With PlayStation Plus your game data is in safe hands. As a member you are entitled to back up and store your PlayStation 3 game save data online to make sure you have peace of mind when returning to your titles.

You can also transfer this game save data to other PlayStation 3 systems, making it easy for you to continue playing where you left off should you be at a friend's house or need to switch systems.

Games

Get your hands on at least four games a month at no extra charge.

Each month, use your PlayStation Plus membership to download a selection of games from PlayStation Store, including PlayStation Network titles, minis and PS one classics. In addition, you can download premium avatars and dynamic themes, many of which are exclusively for members only. Games, avatars, themes and all the other PlayStation Plus content are updated each month so there is always something new to enjoy.

Members also get access to exclusive discounts on PlayStation Store content, so make the most of them as these will change each month as well.

Finally, wherever possible PlayStation Plus members are included in selected demos and beta trials before they go on general release so you can be the one to tell all your mates about the next big game they simply must have.

All in all, with games, avatars and themes worth at least £200* per year, even before the other benefits kick in, this service is great value for money

Full Game Trial

Try before you buy on selected PlayStation Network and Blu-ray Disc titles.

This premium feature for PlayStation Plus members gives you so much more than existing demos on PlayStation Store. With Full Game Trial, you can download the full game and play it as if you owned it for one hour before you decide if you want to buy it. So you can check out the online modes, play against friends or anything else you'd normally do with a game for the whole hour, then decide if you want to buy it.

You can download two games a month as a Full Game Trial and if you buy the game at a later date, all your progress from the trial, plus any unlocked trophies will be immediately available so there's no need to start all over again.

Automatic Update

Automatically sync your trophies, receive the latest system software, download game updates and more.

Set your PlayStation 3 to automatically receive the latest PlayStation 3 system software updates and game updates - all sent directly to your PS3 without you having to lift a finger.

No more waiting to play your favourite game because there is a new patch or having to remember when the latest system software update is launched - just let your PS3 do the work. Additionally, with Automatic Update your trophies and game save data will automatically synchronise and save to PlayStation Network.

Simply set the time you want to receive updates and demos and your PS3 will wake up and automatically download everything, ready for when you next want to play.
