It is very far from the time when the Xbox Game Pass was a largely dispensable service because of its small catalog of games, and especially dated games! Today, Microsoft’s proposal has become a must-have for casual and regular gamers. Of course, the competition cannot remain indifferent to the success of the service that counted 25 million subscribers in January.
Phil Spencer speaks out on potential PlayStation ‘Game Pass’
Shadow Warrior 3 arrivera day one dans le… PlayStation Now !
Although clearly not a direct competitor to Xbox Game Pass, PlayStation Now continues to chart its course by strengthening its offer. If Sony has relied heavily on the games offered to PlayStation Plus members in recent months, the Japanese giant is today sending a very strong message to players regarding its other service.
Indeed, PlayStation Now will be rewarded with Shadow Warrior 3 the day of its release, March 1st! A first for the service which never directly integrates big games.
The beginnings of the Spartacus project?
Last December, Bloomberg mentioned the existence of a subscription to counter the Xbox Game Pass. The latter would encompass PlayStation Now and PlayStation Plus and would consist of three different levels.
- The first would maintain the current PlayStation Plus advantages such as making online gaming accessible or offering several titles monthly.
- The second would make available a larger catalog of PS4 games and potentially current-gen games.
- The third would be a retro vault consisting of games ranging from PS1 to PS3 to PSP while providing access to trial versions of newer games.
The arrival of Shadow Warrior 3 in the service on the day of its release clearly aims to strengthen Sony’s positioning on its proposal. It will be interesting to see in the coming months if the Japanese manufacturer continues to supply its catalog in this way.
Anyway, the game will be available on March 1 next on Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5 and PC. While waiting for its release, you can enjoy this long video of explosive gameplay.
