There's going to be plenty of people waking up to a brand new PlayStation on Christmas Day!

But if you're new to the Sony world, then the PS Plus service can be pretty daunting.

Here is how to get the most out of it as we enter 2021.

PS Plus January 2021

There are plenty of tricks and trades in order to maximise the service for the best price possible.

Here is what you need to do.

Cheap Subscriptions

For starters, you're going to need a subscription.

The PS Plus subscription allows you to play the online modes on all of your titles, whilst it also grants you access to a range of free games and great discounts.

Make sure that you use up your seven-day free trial before you buy anything, every little helps and all that.

But once your seven-day trial is up, make sure to pick the subscription length that proves the best value for money for your own needs.

• 1 Month: £6.99
• 3 Months: £19.99
• 12 Months: £49.99

Whilst hitting a 12-month subscription straight off the bat may look expensive in the short term, it will save you around £34 compared to paying month by month.

Current Discounts

The best part is, you can begin saving straight away!

PS Plus release three, free titles each month which, once downloaded, can be kept until the end of your subscription for no cost.

The current free games are as follows.

• Rocket Arena
• Worms Rumble
• Just Cause 4

It's not just the free games where you'll save cash, there are plenty of other reasons to invest in a subscription.

• Exclusive Game Content: Member-Only Skins, Cosmetics, Weapons & more
• 100 GB Cloud Storage
• Share Play

Free Weekends

And, if you're still not sure about whether or not PS Plus is right for you, then why not take advantage of one of their free weekends!

The latest free weekend has just ended, having run from Saturday, December 19 until Sunday, December 20.

But there is no doubting that there will be more to come post-Christmas, so make sure you keep an eye on RealSport101 for all the key information.
