If the game companies aren't getting paid enough by Microsoft to put their games onto Gamepass, then those game companies are better off not taking the deal from Microsoft and just releasing their game independently. They get paid by Microsoft to put their games on Gamepass, and Microsoft is paying them well enough to do it. In general, the longer the AAA first party games take to be released on PS Plus, the better the value that Gamepass has compared to PS Plus, IMO. I would like to see God of War also released on PS Plus also within one year of its release, and that date is coming soon.

Great game and it gave me more value on PS Plus. I was happy when Horizon Forbidden West was released on PS Plus within one year of its release. But at the minimum, Sony should be releasing their top AAA games onto PS Plus (perhaps Extra or Premium at the very minimum, but on Essential if Sony can afford it) within one year after release.

I understand if Sony can't match the day one releases that Gamepass has, that's fine. You even get games like Wo Long from Team Ninja/Koei Tecmo, on day one of its release, which Microsoft doesn't even own. The fact that XBox and PC Gamepass get day one AAA releases for titles from Microsoft or Microsoft owned companies, is pretty sweet if you have Gamepass. At the same time, Sony needs to step up as well. Legacy Platforms: PS4 - PS3 - PS2 - PS1 - PSP Spoiler GuideĪlternatively, use the redesign spoiler tag found in the toolbar.īusiness is war.
