PlayStation Now is getting a price drop and 'marquee' games

PlayStation Now, the cloud gaming subscription service from Sony, is set to get a permanent price drop and even more games added to its already expansive roster.

Subscribers to PlayStation Now have access to over 800 PlayStation 2, 3, and 4 games, which can be played on both PlayStation 4 and Windows PC thanks to the power of cloud gaming.

As of today, October 1st, the service is seeing its subscription prices lowered. You can see a list of new prices, listed per country, compared to the old prices below.

Note: If there’s no previous price listed, that means that subscription tier previously didn’t exist.

• USA:
  • $9.99 monthly, previously $19.99
  • $24.99 quarterly, previously $44.99
  • $59.99 yearly, previously $99.99
• Canada:
  • $12.99 monthly, previously $19.99
  • $34.99 quarterly, previously $44.99

Along with this price slash, four new marquee games have been added to the service today. Each month, PlayStation Now will receive a new selection of games that will only be available for a limited period of time – hence the term ‘marquee games’.

The new marquee games for this period include God of War, Grand Theft Auto V, inFAMOUS Second Son, and Uncharted 4: A Thief’s End.

All four games will be available to stream and download from October 1st, 2019, until January 2nd, 2020.
