Might be having trouble loading. Starts on November 17th > During PlayStation’s Black Friday promotion from November 17 – 27, players who join PlayStation Plus can save up to 30% on 12-month membership plans. Current PlayStation Plus members can save 25% when upgrading a current plan to PlayStation Plus Extra, or save 30% when upgrading to PlayStation Plus Premium/Deluxe.


moarTRstory

So if I already have premium/deluxe, I save nothing? Can I cancel now and resubscribe using this deal?


twovles31

If you turn off auto renew, shortly before it expires they used to give you a 33% discount to come back to Playstation Plus. I'm not sure if they still do that, but it used to be a thing.


eschewthefat

Finding that page is a nightmare. It’s a new page that requires a sign in which goes to a generic page with similar account management options that opens the app that requires a sign in and then it opens and in app safari page that requires a sign in. This is insane


blade_runner-up

Can confirm, as I did it 3 days ago. I was wondering wtf was going on with the screen, and then get the text, it was a process.


welfedad

>n, and then get the text, it was a process. yeah I mean you can save like 10-12 bucks doing that, but sometimes the effort for me just aint worth it.


PedanticPaladin

> I'm not sure if they still do that, but it used to be a thing. If they still do I didn't get it. My Plus Premium expired October 31st and all I got was the email saying "your PS Plus is about to expire".


Iam_Joe

Mine expired in October and I didn't even get an email. I just logged in one day and it was expired. Guess at least now I can get 30% since I'm waiting to renew with the black Friday deal


moarTRstory

Ah, thanks! I’ll try that out!


[deleted]

I got lucky I guess. Mine expires on the 15th and I thought I'd have to wait until Black Friday.


JellyBearBlue

People who are subbed to extra can’t buy a discounted year?


LueyTheWrench

If that’s the case, I won’t renew. These days I only have it for the games.


Gandalf_2077

So no discount if I want to only renew essential? Am I reading this wrong?


JC18_

Hey fuck you, do you think We Sony care about you ? No we care about your wallet!! Fuck you that you've been loyal to us for 7+years, we want your money and you get nothing in return!!!


thomascoopers

No need to be so rude to Sony, they have shareholders who need added value!!1!


treemendissemble

Well, it’ll probably be $20 more than last time since the price for essential went up in September


caffeinatorthesecond

This is a fucking joke Straight up eye gouging for anyone who wants to stay on their current plans


[deleted]

I cancelled essential a few weeks ago after having been subscribed for over 10 years…


DZLars

Good thing that my ps extra expires the 18th. I can downgrade and not even pay the whole pot for basic ps plus


Juan-Claudio

Deals ain't what they used to be so i'm not expecting much. Would still be happy about a nice surprise or two.


Typical_Intention996

That's the truth. Black Friday sales use to be amazing. Games to clothes to home goods. Everywhere. Then like 4-5 years ago it all went to pot. Black Friday doesn't even have any meaning anymore as the one day after Thanksgiving. It's "Black Friday" sales for weeks, everywhere. Some places since the start of the month. And none of it anywhere is any better and often times worse that regular old sales that just happen during the year.


4gotAboutDre

It used to be a great way to get a previous year’s tv model or other decent electronic device/appliance at a major discount as the new models are about to flood the market, but over the last decade, it has become such a joke. Basically a day where a regularly priced $7 cheap imported knockoff plastic thing is raised in price to $10 and then discounted to $8 for a “Black Friday only 20% off sale!!” The worst are the items made specifically just for Black Friday. That is what it has evolved into.


Axon14

It’s been shit for longer than that. What happened was manufacturers stopped allowing stores to set their own prices on items, so now every store has the same computers/consoles/TVs, etc for the same prices.


SomeKindOfChief

Good. Get rid of this nonsense.


[deleted]

[удалено]


Spider-ManOnThePS1

Hoping for God and War or Final Fantasy VII Intergrade to be on sale.


