Is PS Plus Extra or Premium worth it?

It comes down to one honest question: how many of the games you'd actually play are in the catalogue, and what would they cost to buy? If a handful of catalogue games you genuinely want already add up to more than a year of Extra or Premium, the subscription wins for that year. If you only want one or two – or you want to keep them forever – buying outright is usually cheaper and the games stay yours.

That's all this calculator does: it takes the real current PlayStation Store price of each game in your basket, checks which ones are in the catalogue for your region, and compares the buy-it-all total against the yearly sub. No hype, no "lowest ever" claims, no fake urgency – just the numbers for your own list. Want to see what's on offer first?

PS Plus calculator FAQ

Is PS Plus Extra worth it?
It depends entirely on which games you would actually play. Extra is worth it when the catalogue games you want would cost more to buy outright than the yearly sub. Add those games above and the calculator compares their real PlayStation Store prices against a year of Extra for your region.
PS Plus Extra vs buying games - which is cheaper?
For one or two games, buying is almost always cheaper and you keep them forever. The subscription pulls ahead once three or more games you would genuinely play are in the catalogue, because their combined buy price beats the yearly cost. The break-even bar in the verdict shows exactly where you land.
Do you keep games from PS Plus Extra?
No. A subscription is access, not ownership. You can play catalogue games while you subscribe, and you lose access if you cancel or if a game leaves the catalogue. Games you buy outright are yours to keep - that is why the calculator labels each option clearly.
How much is PS Plus Extra and Premium in 2026?
In United States, a 12-month membership is $79.99 for Essential, $134.99 for Extra and $159.99 for Premium. The full per-term breakdown is in the price table above; switch your region from any page footer to see local prices.
