What is PlayStation Plus Essential?

Essential is the base PlayStation Plus tier. It gives you online multiplayer on PS4 and PS5, a rotating set of monthly games you keep while subscribed, 100 GB of cloud storage, and exclusive store discounts. It is the cheapest way into the PS Plus family.

What is the difference between Essential, Extra, and Premium?

Essential covers online play and monthly games. Extra adds a large catalogue of downloadable PS4 and PS5 titles. Premium adds game trials plus a library of classic PS1, PS2, PSP, and streamable PS3 games. Pick the tier that matches how much you want to play.

How much is PS Plus Essential and can I get it cheaper?

Sony sets the monthly and 12 month prices, and paying a year upfront already costs far less per month. You save even more with a discounted prepaid code: choose the duration and take the cheapest store above. Keyshops often beat the official price.

How do you redeem a PS Plus code?

Sign in to your PlayStation account, open the Store, choose Redeem Codes, and enter the 12 digit code. Add the funds or activate the membership and the time is applied to your account. You can redeem from the console or from the PlayStation Store website.

Is cheap PS Plus Essential worth it?

If you play online or want a steady stream of monthly games, Essential is great value, and a discounted code makes it cheaper still. If you also want a big on demand library, compare Extra and Premium before you buy.
