We have some new details on PS Plus for the PS4. It will be required to play online but not for free-to-play games or MMOs. One subscription will grant access to all accounts on that system.


Cross game chat and other media functions won’t require the subscription. This includes services like Netflix.


Games will be added and removed just like the current subscription on PS3 and you will be getting one new PS4 game every month. It’s not clear whether it would be a PS Plus edition like DriveClub which has altered content.


The subscription isn’t required for automatic updates. It will cost $50 or $5 per month. It’s something you pay for PS Plus already on PS3 so it really isn’t a surprise.


The PS4 will be released sometime later this year and according to some retailer listings in Europe, it could be You must login or register to view this content.. However, Sony has said that it’s just a placeholder date.

Wait, I'm confused here :confused:

So if I don't have ps+, which means I have no online access(?), I can still chat to friends over PSN?

Or am I reading into ps+ wrong? Is it that you can still sign in but you can't play games online without it?

youll have online acces still, just not multiplayer aspects of the games you buy, you'll still have be able to connect to the internet on your ps4, the chat will just run off the internet like the ps vita does i assume

PS+ is the best option if you don't have much money to spend on games, and if they continue giving great games like they're doing now, it's awesome Happy

November 13 is a odd date. Why do i keep hearing "Released this fall" and "Released this Holiday". Which one is it? I could imagine them releasing it before the Xbox or at the same date. It would be foolish of them not to.
