Sony has long been a leader in the gaming industry, and its PS Plus subscription service is no exception. However, while Microsoft’s Xbox Game Pass has been praised for its value proposition, which includes first-day access to new first-party games, Sony has opted to take a different approach.
In an interview with Gamesindustry.biz, Sony’s head of subscriptions, Nick Maguire, explained that the company is “happy with our strategy” of adding older first-party games to PS Plus after they’ve been out for a few months. He added that this strategy has allowed Sony to reach more customers, as many people are still interested in playing these games some time after they have been released.
Maguire also acknowledged that Sony is “continually working out what the right strategy is going forward,” and that the company is “thinking about the role the Plus can play going forward.” However, he stressed that Sony “doesn’t want to compete directly with Game Pass” at this time.

So, what does this mean for PlayStation gamers? This means that, for now, they can expect to continue seeing older first-party games on the PlayStation Plus after they’ve been out for a few months. However, it also means that Sony is open to changing its strategy in the future, and that it is “thinking about the role that Plus can play going forward.”
Only time will tell what the future holds for the PlayStation Plus, but one thing is for sure: Sony is committed to providing its customers with a great gaming experience. Whether that means adding new first-party games to PS Plus on day one or continuing to add older games after a few months, Sony is determined to give its customers the best possible value for their money.
In the meantime, PlayStation gamers can enjoy the many great games already available on PlayStation Plus. The game catalog is constantly being updated with new titles, so there’s always something new to play. And, with third-party releases like Stray and Techia, the PS Plus is becoming an even more attractive option for gamers.
So, if you’re looking for a great way to expand your gaming library, the PS Plus is the perfect option. With a wide variety of games to choose from, you’re sure to find something you’ll love.
