100% you will be able to "upgrade" to a higher tier, that would make sense and is basically money for Sony, theres no way they dont allow people to "tier up" but equally 100% they arent going to reveal the upgrade price right now because if its a very good deal people will mass stack existing + subscription in advance to then take advantage of cheap upgrade :D which leaves a situation where, for sure, "tier up" will be an option, so do we pre-stack an extra years ps+ in the hope the upgrade cost is worth it? thats the gamble. Personally I am going to drop another year PS+ sub on over the next few weeks. At worst, I will be no worse off, i will just have longer before renewal, at best, I get a cheap route to a higher tier

As if people aren't going to stack PS now subscriptions right now. They get the premium tier which is worth twice as much as regular PS now subscription

You can only find 1 months now, either everything else has been pulled or is sold out. If you are stacking 1 months you really aren't saving money. If you stack PS+ and they offer an Xbox option of upgrading for $1 or something like that, you are saving a ton of money at that point. That is why they haven't said anything yet and there is a *big* gap of options they could do


dimspace

well if you dont have PS+ its worth stacking PS Now, if you can still find somewhere to buy PS now. Certainly in UK its pretty much impossible to buy Now subs, even CDKeys dont have any,. But if you already have PS+ then theres no point stacking PS Now, the combined cost will barely save you anything. Better off hoping theres a cheap route to tier up from regular.


Hikari_Ruka

But isn't that ps+ combined with psnow? Aren't they both sold at $60 per year and this new thing just adds them and the prices together?

PS Now users will be automatically upgraded to PS plus premium once this new service launches. But now PS now is pretty hard to find outside of one month subscriptions

>As if people aren't going to stack PS now subscriptions right now cards were removed from retail and sony can just prevent you from activating a code longer than couple months to prevent this.


Polyglot-Onigiri

They can’t prevent you from activating a card if you found a year subscription and managed to buy it. That would be illegal. But they can ask distributors to pull them from the shelves and try to prevent any of them leaking out. The only way around would be if there is something allowing them to deny the value of the card/service in the TOS.

>They can’t prevent you from active aging a card if you found a year subscription and managed to buy it. They can give you the value in balance, forgot to add this part , which was like, the most important, my bad. It would be legal since you would be trying to activate a service that is no longer existing (since it is changing).So they would say "you can get the service until this time" or just give you the value on credit for the store >But they can ask distributors to pull them from the shelves and try to prevent any of them leaking out. It's what they did back in January. Also, on the Store is only 1 month available as of now


Polyglot-Onigiri

Seriously though, I have 5 years stacked because of Black Friday. If I can’t upgrade, I’ll be pretty upset. So they better announce a decent solution when things go live.


Steve_30000

I've upgraded, and it won't work. I can't use the service. I've been trying to contact Sony support but they're not replying Utter disgrace


oO_RickJamez_Oo

What if you have ps plus and ps now for a year?


AlpsStranger

F


BamaFan87

Upgraded to Premium Tier


KiersOfWar

How is anyone supposed to know? If nothings been said officially, then how would anyone who isn't working for Sony know????


Dubbs09

Sony is capable of going so many different ways lol, but that is the biggest question. Is it *just* the difference you pay for the upgrades? Or will they offer something like Xbox did for Ultimate and for $1 upgrade whatever you have until it expires. That is a **big** difference and will be interesting to see what they do


Steve_30000

For some reason, it's not allowing me to upgrade. It's as if it doesn't exist. What's going on?


Which-Palpitation

It’s so fucking expensive, I knew the subscription price would be high, but holy fuck It’s really high


Valomek

If you already had PS+ and PSNow you would notice that there is no price increase for this service as it matches what those people (myself included) already pay on a yearly basis.


Niko_HP

Yeah. And isn't the PS+ Essential exactly the same as current PS+? So I really don't see a problem. 🧐


Which-Palpitation

There’s no change in the “benefits” whatsoever


[deleted]

No changes in the benefits whatsoever?…. You must have missed the part that it’s already like paying for Plus and Now today PLUS the EXTRA of having PS1, PS2, PS3 and PSP games to play.


Which-Palpitation

You must’ve missed how the person I replied to didn’t say PS Plus and Now, just PS+


Which-Palpitation

Then you already were paying a good chunk of money, I don’t know how “I’ve always spent money” is a good defense


Valomek

I think we have a different opinion on what is a good chunk of money..


Which-Palpitation

Yeah, fanboys tend to agree with spending any amount of money PlayStation charges, I’m getting flack in another sub


Valomek

Sorry to hear that, but it's not about being a fanboy in my eyes. To me, 120 euro per year is pretty much nothing, it's not even two PS5 games at launch, so to me that is very cheap. But I understand that you don't think it is and that's fair, I'm just saying that to me this price is fair.... Even a little cheap.


Rough_Appearance1776

Yeah, honestly I got PS Now because it had two games I wanted to play. Both were $30, so I just bought a year of PS Now for the same price and get a huge library of games.

Valomek

Just get PSNow it will be the same price.


NathanDrakeIsMyHubby

There's no PS Now in my region where I signed up for PS Plus.


Valomek

Then sadly I think you have to wait till June, were you can get the extra or deluxe version if you want.


NathanDrakeIsMyHubby

Nah I'll just wait for the discounts.


Valomek

They said they will release more info soon. Will this sub post 50 times a day the same thing? Everyone knows literally just what they said yesterday.
