Pricing matters a lot in this, so if the first tier really is just Plus at a new price, it's actually worse. But they could also open that up if they do this. Locking cloud save behind $60 a year kinda sucks, but it sucks more if the tiers are set up so that now you need to pay $120 a year for cloud saves. And the monetization gets a little tricky given that Plus is required for cloud saves whereas MS doesn't require subscriptions for cloud saves, so they can be more aggressive in what they offer and charge. Seriously, this has been a long time coming, and I'm amazed it's taken them so long, though I do worry exactly what shape it will take and how the value will line up. Oh noez, does that mean we won't get free demos of iffy online games in exchange for money anymore? And finally, the third tier throws in "extended" demos and game streaming, along with access to PS1, PS2, PS3, and PSP games.

The second tier adds a large selection of PS4 games - with PS5 games being added down the line. The first includes the existing PS Plus subscription - that's access to online multiplayer, cloud saves, and the monthly games. It also claims that this new service is currently set to be split into three tiers. Again, it all sounds very similar to Microsoft's massively popular Game Pass model. The service is apparently codenamed 'Spartacus', and the gist is that by slapping PS Plus and PS Now together, subscribers will have access to a huge catalogue of games. Citing trusted sources and leaked documents, the report states that this service is set to launch around Spring 2022, and could also result in Sony phasing out PS Now as its own thing. Sony is planning to combine PlayStation Plus and PlayStation Now to create a new PlayStation subscription service that can compete with Xbox Game Pass, according to a fresh report from Bloomberg.
