Hi bargainers

I’m considering on purchasing a PlayStation subscription for the kids - not sure what level I should purchase - all I know is that they want the free games and the ability to play online

Are there any hacks besides VPN foreign subscriptions to get it for less?

Thanks

  Based on your requirements (free games and the ability to play online), the PlayStation Plus Essential plan would be the most suitable option for your kids. This plan includes monthly games, online multiplayer, and other core benefits at the lowest price among the three plans.

    Thanks

    It’s seems the only difference is no Ubisofts+ classics and no game catalogue

  With the exchange rate what it is, it isn't much cheaper to buy a US account now.

  Best bet is to wait for discounted gift cards and buy then (usually around BF).

    It hasn’t been worth getting a us account since the dollar was parity lol.

  PS+ Extra gives them a large library of PS4/PS5 games and what you’re after.

  Just by $79 PlayStation plus essential, when Black Friday comes around stack it for half price, and keep doing until you have 4 years of membership that way it’s cheap.

    Thanks - do you still recommend staying on essential when BF comes around?

    By stacking do you mean sign up for a top up?

    4 years - do you mean you can buy a 4 years worth of membership?

      No, you'll want PS+ Extra for the added PS4 and PS5 game catalog which gives them hundreds of games to play (like Netflix).

      PS+ Essential only gives you the monthly 3 games.

      You don't have to stack at all as sales happen throughout the year but yes you can buy multiple years worth of membership.
