    The new PS Plus Tiers are now available on the PSN Asia markets, which means newcomers can subscriber to either three tiers of their choosing. However, what of those who have already subscribed? How do you upgrade to PS Plus Extra and Deluxe/Premium? Here are the steps on how you can go about it.

    How to Upgrade PS Plus Tier via Website

    For subscribers who want to upgrade on the website, it is fairly easy to do. There are two ways to do so.

    Via Profile:

    • Click on your profile and then go to Subscriptions Management.
    PS Plus Upgrade
    • A window will pop up on the right saying Subscriptions. It will also show your current PS Plus plan, the next payment date and the next payment. You have the option to Buy Again, Change the subscription, or Cancel it. Choose the Change option.

    • The window details will change and now it will show the tiers that you can choose from. Below would be the Essential version, which should have details on the current plan, and the amount of money left you paid for it. This will factor in to the computation for the price you will need to pay for upgrading to new tier. The next one will be Extra plus the amount of money you need to pay, and the top will be Deluxe/Premium.

Choose Continue to Upgrade to go to the next part.

    How to Upgrade PS Plus via PS App

    If you are planning to upgrade your PS Plus subscription via the PS App, here’s how you do it:

    ps plus tier upgrade
    • First, go to the PS Store page on the app and press the hamburger menu (yes, the three lines icon) on the top right.
    • After the menu drops down, choose the Subscriptions Management option.
    • The Subscriptions tab should appear after that. Choose the Change Plan option and press the Change button to change your plan.
    • From here, choose the higher tier you want to upgrade to: Extra or Deluxe/Premium. The price for upgrading should be computed automatically by the system, so choose wisely.
    • After choosing the tier upgrade you want, it should show the details of the plan and the fee you need to pay for the upgrade. Press Continue to Upgrade to finally seal the deal.
    • This will be the final status window you will see before you can officially accept the upgrade and pay for the upgrade fee. Review the details first before pressing that Accept button. If you are satisfied, press the button.

    And that is how you upgrade your PS Plus tier with the PS App.

    When will the New PS Plus Plans be Available?

    For subscribers who are planning to upgrade to a higher tier, here are the dates you need to watch out when it is available in your region:

    • Asia markets (excluding Japan) – targeting May 23, 2022
    • Japan – targeting June 1, 2022
    • Americas – targeting June 13, 2022
    • Europe – targeting June 22, 2022
    How Much Do You Need to Pay to Upgrade to PS Plus Extra or Premium/Deluxe?

    The fee pricing depends on how many months that are left in your subscription plus the type of tier/plan you want to upgrade to. The calculations are usually automatically done by the system, but here is how it works:

    Monthly

    • PS Plus Essential to Extra = $5/month
    • PS Plus Essential to Premium = $8/month

    Quarterly

    • PS Plus Essential to Extra = $15/month
    • PS Plus Essential to Premium = $25/month

    Yearly

    • PS Plus Essential to Extra = $39/year
    • PS Plus Essential to Premium = $59/year

    Hope that helps in clearing up the upgrade fees confusion.
