Can I get PS Plus for free?
If you're looking online for a PS Plus code generator, unfortunately no legitimate keygen exists.
When you search for a PS Plus code generator on Google, many of the alleged tools you need to download to get a free code do not work.

If anywhere is offering free or extremely cheap PS Plus codes, again they are less than likely to be legitimate. Considering PS Plus costs around £50 a year, if you sellers offering a code for a significant amount lower, then it is likely it is either a scam or the code has been stolen.

The closest thing you can get to 'free PS Plus' is a seven-day free trial offered by PlayStation for all users.
