Sonyis pullingPlayStationNow cards from retailers across the US and UK in a move that is expected to usher in the announcement of its Xbox Game Pass rival, Spartacus.
The new service will look to combine PlayStation Plus and PlayStation Now into one package, in an attempt to challengeMicrosoft’s current offering of first-party titles being available on Xbox Game Pass day and date with launch, among other benefits. Spartacus is expected to launch sometime in the Spring for both PS5 and PS4.
“Stores have until the close of day Wednesday, January 19th to remove all POS and ESD cards from all customer-facing areas and update their digital bays in line with this week’s upcoming commercial update,” a message to UK game retailers reads.
Earlier inDecember, a report stated that the service would be split into three tiers but remain under the same PlayStation Plus brand with Spartacus simply being the codename for the project. While tier one would remain the same offering as today of online play and free monthly titles, tier two would then add a sizable collection of games. The highest-paid tier would then include demos, the ability to stream games and classic PlayStation games alongside the former benefits.
T3 has reached out to Sony for comment. With rumours circling aPlayStation event in February, this might just be the opportunity Sony takes to officially announce the service.