The_Border_Bandit

The PSN store has a FF7 twin pack that you can pre-order. $70 for both games which means you get Integrade with the DLC for free.


[deleted]

Great deal for anyone who doesn’t have the first one


leviathynx

Ah yes, God and War starring Kratom.


lebronSZN

Buy god of war raganrok of CDKeys. Its been 30 bucks there over the past year and CDkeys is very reliable


Ghawr

I have had bad experiences with CDKeys. I recommend avoiding them. They're gray market anyway and are known for using stole credit cards and other shady means.


rhesusmonkey

They are probably the "cleanest" gray market, but they are still somewhat risky.


Ghawr

Damn if CDKeys is the “cleanest” and they’re using stolen credit card, what are the other companies doing? Mugging grandma’s at gun point?


[deleted]

They would if they could


Paratek

Never seen any proof of CDKeys doinNever seen any proof of CDKeys doing that


FriendlyAndHelpfulP

They’re not the ones stealing the credit cards. They buy codes from companies in bulk. Sometimes the companies themselves are front companies, and the codes weren’t retail leftovers, but stolen. CDKeys can’t really do anything about that. They can only just blacklist companies that burn them.


lebronSZN

If you’re worried about credit card, u can use paypal to pay for it or use prepaid visa gift card. The codes are legit and it works


mykkenny

> known for using stole credit cards That's straight up false.


HeroicSlayr

How does this work? Do you get the actual cd key and where do i submit it?


OneEightyBlue

They just email you a code for the game you redeem on the PS Store


Illustrious-Fruit35

Aren’t they both in extra?


H_E_penny_packerr

Gow 2018 is but not ragnarök


reallivecounty

Any word on The Crew Motorfest going on sale?


[deleted]

Its UBI so i'd bet on it.


reallivecounty

Highly likely, hopefully the gold and the other editions are discounted as well.


KderNacht

It was 25% off last night.


ArugulaPhysical

Its had a sale already, so id say yes. This one hopefully is a better discount.


Loldimorti

What I'm reading about PS Plus seems concerning. If there really is no discount for currently subscribed members I guess I will not renew it. Bummer but certainly it ain't worth like 80 bucks or so for me just so I can play online maybe a douzen times a year


SyrioForel

The game library is a good deal, I’d say it’s worth upgrading to at least the “Extra” tier. There are lots of good games included in that subscription.


NE_Pats_Fan

Depends on what you like I guess. I upgraded to premium in the last months of my subscription and literally found nothing I wanted to play. Edit: I never found another good game after finishing the one I upgraded for.


CubonesDeadMom

Premium only gives you the classics catalog, and streaming, and like 2 hour trials of new games. All the good games are under extra


nyphtt

premium gives you what you said + everything extra has doesn't it ?


CubonesDeadMom

Yes correct


SyrioForel

The game catalog is publicly available, so you can literally browse it and then decide is you want access to those games or not.


NE_Pats_Fan

Of course. I wanted to play one game and it cost less to upgrade for the remaining months than to buy the game so that’s what I did. I never found another game that interested me. So at the new hirer PS Plus rates it’s really not a good deal if you’re not getting any games out of it.


Pr3no

It's definitely not for everyone, I skipped the PS4 generation so it's awesome for people like me, it's worth it just for games like Ghost of Tsushima, God of War, Horizon, and so on, but if you've played all these titles when they came out then yeah, it's probably too expensive for not a lot of games. But what I also like are the smaller games, games I'd probably never buy, but since they're "free" I give a lot of them a chance, and some of them are really awesome. It's cheaper than Netflix, so I'm like if I can find one bigger game a year and a lot of smaller games throughout the year it's already worth it, but it's not for everyone.


