PlayStation will continue withholding its first-party games from PlayStation Plus on launch day, despite Xbox offering day-one releases through Game Pass. Nick Maguire, PlayStation’s vice president of global services, told Game File the company remains committed to its current approach of adding first-party titles to the subscription service 12 to 18 months after release. “We’ve sort of stayed true to our strategy across the board, where we’re not looking to put games in day and date,” Maguire said.
I mean, yeah. It actively devalues new releases. Gamepass is great in the same way Spotify is great, for the consumer and service provider.
Even then it’s a short term gamble for the provider.
Nazi bootlickers!
Me: “12 to 18 months? Thats not bad. I can wait”
Then I realize I haven’t had PS+ since PS3 days. And in general don’t buy many games.
So I guess wait isn’t the right term. I guess it’s that I’ll refrain.
Xbox would do the same if they weren’t in third place.
