The new PlayStation Plus is now live in Australia. At least on my personal PS5, after going to the PlayStation Plus page, I was told that I was now on PlayStation Plus Essential with the ability to upgrade to PlayStation Plus Extra or PlayStation Plus Deluxe.
The PlayStation Store did a surprisingly good job of telling me exactly how much I’d have to pay to upgrade to Extra or Deluxe for the remainder of my PlayStation Plus subscription (three months for me personally).
As far as I can tell, the games line-up looks to be the same as it was in Japan (we’ll post the full list below), but we’re analysing and will let you know if any updates.
WHAT ARE THE NEW PLAYSTATION PLUS TIERS?
The new PlayStation Plus tiers are explained below:
- PlayStation Plus Essential: No change to the regular PlayStation Plus. You’ll get access to online play as well as two free PS4 games and one free PS5 games every month as well as exclusive discounts
- PlayStation Plus Extra: PlayStation Plus Extra includes the previous Essential tier benefits as well as a catalogue of over 400 downloadable PS4/PS5 games including the likes of Returnal, Ghost of Tsushima, Death Stranding, Marvel’s Guardian’s of the Galaxy, Spider-Man Miles Morales, Stray (when it launches), Demon Souls, Assassin’s Creed Valhalla and more.
- PlayStation Plus Deluxe: PlayStation Plus Deluxe includes the previous Essential/Extra benefits as well as a catalogue of classic PlayStation PS1/PSP/PS2 games including the likes of Ape Escape, Syphon Filter, Resident Evil Director’s Cut and more. These classic games now include different display options, the ability to rewind and some even include trophies. It also includes game trials for titles such as Horizon Forbidden West (five hours) and WWE 2k22.