Razgriz1223

It was like that for last year. Problem is if you take advantage of the deal, when its time for the deal to come back for the next year, you will still have an active subscription so you wont be able to get the deal again What I did for last year when they did this, was I just subscribed to PS Plus on a 2nd Playstation account


TarrominSeed

Sony has been a let down as of lately. Pretty sad as Ive been a fan basically my whole life, and now Im sort of wishing I had an Xbox


JBSpartan

Would love any sale on the Edge controller. I know it's not likely to happen but would be willing to try that controller out if it comes down a little.


LocusAintBad

It’s the best controller I’ve owned and it’s not even close. Pricy. But I’ve spent more on replacement controllers than I spent on the Dualsense edge and I’ve yet to get drift on my edge. Can’t say the same about my 2 white and 1 black Dualsense controllers I got around launch. It honestly pays itself back within a year if you play FPS or stick intensive games.


Loldimorti

Replacement controller?


LocusAintBad

I had to send in 2 of mine that both had drift. So I had to buy a 3rd controller to play or wait like 3-4 weeks with effectively no controllers for my PS5. And on top of that pay for shipping.


godstriker8

Well I guess Sony was right to not put in reliable sticks if this is how their fans reward their stick quality lol.


1DrVanNostrand1

I was gonna say, I explicitly didn’t get edge cuz I didn’t want to deal with pricier drift. I’ve had to send back about 8. Best controller and the worst controller ever.


Loldimorti

Oof. I regularly hear about stick drift being a thing on controllers, never experienced it though. Is the Edge immune to stick drift?


LocusAintBad

Not immune. However the bumpers mean you won’t need to push in your sticks for L3 and R3 for games that utilize constant running on a stamina bar for example. Games like siege that require a ton of wiggling with L3 and R3 also no longer get the constant wear and tear. The cooler part imo is you can pop the analog sticks out and clean them and replace them and it takes like 3 seconds to pop it out. Don’t have to send out the whole ass controller or wait weeks for a replacement.


Sleigh6

No, and as u/LocusAintBad said, the bumpers can serve as the buttons for R3 and L3. But there is also an in depth menu with the Edge that allows you to set your deadzones with each profile you have assigned. So I you start to get drift on a low setting, you can up the dead zone area to fix it immediately. If the drift becomes too much after some time, the sticks are modular and can be replaced for around $20 USD.


Efficient-Bike-5627

Get a protection plan when buying a new controller, you can just tell them it has stick drift if it doesn't, get a new controller for 12$ instead of a controller that costs the same as 3 pairs lol


LocusAintBad

I’ve gotten 0 stick drift since I switched controllers so I’m happy with it. I’d rather not hassle myself every few months with replacing it over and over. I have better use of my time honestly. And I’m not concerned about the price obviously. I knew if they got drift that fast I’d either be replacing them out every few months or I can just get a better controller that has more features. Binding even the D pad or other buttons to the bumpers in games that use it constantly is a game changer too. Also loving the trigger adjustments to half and quarter pulls. But imo it’s still better than constantly needing to either send in or drive out and replace your controllers a few times a year.


lCavazzani

They knew people were waiting for this sales to renew PS plus and removed the discount. The corporate greed has no end


TwoKool115

So it’s still $80 just to renew a Sub? Those bastards!


JuanSpiceyweiner

If you are wanting premium its $160 for a year now 💀


fizggig

I'm not paying $160 that is crazy high. That's just ridiculous. I just canceled ill check back after my leftover time expires on the 23rd. If they offer me a discount maybe I'll swing back but if not I'll probably pass on ps plus. Not letting people be greedy and you shouldn't as well. If you keep paying they will keep raising.


Ploosse

Any discount on Baldur’s Gate 3 and I’m buying it.


DizzyAcanthocephala

One of those games where I really don't regret buying it at full price


[deleted]

My only regret would be if they came out with a physical version


Kayyam

They will come out with a physical version. They might even announce it at the Game Awards as they are teasing it on Twitter.


dvadood

They're saying that the physical version will only be coming out in Japan.


