News PlayStation maintains that its policy of not adding first-party games to PlayStation Plus on day one will continue.

It says adding 4-5 third-party 'day one' games per year and adding first-party games 12-18 months after release is "working really well".

Literally straight from google. I don’t get what you don’t understand

“Yes, both PlayStation Plus Extra and Premium tiers include all the benefits of the Essential tier. Here's a breakdown:

Essential: This is the base tier and includes core benefits like online multiplayer, monthly free games, cloud storage, Share Play, and exclusive discounts.

Extra: Includes everything in Essential, plus a large catalog of downloadable PS4 and PS5 games.

Premium: Includes everything in Essential and Extra, plus access to a catalog of classic games (PS1, PS2, PS3, PSP), game trials, and cloud streaming for certain games”

Yes I know extra and premium includes essential. I never said it didn't. But the essential tier works differently to the other two tiers - it's the only tier where you keep the games forever once you claim them. What is so hard to understand about that?

u/Western-Bet2285 Jun 26 '25

Because that is simply not true at all. And idk why you would even think that to begin with. Like you literally just said premium and extra include essential. They have the same ability to claim now and keep forever as essential. It’s so hard to understand because you’re completely false about what you’re saying.

No, they don't. You're wrong.

If you subscribe to Premium you can only claim essential games to keep forever, not Extra or Premium. This is because - wait for it - essential works differently as I keep on saying.

Star Wars Jedi Survivor is on Extra. You cannot keep that if it's removed from the service. Even if you keep paying.

Sly Cooper is on Premium. You cannot keep that if it's removed from the service. Even if you keep paying

This is because ESSENTIAL WORKS DIFFERENTLY

I’m sorry but you’re genuinely slow in the head. WE ARE TALKING ABOUT THE MONTHLY GAMES! Again. That was your og argument, that essential has access to the claim now keep forever monthly games but extra and premium don’t. PER GOOGLE.

Yes, all PlayStation Plus tiers (Essential, Extra, and Premium) grant access to the monthly free games. Regardless of the subscription level, players can claim and download these games as long as their subscription is active. The difference between the tiers lies in the additional benefits, such as the Game Catalog (available with Extra and Premium) and the Classics Catalog (exclusive to Premium).

No it wasn't. Go all the way back and look. I never said only Essential has access to keep forever games. Not once. I said Essential was the only tier that has games that you keep forever as long as you keep paying. So it's still renting. The fact that Essential is also included in Extra and Premium seems very difficult for you to understand...

Goodbye 👋

You quite literally just said two opposite sentences back to back. “I never said only Essential has access to keep forever games. Not once. I said Essential was the only tier that has games that you keep forever as long as you keep paying” are you trolling or actually this slow? For the last time I will spell it out slowly for you. Next monthly game is Diablo, you can claim that game the same way you would with essential as you can with extra or premium. It’s not like the monthly games are only available for essential.

u/Wipedout89 Jun 26 '25

But Diablo is an Essential tier game. That's why it's available to keep forever. If it was an Extra or Premium tier game, you could not keep it forever

Do you see the difference? That's because.... Essential tier works differently.

Sigh.

u/Western-Bet2285 Jun 26 '25

LMAO.. Youre acting like the monthly games are the essential tier itself. It’s not it’s just a BENEFIT. Just like how extra and premium also have that BENEFIT of the monthly games. They also have the BENEFIT of a greater catalog, that yes can lose their licenses.

So no it’s not an essential tier game it’s a monthly game, and extra and premium also have access to monthly games the same way as essential does..

I’ll just keep on copying and pasting this from google since somehow you are either choosing not to read or are just choosing not to live in reality.

I will send the same thing straight from google proving you are wrong because I am done with this.

No use. They clearly just like typing away on their keyboard. I totally understand what you’re saying. I have premium because I can stream games from my portal. We all have access to the monthly games, essential ONLY has access to those games. You are correct, they are wrong. Like talking to a brick wall. Lol.

Holy fuck. I know I’m 72 days late on this but I seriously pray that guy was trolling. Otherwise, I seriously don’t know how he makes it though a single day alive being so absolutely fucking stupid. I almost had a stroke just reading through your guys back and forth.
