PlayStation Plus: New subscriptions available from June
Available June 22nd,
PS Plus users can customize their subscription.
If you don't want to make a change, you don't have to do anything and keep the PlayStation Plus Essential subscription.
In the Extra and Premium subscription, some of the biggest PlayStation exclusive titles should be playable right from the start, including "Death Stranding", "God of War", "Marvel's Spider-Man", "Marvel's Spider-Man: Miles Morales", " Mortal Kombat 11” and “Returnal”.
However, there is one big difference and disadvantage compared to the Xbox Game Pass: brand new PlayStation exclusive titles - for example "God of War: Ragnarok", which is expected to be released at the end of 2022 - will not be available from day one in the PlayStation Plus subscription.
It is not yet clear whether members can also benefit from exclusive discounts in this case.
