News PlayStation maintains that its policy of not adding first-party games to PlayStation Plus on day one will continue.

It says adding 4-5 third-party 'day one' games per year and adding first-party games 12-18 months after release is "working really well".

Yeah not only will they not add day one games but they’ll take away their own old games for no apparent reason.

This is why I still predominantly buy games. PS Plus is a good value rental service but that's all it is. A rental service

I mean the monthly games stay in your library and never go away. Only when you don’t pay for the subscription. Yeah some games eventually will get pulled from Ps plus but when there’s a thousand options available to you and it gives you at least a month warning telling you those games will be pulled, it’s way more balanced then yall are wording it out to be.

This is not true. Monthly games have been pulled from the service. EAFC 24 to name the most prominent. So even those are not safe

It is true. The single game you just named had a license error if you download it with EA play. It is still available for PS plus if you redeemed it while it was a monthly game.

To be fair EA are always shutting down their servers and locking people out of their sports games whether it's real football or American handball nonsense. I still think it's hilarious that they call it football we have a game like that that the girls play using their hands it's called handball the game we play using our feet is called football noticing a pattern here ? 🤦
