PS4: a subscription service for games


Although it has not been officially presented by Sony, the PlayStation 4 continues to unfold gradually. And it is again Shuhei Yoshida, head of Sony Worldwide Studios, which teaches us that if a party PS4 games will be available on many discs, it is possible to recover the entire catalog of the console's download service line.


"The PS4 will be similar to the PS Vita in the fact that each game will be available for download, and some are also available in disc version," he said in an interview with our colleagues at The Guardian. Yoshida also hinted a subscription service games could also make an appearance, "as soon as the online services will be expanded, then we will have more options to create attractive offers. (...) We could have offers Gold, Silver or Platinum and offer a subscription service when we have more content - especially with technology Gaikai. With a subscription, you have access to thousands of games. "


Sony would think, therefore, the possibility of setting up a subscription service similar to some music services or VOD today. After paying monthly, the player could then have access to a complete catalog of games, in which he could draw without restriction. All these services appear to be largely based on Gaikai, who had suggested that many games on PS4 will go through its Cloud Gaming Technology.
