Sony has announced a PlayStation Plus price increase for the UK, Europe, and Australia. This contradicts a statement made last year when they increased the price for the North American regions according to an interview with Game Reactor last August.
Here are the details on what the pricing will look like next month:
United Kingdom
Yearly Subscription: £39.99 to £49.99
Quarterly Subscription: £14.99 to £19.99
Monthly Subscription: £5.99 to £6.99
Europe
Yearly Subscription: €49.99 to €59.99
Quarterly Subscription: €19.99 to €24.99
Monthly Subscription: €6.99 to €7.99
Australia
Yearly Subscription: $69.95 to $79.95
Quarterly Subscription: $27.95 to $33.95
Monthly Subscription: $9.95 to $10.95
In comparison, the North American regions currently pay:
USA
Yearly Subscription: $59.99
Quarterly Subscription: $24.99
Monthly Subscription: $9.99
Canada
Yearly Subscription: $69.99
Quarterly Subscription: $29.99
Monthly Subscription: $11.99
It would be a wise move to buy PlayStation Plus pre-paid cards before next month at the current price.
