PlayStation Plus Extra and Premium's announcements of monthly new games are being changed in some territories, and players aren't happy about it
Eurogamer.net • • technology
Key Points:
- PlayStation Plus Extra and Premium have shifted from releasing all monthly games at once to a staggered rollout spread over several weeks, starting with June's lineup.
- This new release model is being implemented not only in the US and UK but also in Japan, aligning more closely with Xbox Game Pass's approach.
- The staggered schedule has sparked significant criticism from subscribers, who feel it diminishes excitement and is inconvenient, especially when games become available late in the month.
- Some users argue the change is anti-consumer, particularly for those with expiring subscriptions who may miss out on certain titles, and fear it could lead to a reduction in available games overall.
- The negative feedback is prominently visible on platforms like the r/PlayStationPlus subreddit, where many express frustration over Sony's handling of the June game releases.
