Starting this week, PlayStation Plus is instantly 20% more expensive for most tiers, with Essential jumping to $99.99 per year and Premium hitting a shocking $159.99. For the average player, that's an extra $20 to $40 annually that you won't get back, all while Sony pushes more quick microtransactions and removes free monthly games from the archive. Experts say this is a direct cash grab to boost quarterly earnings, not add value. Check your auto-renewal now, or this silent fee will hit your bank before you can cancel.
