You all know that with subscription plans PlayStation and Xbox There are usually tricks that allow us to get many months of service without paying the full rates with very little money, although it is also true that in recent times, both Sony and Microsoft have tried to plug those holes so that too many users do not slip through. Although there are those who say they have achieved something never seen around PlayStation Plus.
Or at least that is what a user claims to have achieved practically the impossible, which is to secure access to PlayStation Plus for a very long period of time. Nothing more and nothing less than 24 years in what is, for many, a fake like a castle since it is not possible (they say), no matter how much trickery we use, to ensure such a long period of access to a service that we do not know what it will be like in the middle of the century.
PS Plus paid until 2048
It was through a publication in reddit where we have been able to see and learn the details of what the user claims is the purchase of a very long period of access to PS Plus. So much so that in the screenshots attached in your publication you can see how the next renewal will be $159.99, and a period that lasts until July 6, 2048 is guaranteed (surely then there will be no DualSenses). But do you know exactly how he came to do it?
Their explanations are as follows: «I decided to accumulate PS Plus subscriptions until 2048 due to the absurd price increases in recent years. I figure I’ll probably be gaming for most of my life, so I’d save quite a bit of money. First I bought subscriptions Essentials and then I updated them to Premium for $199. I just wanted to share it because I think you’ll like it.”
Needless to say, the responses have not been long in coming and have been divided into two different types. Some question that in that year PlayStation Plus continues to exist as such and, therefore, they do not see the point in renewing for such a long period, and others go to the heart of the matter, doubting that something like this is possible without there being some type of deadline imposed by Sony to avoid these practices.
Doing the math, the numbers don’t come out
And in the case of sony There has never been an Xbox Game Pass for 1 euro as was the case with Microsoft in the past, so if we multiply the annual prices by the years contracted, it will surely have dropped a lot of money in one go. It is evident that the explanation is that this user, who has plenty of money, has decided to buy 12-month subscriptions at that unit price plus the extra Premium until he gets 24 in a row that has taken him until the year 2048.
Surely everything is true and that he has decided to spend the nearly 3,800 dollars that those 24 years of subscription would cost Premium But do you think it is a good measure, if only to ensure the price today from the ups and downs that the future may bring? Now we just have to wait and see if sony It respects that period that you have paid or proceeds to a refund. In case the example spreads.
