PlayStation Plus Premium subscribers will now enjoy the new perk of streaming select native PS5 games, starting this month. Cloud streaming will be accessible for supported titles within the PS Plus Game Catalog, game trials, and personal user libraries.
Supported PS5 titles for cloud streaming include Ghost of Tsushima, Marvel’s Spider-Man: Miles Morales, Horizon: Forbidden West, Mortal Kombat 11, and Saints Row IV. Additionally, users can stream game trials for titles such as Hogwarts Legacy, The Calisto Protocol, and The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt. DLC and add-ons will also be available for streaming.
Games streamed through the cloud will offer output up to 4K at 60 fps, dependent on your internet speed, and feature complete DualSense and Tempest 3D audio support. Sony has ambitious plans to have “hundreds” of titles support this feature in the future.
The rollout of cloud streaming will take place in phases, commencing on the following dates:
- Japan: October 17
- Europe: October 23
- North America: October 30
It’s worth noting that the Premium tier is the highest-priced among the three PS Plus subscription options, and Sony recently increased the annual membership prices. The effectiveness of cloud streaming may vary depending on the quality of your internet connection, but it’s a promising addition for members.
