Following the reveal of both the PlayStation Plus Essential titles and the first batch of PlayStation Plus Extra games for March, PlayStation has dropped a tasty deal for anyone brand-new to any of the Plus tiers to jump in for the first time.
Starting now and running through the weekend, new members can sign up to the Essential tier for just $1 for the first month, with the Extra and Deluxe tiers getting their own discounts as well. The prices are as follows:
PlayStation Plus Essential 1-Month Subscription – $1 (91% off) then $11.95/mth
PlayStation Plus Extra 1-Month Subscription – $3 (84% off) then $18.95/mth
PlayStation Plus Deluxe 1-Month Subscription – $5 (77% off) then $21.95/mth
Ark: Survival Ascended | PS5
Balatro | PS5, PS4
Warhammer 40,000: Boltgun | PS5, PS4
All playable, May 6.
Saw that Balatro got over 100000! Reviews on Steam. Crazy.
Only game from these three I care about is Warhammer 40,000: Boltgun since it seems to be a nice fps.

Boltgun is so much fun. I own it on Steam, PS4 and Switch (Physical). Beaten it so many times that I could probably get through it in my sleep, lol.

Strange why people disagree with me. Probably they are illiterate or just fanboys who hates PS.
Anyway, the articles clearly said it and I just saved you a click. Thanks Moegooner for the list of countries
With these reckless trade wars going on, expect videogames to keep getting more expensive.
Switch prices were locked in before the Tarrifs. They just conveniently used the tarrifs as an excuse to calm outrage.
PSN is a digital service and isn't subjected to any kind of tarrifs.
They have been trying to find a way to increase the price for years.
Don't let them trick you into blaming tarrifs for corporate greed.
When I look at Brazil, the increased price for PS Essential new users annually is equivalent to $61 USD, monthly is $7.50 USD. In the US it's more expensive. Just an observation that maybe they've been getting a better deal all along.

No, not every country has the same average salary as the United States. When releasing games and consoles, pricing should be based on the local economy and wages, which are often very different from those in the U.S

So companies should sell consoles at a large loss in impoverished countries?
In your own words.
*All are welcome to Switch 2. Microsoft Games Studios is interested in long term profits and market value not petty fanboy thoughts.*
Now, I'll change some of it.

yes they decided on this in a week, it can't be that they were planning it anyway, it couldn't have been. Not from your favourite company.
It's strange. It's like you read the words, but you don't have the ability to understand them.
I already find it to be a terrible value. Go ahead and up the price and 100% lose me.
Not saying a price increase is good but I'm paying £8 a month for access to 1000 games. That's absolutely not terrible value
Sony has today announced that many indie titles will be leaving the service on April 15 including some big hitters
I clicked so yo don’t have to waste your time - games leaving a subscription service, what a shocker!

Kena: Bridge of Spirits – PS5, PS4

I’m signed up until 2028 and have had it since inception but this is a rare deal for people who just started on PS. I always look for deals and add a year or 2 when it’s half off .
I would just get the Plus Extra for one month then upgrade to Extra annually as long as you play more than a certain number of games per year. If you only play say 3 or 4 games per year, I would just buy games normally unless you think all games you would play are games that the service already provides.
My two cents.
Someone needs to edit the subject line, this deal is for Australia only, not currently available for North America.
