If I interpret this correctly, all these PS4 games will be available as free games on PS5 at launch for PS+ members. Doesn't say how long they will be free (perhaps for a long time, not just 1 month?) and whether you keep them forever (as long as you remain member).

Most likely work the same way as how it is now, games will remain in library as long you're a member. But I'm not sure how long they'll be offered as free download. Either the standard 1 month, or maybe slightly longer.

This is much better than what we have now though, which is usually only 2 or 3 games per month (Assuming there's no price increase for PS+ Subscription in the future).

Currently only have this info, taken from PlayStation Blog article.

"For PlayStation Plus members, we’ll have a special new offering on PS5 – the PlayStation Plus Collection. PS5 owners with PS Plus will be able to download and play a curated library of PS4 games that defined the generation, like Batman Arkham Knight, Bloodborne, Fallout 4, God of War, Monster Hunter: World, Persona 5 and many more. The PS Plus Collection will be an added benefit to the existing PS4 benefits that PS Plus members receive for a single subscription price."

not necessarily. nobody even considers a xbox in sg

Sent from Xiaomi POCOPHONE F1 using GAGT
i get that Xbox brand doesnt usually appeal to Asian countries, but Microsoft's offering to the console and PC market is actually something else.

plus the cheaper console is a danger to Sony's sales strategy. Sony still considers console sales number as a mark of success/failure.

The worst news is the price increase of some (not all) AAA games to USD $69.99. Means it might cost around $90+ per game in Singapore.

actually console games have always been cheap (the price has remained for a long time now, yet development costs has increased)

the price increase has been long due~

and console games have always been more expensive than PC games~

Unless they tell me digital games are half the price of physical copies, I’ll still stick with disc version.

Pretty excited after watching the trailer. I hope they offer the entire collection as long as a PS+ member. But then, could be just a limited offer to standard 1 month/first few months to attract more people to buy PS5 initially. If it's entire collection put out there forever, I think they would have already put in trailer "access the collection anytime as long as maintain PS+ membership" to make people really happy. Let's wait for more details.

Needless to say, we need more info on this.
The way I see this is a "games vault to access" rather than a "add to my library" type. A PS+/games pass combo. A long term thing.

wow certainly did not expect spiderman, sackboy and horizon forbidden west to be cross gen games. :s22:

Tbh, I'm not totally surprise, considering these probably started developing a long time ago and miles morales is brand as an expansion (standalone) to the 1st spider-man.

It would be interesting however, how xbox's fanboy going to spin this.

i would always go for disc drive.

and continue with disc buying

reason is simple. if i dun like the game i bought, i can sell it away immediately without any kind of restriction or problematic transaction

I'm so old school(or just old), I still appreciate physical cover art. Digital ones just don't work for me.:s13:
