PS Plus is a major part of the PlayStation ecosystem, but if you are looking for a change, this is how to cancel PS Plus or change your subscription to a different tier.

PlayStation users have had PS Plus since 2010, however it's been far more prominent since the launch of the PS4 when it was made a required purchase if you'd like to play games online. PS Plus then took a major turn last year, splitting itself off into three tiers:

PS Plus Essential – the classic version of PS Plus, online play and three free games a month
PS Plus Extra – everything in Essential plus access to the PS Plus Game Catalogue
PS Plus Premium – everything in Extra plus access to the Classics Catalogue and Game Trials

Considering the recent PS Plus price increase back in September, we're sure more than a few people are looking at how to cancel PS Plus, or at the very least change what tier they subscribe to. We've got you covered on how to do that.
