If you're a fan of IGN, the IGN Plus membership is the best way to make your experience even better. For a limited time, annual memberships are only $29.99, saving you 50%. That equates to only $2.49 a month for the rest of 2025 and the majority of 2026! From free games to an ad-free experience, there's something for everyone. Below we've outlined everything IGN Plus has to offer, as well as how to sign up.

IGN Plus Instantly Levels Up Your IGN Experience

Right away, the biggest perk of IGN Plus is an ad-free experience on IGN. That means no more banner ads, pop-ups, or video ads when you read articles, check out guides, or watch trailers. Plus, this ad-free experience continues across other IGN sites. Additionally, you also get free games available monthly. If you're always on the lookout for new games to add to that ever-growing backlog, this is a great way to check out new games you might have never heard of otherwise.

For platinum trophy hunters and completionists, IGN Plus can make your life easier, too! Your membership includes access to MapGenie Pro, which allows you to check out interactive game maps and tracking tools as much as you'd like. If you're hunting down collectibles or tracking down an NPC, this can save you dozens of hours.

And for collectors, IGN Plus gives you immediate access to exclusive discounts at the IGN Store. You can save on merch, collectibles, game bundles, and more. These discounts are often significant, typically sitting at ~15%. Even the purchase of one major figure can quickly offset the cost of IGN Plus.

Overall, IGN Plus is the best way to support IGN and the content you love for years to come. It's packed with value for every gamer, whether you're a fan of IGN content, a collector, a trophy hunter, or even just a gamer. Each membership helps IGN continue to deliver high-quality articles, videos, reviews, and guides for readers all around the world.

How to Sign Up for IGN Plus

1. Go to IGN’s subscription page and choose a plan - monthly or yearly (annual typically gives the best value per month).
2. Sign up and link your account - once active, the benefits (ad-free, discounted store access, MapGenie, free games) should be available immediately.
3. Browse IGN as usual. Watch for monthly free games / giveaways, check MapGenie for new maps, and keep an eye on IGN Store for member-only deals.
4. If you’re not sure - try it for a few months. Many people find that cancelled subscriptions still return when they want those perks again.