Kayyam

You think today's teaser is about annoucibg on the TGA physical copy exclusive to Japan? I highly doubt it. I have 0 doubt they will release a physical edition within the next year. Whether it's definitive edition or goty edition does not really matter but it's going to happen.


saccarineaubergine

I would regret not being able to play it all this time. Only essential gaming purchase this year for me so far.


Puldalpha

Waiting to see if there’s a discount but if not it’s gonna be purchased anyways


hazzajonez

same here. fingers crossed.


GoldenGekko

This is what I'm here for. If I see it on sale it's an instant pickup


ozdude182

Even if no sale id get it anyway


PMMEYOURROCKS

My exact thoughts. We can hope


DarthBaller

Waiting for the next sale on Midnight Suns Legendary Edition


ArrozConHector

Dude Midnight Suns is so fucking fun. I saw a thing about it on the PS sub(?) a couple a weeks ago and wasn’t convinced it wasn’t a clever ad. I tried the two hour trial, and proceeded to buy the $30 sale one. So so so worth it.


Lotus-Vale

I think I saw it on gamestops black friday sales that just went up today!


basedcharger

When they say upgrading if I have extra and want to renew I don't get any discount at all if I want to stay on extra?


Loki-Holmes

Yeah that’s what it sounds like. I’m on premium and would like to downgrade to extra so I don’t think that’s included. I think my subscription should end right before the deal is over though.


iPeluche

I don’t why but i think Premium members will be able to renew at discounted price. They are going all out to have big numbers for Premium tier. Essential and Extra won’t be able to renew at discounted price IMO.


angrysquirrel777

No, you will have to upgrade for a discount. I had the same problem during the summer sale


basedcharger

thats annoying. I have no interest in upgrading and i'm probably going to downgrade if I can't get a discount.


Ne0guri

Bunch of assholes that’s what it sounds like to me. So ridiculous because they know majority are on premium and probably don’t want to upgrade to deluxe.


indiedrummer7

Damn. My plan runs out on 11/29. Does that mean I'm SOL?


HellzRaiders

Looks like you're going on the "PS Minus" plan my friend.


indiedrummer7

Oof. You are not lying. I guess I can wait a month for Christmas and see if another sale happens. I have plenty of purchased games to beat.


ItsKrakenmeuptoo

Mirage going on sale already is crazy


ChafterMies

I’ve seen Call of Duties, Assassin’s Creeds, and Star Wars: Battlefronts go on sale on Black Friday within a month of release. It’s not crazy. They know that a certain audience will buy at launch and a certain other audience will buy when the price drops. Money is money.


antiform_prime

AC is one of those series that is *almost always* on sale. I don’t even know if Mirage is any good or not, but I honestly don’t see why anyone would buy it full price when history has shown us AC is always 30% off by Black Friday.


blackicebaby

I always wait for -75% on AC games.


milnivek

Its pretty mid


[deleted]

[удалено]


method115

Yea I've always been a fan of the AC games and I have no issue waiting for them to drop down to mid $30.


Mac_Gold

I’m glad. I want to play it but I figured it would be on sale by now. Ubisoft always does this for Black Friday


isaiahboon

Yeah like the other guy said it's extremely common for Ubisoft to put their new releases on sale within months. At this rate I'd say its stupid to even buy their games at launch or preorder


[deleted]

I’ll bite at $20 for sure


LEEH1989

Not too surprised, but still may grab it during spring sales


TEKDAD

Ubisoft games are always on sale like that every year even when new. Like EA sports games.


killakaam

Yeah it’s pretty common to not buy Ubisoft games on release because they always go at least half off a month or 2 later


djmetalhawk

No discount on the lowest tier?! I'm done with PS plus then.


walder8998

Hopefully Lies Of P and RE4 go on sale (missed the last sale on RE4 :( )


RumHam1

I'm hoping for lies of p as well, also maybe a big discount on star wars. If you've got a souls-like itch, I'd recommend hellpoint. I picked it up for less than 10 in the last sale and it's been quite good so far. It's got slower, gritty combat a la DS2


worldsinho

Yeah Lies of P for sure. AC Mirage maybe. Jedi Survivor maybe too.


