Sony announces it is increasing prices for new PlayStation Plus subscriptions in select regions, citing “ongoing market conditions.” Multiple outlets report that the change applies to customers purchasing or renewing certain short-term tiers, not to all existing subscribers immediately. Eurogamer and The Verge both state that current subscribers typically are not affected by the new pricing as long as they keep their existing plan; price increases apply if a subscription lapses or the plan is changed. The Verge reports specific starting prices tied to the update date of May 20, including a one-month price of $10.99 in the US and corresponding amounts in euros and pounds, as well as a three-month price of $27.99 with equivalents in EUR and GBP. Vice similarly reports that the monthly subscription increases by $1 and the three-month subscription increases by $3. Eurogamer adds that exceptions may apply in Turkey and India, where customers may face different treatment under the announced changes.
