PlayStation Plus Premium members can now watch Sony films

Sony has begun denoting which games are streamable with PlayStation Plus Premium, via a new logo on the console’s user interface.

Sony has launched a PlayStation Direct promotion which knocks up to $30 / £30 / €30 off the price when purchasing two eligible PlayStation 5 products.

October 2023’s PlayStation Plus Game Catalogue and Classics titles have been made available to subscribers.

Sony has begun rolling out cloud streaming for PS5 titles for PlayStation Plus Premium subscribers, starting with Japan. It’s targeting an October 23rd release in Europe and an October 30th launch in North America.

PlayStation Plus Premium members will finally be able to take advantage of PlayStation 5 cloud streaming when the feature becomes widely available later this month. 

Starting today, we’re taking a step forward in cloud gaming by rolling out our PS5 cloud streaming feature for PlayStation Plus Premium members. This includes supported PS5-native games available through the PlayStation Plus Games Catalog* and Game Trials, as well as supported digital PS5 titles you own. 

Sony is set to launch the PS5 cloud streaming service for PlayStation Plus Premium members before the end of October.

Sony has announced that PS5 cloud streaming will be launching for all PS Plus Premium subscribers later this month, giving remote access to full fat PlayStation 5 games from the PS Plus Game Catalog, support for Game Trials, as well as a selection of games that are owned by members.

Sony is launching cloud streaming for the PS5 console, later this month. The feature will be available to PS Plus Premium — highest-tier — members only, letting them stream select Game Catalog titles like Spider-Man: Miles Morales, Horizon Forbidden West, Ghost of Tsushima, and more, without having to download or actually own them. Unfortunately, it's getting a staggered rollout, first launching in Japan, Europe, and North American regions, promising ‘hundreds' of PS5 games in the future. The company confirmed the addition and testing of cloud streaming in June, as part of its pivot towards the technology, further solidified by its PlayStation Portal handheld device.

Gotham Knights leads the pack of new titles coming to the PlayStation Plus Extra and Deluxe/ Premium game catalog, this month. Starting October 17, all higher-tier PS Plus members can hop onto their Batcycles and ride around the streets of Gotham City, beating up all kinds of volatile criminals in the hopes of unmasking the enigmatic Court of Owls. Players can switch between Batgirl, Robin, Nightwing, and the Red Hood throughout the story to investigate Batman/ Bruce Wayne's death, and build out their character via a gear system. Gotham Knights wasn't nicely received at launch due to a myriad of performance issues across console and PC, in addition to having a repetitive gameplay loop. It will be available on the PS5 only.

Earlier this year, Sony promised they would launch PS5 cloud streaming for PlayStation Plus Premium members sometime this year, and now they’ve revealed the new feature will be arriving this month. Streaming games to PS4 or PC won’t be supported yet, so some may question the utility, but it will allow you to keep SDD space clear while testing out PS Plus titles. The streaming tech also sounds fairly advanced, allowing you to play at up to 4K and 60fps with HDR. Here’s a rundown of key features…

Sony is targeting the middle and end of October.