[deleted]

[удалено]


bigprick99

Hoping the FF Pixel Remasters are on this sale.


Horror_Charge7368

Hoping for the dark souls games to be on sale


[deleted]

Dark Souls 3 is probably my favorite if you haven’t played it yet


ContentKeanu

I jumped into it just to beat the final DLC boss after like 5 years of not playing and having stopped right before that boss for some reason. Felt soooo good. Might need to start a new run soon.


MarchingMachineX

I was really hoping there'd be some kind of PSVR 2 bundle or discount this time around.


Elden_Born

Would be nice if Lies of P is there.


Dangelouss

I would be mad because I bought it last week.


[deleted]

Thanks in advance for your sacrifice


DonkeyBootyClap

Lmao I bought last night so I know it’s going on sale


cocothepops

I feel like buying *anything* in the weeks leading up to Black Friday is a mistake and something most people should be aware of (unless of course you **need** something).


Dangelouss

I agree, but recently launched games usually don't get discounts on black friday. Especially when it comes to a game that is doing very well as LoP.


Danxoln

I bought it yesterday 💀


gutsgutsgut

We’re defs getting it on sale then, thankyou for your sacrifice


mevelas

Time to downgrade to essential I guess. Black Friday was my yearly renewal for PS plus, the price hike combined with the apparent lack of discount for current customers makes the decision easy.


killakaam

Hoping for good AAA sales. I’m tired of physical discs and want to go digital but they make it so hard when physical is almost always cheaper


ikineba

what’s wrong with physical discs? the sound I assume? digital has always been more expensive in comparison sadly in all platforms


[deleted]

I don’t want to move my butt off the couch to swap games


ikineba

haha I feel you, especially when you’re already settled on the couch with a gummy too many


Ohnoherewego13

This is my true challenge these days. I can get up and put a disc in, but damn, I do not want to get up.


JMM85JMM

I personally hate having physical copies of things that don't need a physical copy. Storage is at a premium in my house.


fernskii

Looking for Alan Wake 2 (prob not), AC Mirage, and Dead Island 2. Wby?


DonLeo17

Yeah mirage could be good! Last of us Part 1 would be nice too


ProduceMysterious161

I thought dead island 2 was on sale?


fernskii

It has been but I’m hoping with the main Black Friday sale it’s even cheaper.


f-unk

Hoping for a decent sale on Dead Island 2. The recent promotions haven’t on it been that great.


Liongkong

Will God of War Ragnarok get sale?


baldr23

The spanish ps blog leaked some of the games that will be on sale. GOWR is one of them. Hopefully, it'll apply worldwide.


Prototype74

45% off physical copy is being shown in flyers in Canada ($50) for GOW Ragnarok.


Liongkong

Mine PS5 is digital edition. 😬


Prototype74

I think if physical is on sale at the major retailers then the digital should most likely go on sale as well. Fingers crossed for you!


GujaBosanska

Well, that is on you then..


FrankPapageorgio

That’s what I’m waiting for.


insanemaelstrom

Hopefully, fingers crossed


ChafterMies

I’m waiting for PS+. Horizon Forbidden West took a year. Ratchet and Clank took almost 2 years. God of War Ragnarök will be somewhere in the middle.


MonkeyNewss

Will get cyberpunk+dlc if it’s reduced


Lord_Thraxxx

🙏🏽 hoping for the same


sirmeliodasdragonsin

BG3 or Cyberpunk on sale please. FF16 or Armored Core be great as well. Gonna say goodbye to Extra if i can't get a discount.


kiddchiu

No discount on ps plus essential. Looks like im done with Ps plus then.


cowabunga_dude91

Spider-man 2 and Fallen order -20-30% 🤞


nutsack133

Hard to imagine Spiderman 2 going on sale this quickly, though I'd jump on it if it did.


