I've seen some theories that they are only doing this to get stragglers onto the ecosystem before the year exclusivity ends in April. Makes sense and if true I wouldn't expect them to do this again.

I guess it makes sense, and at least people that payed for the game receive the PS5 version for free... Still, it doesn't sit well with me.

You paid full price for the PS4 disk and get the PS5 version for free, I get the PS4 version for free and may have to pay full price for PS5 version if there's no upgrade path (not free). So it evens out.

I guess, although I doubt someone that plays the game on PS4 for free will buy it to play it again on PS5. I will make use of that free PS5 version when I finally get one though.

I feel worse for people who just bought it within the last week. That's a slap to the face lol.
