Additionally, with the growing popularity of Xbox Game Pass, many fans expected Sony to make significant changes to PlayStation Plus during the PS5 generation.

The industry has gone through massive changes in these years, as some publishers are now offering their own subscription services that give players access to the ultimate edition of games on day one. Sony earlier revealed that it had 48 million subscribers as of December 31, 2021, but for the most part, PlayStation Plus has remained the same for the last decade or so. This loophole was also quickly shut down, and PS Now memberships are no longer available to purchase.For many players, PlayStation Plus is one of the most popular subscription services in the industry. Many users had already stacked PS Now memberships, after it was announced those with a PS Now account would be upgraded to PS Plus Premium at no extra cost.

It is now believed by some in the PlayStation community that Sony has blocked this to prevent users from further taking advantage of making any savings on the revamped PlayStation Plus service. This is typically common practice when PlayStation Plus codes are discounted during sale events. For example, a user with 12-months left of PlayStation Plus could previously buy another 12-months, stacking their membership to 2-years, even before the subscription expires. Stacking a membership is where a user can use pre-paid cards to redeem an extension to their current membership. Examples of this can also be found on ResetEra forums, with one user being told: "On this case right now you will be unable to add those codes to the account since we have disabled the option to redeem PS Plus codes." IGN was also contacted by a user who reported the exact same line being given to them by support. This is now a widespread issue, with some evidence that Sony support will also not accept the codes.
