| Zippy6 said: The price of day one games going from $20/month all the way up to $30/month on console is going to be a VERY difficult pill to swallow for many. |
The other two tiers are actually better now as they include cloud gaming, more games, and other perks for the same price. But yeah Ultimate going up to $30/month is a big jump even if it does include new perks like Ubisoft+ Classics and Fortnite Crew, and now 1440p cloud gaming.
The thing to note is users can earn points towards the Store. $25/year for Essential, $50/year for Premium, and $100/year for Ultimate. So that can help offset some of the increased cost for Ultimate if you play enough.
