The PlayStation Plus discount code 12-month membership is 25% off today, May 19, meaning you’ll pay just $45 for the subscription service with promo code TSCPSPLUS that’s exclusive to The Shortcut. The Sony PS Plus price is $60 MSRP, so you’ll save $15, a much better value than any PlayStation Plus 1-month membership.

This PlayStation Plus discount offers all of the benefits at just $45 (never pay $60 when you’re subscribed to The Shortcut), including online multiplayer and PS Plus free games game service. It almost makes up for the fact that we’ve had so few PS5 restock dates in May 2022 (though the Xbox Series X price has stabilized today).

You’ll save $20 and change on the PS5 (and PS4) PlayStation Plus membership – if you use the online code below. You can claim those PlayStation Plus free games for May 2022, including FIFA 22 for PS4 and PS5.

➡️ Currently PS Plus is available through Eneba for $44.90 (MSRP is $60 from Sony)
➡️ PS Plus discount code: TSCPSPLUS
Discount code last checked today, May 19, 2022
Eneba is a trusted site that I’ve used time and time again

It’s just $44.90 for the PlayStation Plus 12-month membership (remember to use the online discount code) instead of the $60 that Sony is charging. You get the PS Plus code from Eneba and redeem it in the PlayStation Store as normal.

Saving $15 with this PS Plus deal is meaningful when the $499 PS5 Disc console is already expensive. And you’ll want to save up for the PSVR 2 pre-order date and the best PS5 games and endless PS5 accessories. Those PS5 SSD options cost a lot if you want the 2TB storage option, for example.

PlayStation Plus discount code explained

• How did I find this PS Plus discount code? During my PS5 restock efforts, I found the best PlayStation Plus promo codes are still active in March 2022. Usually, even the best PS Plus discounts go back up after Black Friday. So you don’t have to wait until Cyber Monday 2022 for this PS Plus deal.

• Is it stackable? Yes. ‘Stackable’ means you don’t have to wait for your current PlayStation Plus membership to expire to renew. Instead of letting it expire, you can use the code emailed at any point. You just redeem the voucher on the PlayStation Store as normal and it’ll add 12 months to your remaining plan.

• Can you buy 3 years of PlayStation Plus? Yes. When I find a really good PS Plus discount, I usually buy three years of the Sony membership and, once again, because it’s stackable, I’m set for a very long time.

• Is the PlayStation Plus discount code sent instantly? Yes, the voucher is emailed to you right away for you to redeem.

• But your lead photo has a physical PlayStation card in it? It’s just a prop. Any other questions, contact me through Twitter.

How much does PlayStation Plus cost?

The PlayStation Plus 1-year membership price is $60 MSRP when you’re purchasing it through Sony, although they do sometimes have discounts for 50% off at $30 – but only for new members. Currently, the official PlayStation website says $59.99.

Even when Sony does offer that special PlayStation Plus discount price, canceling and trying to get the PS Plus deal won’t help if you’re on the recurring payment plan. Creating a new PlayStation Plus account just for the discount isn’t very appealing since you’ll lose all of your cloud-stored game history, purchases and trophies.

Is PS Plus 12-month worth it?

There are three different PlayStation Plus membership plans in 2022:

• PlayStation Plus 12-month membership at $59.99 (promo code for $45)

• PlayStation Plus 3-month membership at $24.99

• PlayStation Plus 1-month membership at $9.99 (most expensive in the long run)

Even without the current discount, at full price, the 12-month membership from Sony has you saving 50% by choosing it over the monthly PlayStation Plus plan.

Add in today’s PlayStation Plus discount code and you’re saving another $15 off the original price (yes, I’ve done the math). In other words, there’s no reason to overpay Sony for its service when this PS Plus deal is still available at a much cheaper price.

Is PlayStation Plus cheap on Black Friday?

PlayStation Plus discounts are strongest during Black Friday from sites like Eneba and CDKeys, however, the promo codes have remained solid into May 2022.

PlayStation Plus promo codes have remained solid into May 2022.