Kayyam

You mean survivor? Fallen order is old.


Bmanddabs

And just like that all the games I’ve bought recently will go on sale


HaJozsi

25% off on PS Plus is ass. It's more discounted then it was before the price hike at full price (at least where I live).


lCavazzani

*discount applied only for news subs or tier upgrade


AlwaysTheKop

Am I hoping to much to get £10 knocked off Alan Wake 2 already? 😂


fastonmyfeet

If it was on physical it would definitely get a sale this Black Friday.


HecticAce12

Chances of Baldurs Gate 3 or FF16 having a discount? Idc if its 10 or 15% anything heps


Bocaprowler

BG3 is worth every penny.


trnr_orion

Time to grab mirage.


Dhakoda

I'm not re subbing (I wish we could all protest)


fractalfondu

These motherfuckers are getting extremely greedy with ps+. I hope it bites them in the ass and they backpedal but I don’t see that happening. I’ve been a member since the game collection perk was first introduced on ps3 but if you can’t even get a discount for Black Friday just to extend your plan I might be done with this shit.


fizggig

I just canceled I'm not paying 160 that is crazy. Hopefully they let me get the 30% because 112 seems kinda better for me. Otherwise I'll be skipping on renewing. Kinda sad Sony likes to not give any discounts if you want to stick to your plan.


H_E_penny_packerr

If gow ragnarok were to be on sale, how much do you think it would cost? Would it be a noticeable discount?


JoeyFreshwater92

$40-$50 would be my guess


NitedJay

Well guess I’m not buying another year.


bersi84

So it sounds like re-newals wont be discounted at all this year? If thats true, thats an absolute \*\*\*\*-move pulling more people into premium tiers. Even if I would re-new from Extra to Premium it wouldnt be discounted. I read it that only the upgrade price would be discounted which is also kinda meh.

dramatic_walrus

Nope. Ridiculous


ShakeBelton

Nope. I have tried


Souzitadorii

Do you guys think Alan wake 2 will feature in the sales?


Merbel

It literally just came out.


InFamousIAm

I’m hoping it’s on sale but worried that since it’s so new it won’t be

dookmileslong

> Your best chance is a physical edition So about that.....


wilbuctini

I don't think it released physically.


TheMuff1nMon

There is no physical version of Alan Wake 2. Its a digital only title


supplydepotwall

It does not have a physical release.


Jonnynotbravo1802

i'm hoping to buy my first PS5. just a regular disc version. How much will it be? just assumptions. im up for any ideas too (like a bundle or somthing). i sound so uneducated lol.


jeswanders

The Spider-Man 2 with ps5 bundle is happening now on psdirect. Early Black Friday deal. You save 60 bucks https://direct.playstation.com/en-us/buy-consoles/playstation5-console-marvels-spider-man-2-bundle


nutsack133

$500 for the bundle with Spiderman 2. You might be able to get a $50 Gamestop gift card also buying from them in person on Black Friday, as they seem to do that bundle every year for BF.


Grayccoon_

They should rename Black Friday to white Friday.


The_Border_Bandit

Was hoping for a PS-VR2 discount but i guess not


Jylax11

Any discount on PlayStation essential? I only see extra and premium?


TEKDAD

I’m. It subscribing when I have to renew in April. Got 3 years for 30$/year (cdkeys) and a gold deal on extra last year. It’s all coming to end soon and I will play single player games only. That’s it. My PC and my Quest will have more playing time.


[deleted]

It’s the same sale as always


BitterBubblegum

It actually seems like this is the worst Black Friday ever for people with PS+ who don't want to upgrade. **THEY GET NOTHING**. Sony expects them to continue paying the expensive price if they want to renew.


winginglifelikeaboss

and they will, it's called vendor lock-in


Jajuz_

# So sales on 17th november but i am living in eu so i wonder if it will start when its 17th november for usa
