Does PlayStation Plus Carry Over From PS4 to PS5?
Do you need a new PlayStation Plus subscription if you're upgrading?
There can be a lot to think about when upgrading from your PS4 to a PS5. But thankfully, many things can easily be transferred from your old console to your new one without much fuss, including your PS Plus account.
If you've been worrying about getting a new PS Plus account for your PS5 or losing any of your old games, you don't need to. Transferring your account from one console to the other is quick and easy, and you don't have to worry about losing a thing.

The short answer is yes. PlayStation Plus is a subscription that is tethered to your account. So wherever your account goes, your PS Plus subscription will follow. This includes any games you've downloaded, trophies you've earned, and friends you have made on your PS Plus account.

If you are already a PlayStation Plus subscriber on your PS4, you will be on your PS5 as well. The only reason you would have to create a new PS Plus account on your new system is if you never had one to begin with.
