SCEE president and CEO Jim Ryan said in March that PS Plus will have a prominent role on PS4. "We're very happy with the service that we've been able to offer," he commented. "It's been really well received - the value is quite extraordinary and the take-up has trebled over the course of the past year.

"We definitely see that as a core part of the way forward. We're not yet in a position to disclose our plans for the future of PlayStation Plus, but there will definitely be a prominent role to play for it in the PlayStation 4 landscape."
