Sony has announced that previously announced 100GB cloud storage upgrade is now live for all PS Plus members. This was revealed back in last month when Sony announced PS Plus games for February 2019.
Earlier, the cloud storage assigned to each PS Plus subscriber was only 10GB which was too low as most of the players were using the same profile since PS3 era. Now the storage allocated to each profile has been increased to 100 GB.
This is a very good step by Sony because just like games are getting bigger in size, their saved files are also getting bigger in size due to which most of the players were nearing their 10GB allowed cloud storage.

As you can see that the announcement was made recently so this means that all players now have access to the 100GB cloud storage for their saved files. This cloud storage can be used to store PS3, PS Vita and PS4 saved files and can be downloaded to any console where they sign in thus allowing them to continue their progress on the go.
You can check your current storage by signing in your PS4 console and heading to the PS4 Plus tab. At the menu that opens, look in the top left and you should be able to see how much space you are currently using from your total allocated space.
Before the update rolled out, I was consuming around 60% of my space but now after the update it has dropped down to less than 10% which just shows that we are now safe for at least 2 more generations of PS consoles unless the future saved files are in GBs.
Let us know in the comments section below about what do you think about Sony’s decision to increase the cloud storage to a decent enough 100GB.
