Sony’s PlayStation Now service is getting a big update with the arrival of PS4 games to the service. They shared the following on the PlayStation Blog.
As many of you know, PlayStation Now lets you stream hundreds of PS3 games — currently 483 to be exact — to your PS4 and Windows PC.
We’re excited to announce that PS Now’s catalog is set to grow even further, as we’ll be expanding to include a new platform: PlayStation 4 games. All of the games in the service, including PS4 games, will be included with a single PS Now subscription. We’ll share more information as we get closer to launch, so stay tuned.
Also, PS Now uses cloud saves, letting you start a game on PS4 and continue playing on another PS4 or even a Windows PC (or vice versa).
What is interesting about this is that this could actually end up selling more PS4 units than people think. This will give many people on the fence about the PS4, a chance to play the games on PC and see if they like it. I applaud Sony on this and feel they are making the right move.
