7.9 million users are signed up to PlayStation Plus, a figure Sony said was a factor behind the success of the company’s games division last quarter. Chief Financial Officer and Executive Vice President Kenichiro Yoshida divulged the subscriber count during Sony’s investors call, following its earnings release last week.
When asked about the PlayStation division’s prolific second quarter which saw an 83.2 percent year-on-year improvement in revenue, Yoshida first put down the momentum to Destiny and FIFA 15, noting both games contributed “quite significantly.” He then added that “at the same time” the PS Plus subscription service had reached “7.9 million members.”
