Sony’s PlayStation has been one of the giant players in the gaming industry. After dominating the field, the company re-introduced PlayStation Plus in 2022, providing PS5 and PS4 users with essential online services, like multiplayer, cloud save storage, and tons of downloadable games.
With the new exclusive service, the gamers had three different tiers with monthly and annual payment options.
Recently PlayStation Plus has recently undergone a transformation which has surely proven to be an incredible value for money-feature. However, the question of canceling the service has been asked by many, and here is the answer.
PlayStation users can cancel their subscription anytime through a PS 5 or PS 4. They will have to cancel it within the 14-day cancellation period to get the refund. Failing to cancel within the mentioned time will lead the service to continue until the date the next payment is due or when the service will then end.
