PlayStation Now will start its work in the US on January 13

Сервис PlayStation Now начнёт свою работу в США уже 13 января

Many gamers were interested: when Sony finally launches its cloud service PlayStation Now, thanks to which not only owners of Japanese consoles, but also smart TVs, smartphones, tablets and other gadgets will be able to play in the huge library of exclusive PlayStation consoles. It seems that the first step to this Sony will already on January 13, 2015.

Starting January 13, the owners of the PlayStation 4 consoles first will have access to a library consisting of more than 100 games for the previous generation of PlayStation 3 consoles. You ask: why was it simply not to re-release the old games for the new hardware? This is a very long and expensive process, considering that the consoles work on completely different hardware. Developers would have to write their games literally from scratch, and this is not profitable for anyone.


That's why the PlayStation Now cloud service will allow PS4 owners to play such masterpieces as Heavy Rain, God of War: Ascension, Uncharted and other great games. More than a hundred games will be available to subscribers of the service, starting from the first day of its operation. Will the servers of Sony with the influx of people willing to touch the classics, even if it's only about American users?

But the most important question now is the question of the price that the user must pay to access this gaming library. And the price was not so great, if you think for a minute. Only $ 19.99 will cost you a subscription for 1 month PlayStation Now. 1200 rubles per month for round the clock access to hundreds of wonderful games? It's not so sad, considering that one PS3 game disc in stores still costs 1000 rubles and more.

If you prefer to buy everything in bulk, then for three months you can pay only 44.99 dollars, that is, about $ 15 per month (about 900 rubles). Quite a good offer for those who do not want to bother buying CDs or PS3 consoles. By the way, every new user of the PlayStation Now service will receive a free 7 days trial. If he likes the service - he will be able to extend it on a fee basis. You can see a short video demonstrating the advantages of the new service:

Of course, only two questions arise automatically before Russian users. First: when will the service work in Russia? And the second question: what kind of fast and stable Internet is needed in order for the game to respond adequately to the player's actions. I do not have any answers to these questions, but I believe that Sony will come up with something to solve problems with Russian Internet channels, which often leave much to be desired. It is important that in our country this service also starts sooner or later, and you can play games on any smart devices. It remains only to wait a little.
