Explained simply
PlayStation Plus is a subscription service for PlayStation console owners that provides online gaming features and access to regularly discounted games. The PS Store is Sony's digital marketplace where players purchase and download games. Sony periodically runs large sales events throughout the year, with the Summer Sale being one of the biggest shopping periods.
PlayStation Plus members receive various perks as part of their subscription, and early access to sales events is one of them. Rather than all players accessing the sale at the same time, subscribers get a head start to buy discounted games before everyone else. This exclusive early window is part of what makes maintaining a PlayStation Plus membership valuable for regular game purchasers.
