- Price hikes for subscription services in gaming history have become common.
- Due to that, a gamer stacked up 24 years’ worth of PS Plus by spending $2000.
- While this seems like a smart move, there are some concerns that the subscription might not even exist in the next 24 years.
Price hikes of subscription services have been increasing lately, with Xbox being the latest one to follow this trend in the gaming industry. PlayStation also previously increased the price of PSN not once but twice, which started a lot of controversy.
Price hikes have become a common practice, and a gamer has spent $2000 on the PS Plus to get a subscription for 24 years.
Why it matters: It is a given that in the next 24 years, there are going to be multiple price hikes in the subscription services, of course, if they were to still exist, so the user has managed to save a tremendous amount of money.
Lads, I did it. Subscribed to PS Plus until 2048.

A Reddit User, On_Reddit_In-Class, shared this information on the r/PlayStation subreddit. The user mentioned that they have a stacked PS Plus subscription until 2048, which is pretty insane.
I decided to stack PS Plus subscriptions until 2048 because of the absurd price increases in the past few years.

The user seems to think that they will be gaming for the rest of their life, and it is a good investment. If PS Plus stays relevant for such a long period of time, then this user will arguably save a lot of money, but 24 years is an extremely long period, so a lot can be changed in that time.
Many fans in the comments section agree with the perspective that it will surely save some money. However, some aren’t as optimistic and stated that the service might not last that long for 24 more years. This seems like a valid concern, but PSN has been around since 2010, and it is pretty popular now.
So, given Sony doesn’t make any mistakes with its upcoming games and consoles, the PS Plus is here to stay.
