Effective from 16th April
- by Liam Croft
The price of a PS Plus subscription across all tiers will be increasing on 16th April 2025 in 15 Latin American countries, Sony has today announced. The countries affected are as follows:
- Argentina
- Bolivia
- Chile
- Colombia
- Costa Rica
- Ecuador
- El Salvador
- Guatemala
- Honduras
- Mexico
- Nicaragua
- Panama
- Paraguay
- Peru
- Uruguay
Sony explained the increases are a result of “global market conditions”. By increasing the prices, it says it can “continue offering high-quality games and value-added benefits to your PlayStation Plus subscription”.
The price hike applies to all new users in the 15 nations, and current members will have to start paying the new costs at the start of their next billing date. The updated prices look like this:
| PS Plus Essential | PS Plus Extra | PS Plus Deluxe | |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 month | $7.99 | $11.99 | $13.99 |
| 3 months | $20.99 | $33.99 | $39.99 |
| 12 months | $64.99 | $107.99 | $124.99 |
According to those affected, these prices reflect a $10 increase for 12 months of PS Plus Essential, a $14 increase for 12 months of PS Plus Extra, and an $18 increase for PS Plus Deluxe. That final one isn’t PS Plus Premium, by the way; it’s PS Plus Deluxe. This is the option Sony offers to countries that can’t stream PS3 games, so it’s a worse deal.
The announcement comes as Sony announces eight new games will be coming to PS Plus Extra and PS Plus Premium next week, including Hogwarts Legacy. Are you affected by these price increases? Let us know in the comments below.
Liam grew up with a PlayStation controller in his hands and a love for Metal Gear Solid. Nowadays, he’s found playing the latest and greatest PS5 games as well as supporting Derby County. That last detail is his downfall.
