(SPOT.ph) Heads up, Disney+ users! The streaming home of Disney, Pixar, Marvel, Star Wars, and National Geographic will be rolling out an updated pricing plan this month.
Starting April 24, users will have to put out an extra P90 to P150 to retain a Disney+ subscription. The current Mobile Plan at P159 a month will undergo some feature changes—like upgrading the video quality to Full HD—to become a Basic Plan at P249 a month.
That said, Mobile Plan will cease to exist come April 24.
The Premium Plan faces a more significant increase, now at P519 a month to be able to stream in 4K Ultra HD for four concurrent screens with up to 10 mobile devices. For comparison, the original price of the Premium Plan is currently at P369 a month.
Paying annually will save users over 30%, with the Basic Plan priced at P1,990 and the Premium Plan at P4,190.

What to know about Disney+ new subscription plans starting April 24
In light of this change, existing subscribers will have the option to either upgrade or cancel their plans.
Users who subscribed before April 24 will see the updated pricing in their billing cycle beginning on or after that date. It's important to note that if your billing cycle ends before April 24 but your payment is processed on or after April 24 due to earlier payment failure, the new rates will apply.
You can check when your next billing date is on the Disney+ Payment History page.
The update is part of Disney+'s commitment to providing a wide range of content, including "global branded content, award-winning Asia-Pacific originals, and high-quality storytelling."
