Despite being a service for quite a long time, it’s hard to suggest that PlayStation Now is vital to the PS4 experience – you aren’t exactly missing out on much if you don’t subscribe. It demands a lot of your internet connection owing to it streaming all of its games, so those without superfast broadband need not apply. Even then the games suffer from compressed resolution and constant stuttering.

The odd nature of the architecture of the PlayStation 3 makes streaming a necessity, which is one of the main reasons why we will never get comprehensive backwards compatibility with the PlayStation 4 or PlayStation 5. The PS3 was certainly a bit of a wild card.

But Sony aren’t giving up on it just yet. With a massive library of PS3 games not quite enough to convince gamers the similarly massive monthly price was worth it, they not too long released PS4 games for PlayStation Now that could be downloaded instead of streamed. Seen as a direct response to Xbox Game Pass, PlayStation Now is in a better position than it ever has been, though the jury is still out on its long-term appeal.

Thinking of taking out a PlayStation Now subscription? Here all the PS4 games you can download or stream right now. We’ll try and keep this updated with which games are leaving the service and when, as well as what is coming in the future. Those temporarily available are highlighted in bold. Bear in mind that all of the PS4 games will all also work on PS5.

More are still to come with plenty of big publishers pledging support for PS4 and PS3 games (and possibly even the PlayStation 5) for the foreseeable. SIE will also be bringing more and more first-party titles to the service, so here’s hoping they bring more PS4 exclusives to add to the likes of Shadow Fall and Bloodborne. Hopefully they bring more games that aren’t just remasters.

That recent update also brought PS4 games to PC; Now has always had the option with its PS3 titles.

While still pricey, there is also the option of buying a year’s subscription, which usually brings the cost down to something more palatable. That’s a lot better than handing over $20 every 30 days, though it’s still an extra payment on top of PlayStation Plus.

What do you think to the change? Has it convinced you to give Now a chance? Let us know down below. Here’s how you can get PS Now on the cheap.
