“The improvement in PS Plus…”: As Xbox Players React to Xbox Game Pass’ Price Hike, PS Plus Continues to Get Better in the Eyes of Fans
It seems like PS Plus is the new King of the Hill in game subscription services.
Sony and Microsoft have always been rivals in the gaming space. With PlayStation and Xbox constantly looking to gain more traction than the other with gamers all over the world, the two companies have often tried to innovate in various ways in order to stay ahead of each other and other contenders like Steam and Nintendo.
However, the current generation of consoles has seen Sony take a definitive edge over the Xbox in terms of the value it brings to players. And it looks like Microsoft is about to lose a lot more of its fans to Sony if their subscription services are any indication.
Xbox Game Pass Gets More Expensive
Recent price hikes on Xbox’s Game Pass subscription service have coincided with an increase in popular titles available to PS Plus subscribers, once again locking the two consoles in a battle for value that has seen PlayStation gain the upper hand.

PlayStation’s PS Plus Gets a New Boost in Players’ Eyes
The recent addition of several new titles to free games that PS Plus subscribers get to enjoy seems to have pushed many Game Pass subscribers over to Sony’s service, with the balance of price and value giving Sony a distinct edge.
The post below is an example of how Microsoft continues to lose the console war with its current generation of consoles.
With titles that have a lot of mass appeal to many players, it seems like the PS Plus catalog of free games has now overtaken Xbox Game Pass in terms of overall value to subscribers – especially when it comes to popular titles like Remnant II.
Some players hope that Sony can maintain its momentum while continuing to deliver its regular batch of free monthly titles to PS Plus subscribers.
Another user highlighted the fact that PS Plus is the best option players have if they want to experience the magic of Sony’s console-exclusive titles – which is a detail that simply cannot be ignored.
It’s evident that Microsoft has some thinking to do in terms of its current position among the major players in the gaming space. Despite powerful consoles and a plethora of advantages with regards to its approach to cross-platform gaming, it has somehow fallen behind Sony and the rest of the competition in recent times.
While Xbox fans would certainly hope that the company can reverse its fortunes in the near future, PlayStation fans can rest easy for the moment knowing that they are currently enjoying the best generation of their favorite console to date.
