Beware, if you upgrade to the new PS Plus you will lose the offers of the current subscription

The nuevo PlayStation Plus landed in Asian countries (except Japan) on Monday, May 23. The experiences of the players PS5 y PS4 in those regions are serving users from the rest of the world to get an idea of ​​what the subscription service will be like before it reaches their territories (in Spain will be June 23). Keep in mind that the catalog and the details of the service may be different from one country to another. In other words, the problem that we address in this news with the upgrade from PlayStation Plus Essential (the current one) to PS Plus Extra or Premium Hong Kong users are encountering may not be the same elsewhere.

The situation is explained by the user adnyppbb in the subreddit dedicated to the subscription of Sony, they report from my box. Take the following example: a player buys One year of PlayStation Plus with a 25% discount (a promotion carried out regularly by Sony); instead of 60 page 45. That subscription will automatically convert to PS Plus Essential. If you want to level up up to PS Plus Extra, which costs 100 a year, not pay 40 euros difference, but 55 . That is, the offer with which you purchased your current subscription evaporates.

Also, there is one more asterisk to keep in mind. It can’t be done upgrade from Essential to Extra or Premium for the time the player chooses, but for tall currently active subscription. If a user collected PS Plus codes before they prevent the accumulation of months and you have three years of PS Plus Essential, you will have to upgrade all that period to Extra or Premium, and of course, pay the difference.

That yes, it is necessary to take into account that those who have active PlayStation Now subscriptions they won’t have to deal with this upgrade process. If a player has a year of PS Now on their PlayStation Store account, that subscription will be Automatically convert to PlayStation Plus Premium unit. Sony remove PS Plus cards from stores in Januarybefore the announcement of the new PS Plus.

More PS Plus data from Asia: PAL games, catalog…

During the last days we have known other information related to the service that, we remember, may be different in the European market. For example, that some of the titles of the first PlayStation and PSP have trophies on PS5 and PS4, but not all; and that most of those PSX classics are in PAL version, so they don’t run at 60 or 30 FPS, but at 50 or 25 FPS. Also, the initial catalog is far in quantity from the promised figure by Sony: up to 400 games in Extra and up to 340 ms in Premium.
