| Free tier | 100 GB for PS5 saves and 100 GB for PS4 saves, so 200 GB total, plus a hard limit of 1,000 PS4 save files. Requires an active PS Plus subscription unit GiB; metered on stored-bytes |
|---|
| Price | Bundled with PS Plus Essential at about USD 79.99/yr; 100 GB is not purchasable separately |
|---|
| Limits | - per-object-cap 1,000 PS4 save files source
- write-gated (binding) uploads happen from the console UI and need a PSN-authenticated console source
|
|---|
| Binding | write-gated 200 GB on a paid subscription, but the gate that matters is that the only client is a console: there is no path to read the bytes from a server. |
|---|
| Identity | email a PSN account and a paid subscription |
|---|
| Egress | Console-mediated only. There is no HTTP API, so there is no egress path at all |
|---|
| Per-object cap | 1,000 PS4 save files; no per-file byte cap published |
|---|
| Retention | While the subscription is active. No retention clock published |
|---|
| Interface | unknown |
|---|
| Tooling | none documented. PS4 save decryption is a separate jailbreak scene and not a storage API |
|---|
| Composes with | Not chainable. Even filled to 200 GB the bytes are opaque save blobs retrievable only by a PS5 or PS4, so there is no read path to build on |
|---|
| Reliability | The read path is console-only, which is the upload-open and read-gated failure in its purest form: a write quota with no programmatic read is not storage |
