JAKARTA - The PlayStation version of the Game Pass feature, which is named “Spartacus”, is rumored to be on the air soon. According to information from Bloomberg, Sony will introduce this service next week, while releasing more detailed information such as categories, subscription fees and so on.
Spartacus is known to have a string of hit games, and will officially be merging PlayStation Plus with PlayStation Now, Sony's cloud streaming service.
It is reported that, there will be plans to offer multiple tiers of service. The first tier will include the same benefits as PlayStation Plus including free online play and monthly games.
The more expensive tier will give access to a game library similar to Game Pass. Meanwhile, in the third most expensive tier, PlayStation will include legacy games from PS1 to PS3, and PSP to its library.
Sony is clearly exploring new opportunities for this generation. Along with an increasing presence in PC gaming, PlayStation recently acquired Haven Entertainment Studios and Bungie with plans to introduce more live service games to follow its single player title.
Adding a subscription service to compete with Xbox Game Pass means PlayStation is increasingly looking at broader industry trends for new opportunities.
However, until now Sony has not provided an official clarification regarding the rumors circulating, so the truth cannot be ascertained.
