Why? They add so much stuff that even if you remove those you still have a lot to choose from, lmao.
This is such a great deal tbh. And i'm sitting on Persona 5 Royal for 3 months, lmao.

...and if you'd start playing it, you'd still be sitting for 3 months.
(Royal does add a lot of QoL improvements, but even the base game is a lot to digest, and then the added content - too much content is a thing. Paging

Tokyo Ghostwire It was a failed launch.

Premium is useless. You just get access to 1 hour trials and PS3 streaming stuff.
Extra is what you want for these monthly games plus all the monthly free PS+ games.
The PS+ or Essential lineup is announced separately.

These tiers are maddening
I’m just on essential because extra includes a bunch of good games that I mostly already own

Just some more variety is all, every month its the same thing a bunch of ubi and square games just get thrown on that people have been seeing in sales for years with 80% off and never get them. If you really wanted the game you would have already bought it. I personally would like to see more day 1 release games on there.

Best month since I can remember. Good to see Sony finally caring for their subscribers.
In my country right now the ps5 version is selling for around $23.

Guess i'm glad i don't buy most games on day one then? Most games on Plus i haven't played them.

And im still waiting for Far Cry 6 and Watch Dogs Legion, so keep them coming.
Tchia is a day 1 release, and they already anounced another day 1 release game for the Essential tier for next month.

I'm about to start the 3rd semester...i played this crap once back in 2020...and the game locked me out of the new stuff because i wasn't friends with everyone i needed. I was so pissed with this game mechanic that i didn't touch this game for 3 years. But i always wanted to get the extra content since everyone says it's the best part of the game. And i'm finally there...after 210 goddamn hours between the first time playing it and the 2nd one so far....and if you'd start playing it, you'd still be sitting for 3 months.

What game with Essential?

Yeah, essential is good enough but Sony offered my the extra upgrade for 40% off so i took it. an extra $25 per year to play all these games sounded like a good deal to me. Got PS+ Essential for just $30 so $55 for both PS+ Essential and Extra was pretty reasonable.

Yup. That’s when I signed up for a year of PS+ Premium.

It's really quite simple.
"Essential" is the peasant tier. You get what breadcrumbs the nobility is willing to drop for mere mortals to chew on. May be good, but generally not. Also required for online if you're so inclined.
"Extra" is the "definitely not Gamepass" tier. So, no first-party titles at launch, but genuinely good stuff and also some indies day one (like Stray).
"Premium" is the "I have more money than sense" tier, that includes some additional titles (like up until recently GTA Vice City Definitive Edition, which was absolute dogshit), also classic games with terrible emulation and game streaming (aka PSNow).
So basically. Get "Essential" if you really want online/a few games per month, but nothing else. Get "Extra" for better value. Get "Premium" if you really have too much disposable income.
(And for full disclosure, I have Premium currently, but that's just because I didn't remember to cancel it before renewal. Next year, I totally will. Or I'll forget again.)

I got premium for their black friday price, and hopefully it renews at that price again.

Vice City was available on Extra. For now, i think premium is best suited for ppl that want to stream games.

Oh, my bad. At any rate - it was terrible, even made a thread on it.

Did not tried it, it did look bad though, and i have good memories of the OG Vice City, so i rather keep those.

50% off PS+ was black friday on PSN.
40% off PS+ extra was on christmas.
It's typically a $40 upgrade from Essential but i got it for $25 IIRC. They also prorate it so it was probably a bit cheaper since the upgrade was for the remaining 11 months.

IKR? It's only that some of the dungeons drag on too long, and towards the end the plot gets a bit too sappy I preferred the sarcastic Zeus as a narrator. But all in all, a positive surprise.

Solid list, except for the Premium part. I want more PSP titles.
