark on rare replay and destroy all humans, I realised it would work out a lot cheaper in the long run just buying the games.

[@johnjackson2349]

I agree, I had 1 year of the old ps now, for the first month I played 5-6 games, month after 1, then nothing for the remainder of the year, I have so much I own in my back catalogue I don't need it

[@obi-wankenobi8446]

I almost did that buuut I'd be paying £7 a month for Xbox Live anyway to play online, so I may as well pay an extra £3 for Game Pass 🤷🏻‍♂️ and I did find they kept adding really nice games to it

[@Michelle_McKenzie]

really? the highest Tier for ps is $130 a year. I buy normally 1-2 games a year. at $70 a pop (what I just paid for Horizon) that's equal to the $60 ps plus and the $70 game. so I think it's cheaper for me. like I wanted Ghost of Tsunami and AC but didn't want to pay the money. now I can play them!!

[@johnjackson2349]

@@Michelle_McKenzie I have to be a little more careful with my cash as kids take a large chunk lol, for example the last full price game I bought was gt7 for £65, I then completed all the content in around a month and sold it for 45, the exact price for elden ring. I'm looking at getting horizon 2nd hand I've seen it for £20 but got snapped up in a couple hours at that price

[@mazox74]

As a later adopter of the ps4, the extra option has some good value for me now and further down the road. I might go premium tier here and there but not a constant sub or anything. When I do eventually get a ps5 there will be even more added value for me.

[@Abitofeverything4]

[@richardhull7972]

As someone who has subscribed to ps now for a long time atleast 80% of the games were already on the network with exception to a few more ps5 games! Its a good price/deal but it's a rebranding rather than a new system

[@maineman5757]

Way back when gamepass was announced I said this would happen. Even when Sony said they weren't planning then I knew they they would be eventually. The writing was on the wall a long time ago. I'm more curious if steam offers some kind of subscription service in the future.

[@hugoboss917]

Subscription style gaming will eventually kill the aaa, hard-core gaming. Netflix shows are subpar budget fillers

Yeah no. Steam doing this will never happen, and besides, I’m not sure it even makes since with PC’s Xbox GamePass.

I'll take the middle tier but its not released until June 23 in the UK

[@marioherrador8897]

I'm surprised most people don't know that the PS3 is one of the hardest consoles to emulate because of the processor that they used back then. That's the reason why Sony is doing streaming for PS3 instead of actual emulation.

@@TrevorDans just one problem. All Xbox is good for is game pass. This service by Sony is a simple add on. The game pass model doesn’t encourage any form of ownership. Xbox players don’t buy games. Hints reason Microsoft is picking up the tab in till they can make money off game pass.

[@TrevorDans]

@@massiveman44 “doesn’t encourage game ownership” except it does. If you like the game on Game Pass and want to keep it, it is available to buy at a discounted rate. The mental gymnastics you have to do in order to praise Sony but slam Xbox for a chargeable service which is worse than Game Pass is hilarious. You lot attach far too much of your personality to a corporate plastic machine. That’s why most of you look like Dreamcast Guy.

[@enriquepinero707]

I don't care how good the internet is in the future, how well they claim the service is or even if the games are tiny in file size; streaming games will never be preferable to running them natively off your console digitally or physically. These companies needs stop trying to progress this idea and simply keep things simple. If people want to play games cheaper; then wait for sales as games can and do become dirt cheap after a while. I don't mind the existence of these service but NEVER as a substitution for giving us the option to buy and own what ever games we wish.

[@dragonsage3812]

Thanks for sharing this info with us. Seems like they definitely nailed everything except the performance of PS3 games. Hopefully later down the road they do add more titles and possibly the ability to download PS3 games. Honestly the fact that even older PS1 games can run at 60 hz is very impressive. By contrast On Xbox certain titles I’ve played have issues with FPS boost.

Agree totally with buying the classics individually. Perhaps the service can become better all depends on what they add in the future but for now I'm also staying on the standard ps plus service.

What is interesting about Sony's strategy with Plus, is they haven't committed to ANYTHING other than a game or two per month. This means they can compete with similar services without painting themselves into a corner that will be nigh impossible to reverse.

No there not competing by only adding one game a month. Let say its a few months have gone and u played all the games u want and want a new game to play and they drop Mars horizon or something and u don't like that game. And other as well and they have nothing to play and unsubscibe in the millions which hurts ps plus in the long term as many devs don't see it as a viable solution financial for them to put there games as there less people who would eventually buy there games.
