Unsurprisingly, this means that PS Plus Essential, the most basic tier of the service, has 33 million subscribers. Therefore, in only 10 months, these new variations of the subscription service have increased PS Plus users by 30%. Sony only introduced these tiers to PlayStation 4 and PlayStation 5 in May of 2022. However, collectively both of these tiers have amassed 14.1 million users, which is a great feat. But, for some reason, it has fewer subscribers than PlayStation Plus Premium. Costing $99.99 yearly and $14.99 monthly, Extra is the less expensive of the higher tiers. This accounts for 13% of the 47 million plus players using any PlayStation tier. On the other hand, the less pricey of the higher tiers, PS Plus Extra, has 6.1 million subscribers. Hence, the more costly PlayStation Plus tier at $119.99 has more consumers buying it. More specifically, 8 million of the PS Plus subscribers are enrolled in the Premium tier, which accounts for roughly 17%. The Premium and Extra tiers, first introduced in May 2022, account for a decent 30% of these users.

However, the more costly tiers still have a long way to go before they reach the Xbox Game Pass, as it currently has less than half of its 29 million users count.Īs per the documents of the 2023 Business Meeting, PlayStation Plus has 47.4 million Subscribers as of March 2023.

This accounts for 30% of all the users on the service, with the pricier Premium tier having more subscribers than Extra. Sony has revealed in its 2023 Business Segment that the Premium and Extra tiers of PlayStation Plus collectively have 14.1 million subscribers. Overall, the new higher tiers account for 30% of 47.1 million PS Plus users, with the Essential tier having the most users with 33 million.The Premium tier has 8 million subscribers, with the less costly extra amassing 6.1 million in under a year.PlayStation Plus Premium/Extra has over 14 million subscribers after 10 months, less than half of Xbox Game Pass.
