“As this is a massive launch effort, we are rolling out the new PlayStation Plus offering in a phased regional approach. In the June timeframe, we'll start with an early launch in a few markets in Asia, followed by North America, Europe, and the rest of the world where PlayStation Plus is offered," said Ryan.