Sony also dropped the price of PlayStation Plus during Black Friday through the PlayStation Store to $30 for everyone – including renewing members – but that lasted for one weekend and also charged hefty sales tax, something that you won’t find going with Internet-based sites like Eneba or CD Keys at the moment.

What free games does PlayStation Plus offer?

Sony rotates PlayStation Plus free games monthly. May 2022 offers four games that are available to download as long as you’re a member. This month, you can play:

PlayStation Plus May 2022

• FIFA 22 (PS5 and PS4)

• Tribes Midgard (PS5 and PS4)

• Curse of the Dead Gods (PS4, compatible with PS5)

Should I get PlayStation Plus now or wait?

It’s best to have a PlayStation Plus membership sooner rather than later, as you can keep playing these games as long as you’re a member. At the end of the month, these three games will be rotated out for three other games that you can download, but you can keep playing the old ones too – this is important – as long as you added them to your library while they were available.

Contrast that if you join PlayStation Plus later, like next month. You can’t go back and download the free games that were part of the prior months.

PlayStation Plus price 1-month

Yes, there’s a PlayStation Plus 1-month membership option, but the subscription is hardly worth it when you look at how much it costs. It costs $9.99 and at that price, there are no significant deals for PS Plus 1 month.

You’ll get much more value out of the PlayStation Plus 12-month membership (as much as 50% through Sony and even more – like 69% – using a discount code at Eneba and CDKeys vs 1 month). The $9.99 a month 1-month PS Plus option (it adds up to $120 per year) just isn’t worth it when PS Plus 12-month is $40 and lasts 12 times as long as one month of PlayStation Plus at MSRP.

PS Plus offers Sony Direct PS5 free shipping

Here’s another big benefit few people realize: Sony Direct, the official store of the PlayStation brand, offers free fast shipping on the PS5 consoles, accessories and games when you’re a PlayStation Plus subscriber.

If you’re lucky enough to snag a Sony Direct PS5 queue invite email, then you’ll get your console in one or two days instead of having to wait for slowing shipping that can take up to a week. So paying $45 with this PlayStation Plus discount code may help you get your PS5 Disc or PS5 Digital Edition console a bit faster from Sony Direct.

Is there a PlayStation Plus free trial?

Yes, there’s a 14-day PlayStation Plus free trial for brand new PlayStation accounts in the United States and other countries, so it won’t work for your existing account if you’re already subscribed. If you don’t see this option on the PS Plus menu on your PlayStation 5 or PlayStation 4 console, you may have already signed up.

If you do see this option, you can pay through a credit card or PayPal, according to Sony. However, know that you’ll auto-renew with PlayStation Plus at full price and you may get charged more money than if you were to have used the above PS Plus discount code.

Does PS Plus work with PSVR and PSVR 2?

Yes, PS Plus works with PSVR, and while PSVR 2 pre-order date news hasn’t come our way just yet, it’ll likely work the same as any PS5 game using PlayStation Plus: enable online multiplayer and offer PlayStation Plus free games in virtual reality monthly. We have seen a few PSVR games offered for free through PS Plus over the last 12 months, but nothing in 2022.

My theory is that Sony is holding any more free PSVR games from PS Plus even though it has a nice back catalog – and waiting for the PSVR 2 launch date. A lot of PSVR sleeper hits were on PS4, and they’ll be attractive once again when the PSVR 2 release date comes about and Sony wants to push a higher-priced enhanced PS Plus membership.

How will PlayStation Plus Premium change things?

The PlayStation Plus Premium release date in the US is June 13, and that’s when Sony will merge PS Plus and PlayStation Now. Both PS Plus Premium and PS Plus Extra will offer games on demand (you can view 127 of 740 titles that are on the newly revealed PlayStation Plus Premium games list), it seems worth it, but can double your price.

The good news is that your PlayStation Plus membership will convert and you’ll still save $15 on June 13. You’ll get PlayStation Plus Essential (the new $60 base tier of PS Plus), and can upgrade to the higher tiers thereafter. So little changes and that’s a good thing for everyone who wants to use this $15 off PlayStation Plus discount code.
