PlayStation Plus, abbreviated to PS Plus, is a paid-for PlayStation Network subscription service that provides users with access to premium features. These extras include early access to upcoming games, beta trials, regular store discounts, and the ability to have system software updates and game patches download automatically to the console. As part of the subscription, members are given six games every month—typically two for each platform—and 10 GB of internet storage space for up to 1,000 saved game files. Aside from free-to-play games, PlayStation 4 online multiplayer requires a subscription to PlayStation Plus. Users may choose a monthly, three-month or annual subscription.
