What is PlayStation Plus?
You'll need a PlayStation Plus membership to play PS4 games online.
On the plus side, membership also gives you access to the PlayStation Plus Instant Game Collection which includes two free games each month that are yours to keep while you're a subscriber.
PlayStation Plus memberships also get you exclusive discounts in sales across the PlayStation Network and lets you upload game saves to the cloud, which is brilliant for backing up your progress in case your console's hard drive fails.
Is it worth getting a PlayStation Plus membership?
If you play games online then PlayStation Plus membership is absolutely worth purchasing, if not essential to your PlayStation experience.
PS Plus membership also has benefits for those who never play online.
A constant roster of new titles to download and play for free will save you far more than the membership costs each month.
