The post PlayStation Store Update Worldwide – February 27, 2024 appeared first on PlayStation LifeStyle.

Sony will announce March’s PS Plus Essential games soon, but one of the titles leaked early. According to a report, next month’s free lineup likely includes the martial arts action game Sifu.

Sifu may be one of next month’s PS Plus Essential games

This news comes from leaker billbil-kun, who shared the news on Twitter and Deallabs. While they didn’t have any information to share about the other two games, they believe Sifu will be the main attraction. As with all leaks, this should be taken with a grain of salt. However, billbil-kun has been a reliable source in the past.

As for the other titles, fans have speculated on games ranging from Forspoken to God of War: Ragnarok. However, if Sony intends for Sifu to be next month’s headliner, it seems unlikely that the other two will be that high profile. Either way, fans will know for sure when Sony announces the PS Plus March lineup on February 28. Whatever the games end up being, PS Plus Essential subscribers can claim them from March 5 to April 2.

Released in 2022, Sifu is a third-person martial arts beat ‘em up set in contemporary China. Players take the role of the son or daughter of a murdered martial arts master and embark on a quest for revenge against the men responsible. After having their throat cut and being left for dead, a magical talisman revives them. However, it has the side effect of accelerating the protagonist’s age.

This sets the stage for Sifu’s most unique gameplay mechanic. Every time the player-character dies, the talisman ages them up several years. The protagonist gets stronger after each resurrection, letting their strikes deal more damage. However, each revival also reduces maximum health. The talisman also has a limited number of uses, after which point the protagonist loses the ability to revive.

The post PlayStation Store Update Worldwide – February 20, 2024 appeared first on PlayStation LifeStyle.

Sony has revealed the next batch of games that are leaving PS Plus Extra and Premium catalogs in March 2024. Earlier today, the subscription service rolled out new additions for both tiers, and with that, seven games were announced to be leaving PS Plus.

List of games leaving PS Plus Extra and Premium in March

Players will lose access to the following games by mid March. Make sure to wrap up your progress before then unless you plan to make a purchase.

• Civilization VI 
• Tchia 
• Ghostwire: Tokyo 
• NEO: The World Ends With You 
• Haven 
• Code Vein 
• Outer Wilds 

We’ll update this list if Sony adds more games to the departures list.

As a reminder, here are the games that were added to the service today:

• Assassin’s Creed Valhalla (PS5, PS4)
• LEGO Jurassic World (PS4)
• LEGO Worlds (PS4)
• Need for Speed Unbound (PS5)
• The Outer Worlds: Spacer’s Choice Edition (PS5)
• Rogue Lords (PS4)
• Roguebook (PS5, PS4)

• Tales of Zestiria (PS4)

Premium only:

• Resistance: Retribution (PS5, PS4)
• Tales of Symphonia (PS5, PS4)
• Tales of Vesperia (PS5, PS4)

Resistance: Retribution supports trophies (including Platinum). However, there are reports of the trophies being bugged so you might want to await a patch.

PSP classic Resistance: Retribution will have trophies when it releases as part of PS Plus Premium’s February 2024 lineup. Developer Bend Studio confirmed as much, making the shooter the latest first-party Premium classic to support trophies on the PS4 and PS5.

Resistance: Retribution trophies have yet to be revealed

Although Resistance: Retribution will be out as soon as next week on Tuesday, February 20, the game’s trophy list has yet to be revealed. Trophy lists are typically picked up from Sony’s servers ahead of release by sites like PSNProfiles, so we’ll keep our eyes peeled and our readers posted.

Over on Twitter, Bend Studio also confirmed that Resistance: Retribution will support PS3 controller layout.

Resistance: Retribution released in 2009 exclusively on the PSP. The game has garnered a cult following over the years, with fans requesting a re-release. The PS Plus Premium classic was originally leaked years ago, but was only just announced.

“Experience Resistance: Retribution, originally released on the PSP and now enhanced with up-rendering, rewind, quick save, and custom video filters,” Sony wrote. “Fueled by vengeance, former British Marine James Grayson intends to destroy the Chimeran conversion centers at any cost. Enlisted by the European resistance, The Maquis, he soon learns the Chimera have evolved a new method of converting humans.”

Meanwhile, PlayStation Plus Premium gets Resistance: Retribution and a couple of games in the Tales of… franchise.

The post PlayStation Store Update Worldwide – February 6, 2024 appeared first on PlayStation LifeStyle.

PS Plus Premium members, specifically those who have a PS5, can enjoy chunky game trials for two of 2023’s major video games: Alan Wake 2 and Marvel’s Spider-Man 2. While Alan Wake 2’s free trial is live, players will have to wait until next week to give Spider-Man 2 a shot.

New PS Plus Premium game trial lengths offer a good look at the games

Alan Wake 2’s PS Plus trial is three hours long. For those who haven’t been following the game, Alan Wake 2’s main story can be beaten in under 20 hours so this trial is a decent-sized slice. Spider-Man 2’s game trial, which will go live on Tuesday, February 6, will be two hours long. Its main story is roughly the same length as Alan Wake 2’s (17-18 hours, depending on playstyle).

It’s unclear how long the trials will be available but Sony says Spider-Man 2’s trial will be available for a limited time only, calling it a “Valentine’s celebration” on the PlayStation Blog. All campaign progress and trophies from trials carry over to full games, if players proceed to purchase them.

As a reminder, PS Plus Essential’s monthly games for February will also go live on Tuesday, the 6th.

Sony has rolled out a PS Plus discount offer for new and returning subscribers in some regions, making Extra cheaper than Essential for the time being. The percentage of discount seems to vary between users, but Extra still comes out cheaper than the most basic tier.

New PS Plus discount offer lasts until February 11

Users across Reddit and ResetEra have reported receiving more than 40% off of PS Plus Extra. The discount has been offered to new as well as returning subscribers with lapsed memberships. We can confirm that members across Europe, North America, and Australia have been offered the discount, with an end date of February 11.

Sony has a strange way of rolling these offers out so if you’re unable to see the discount using the web store, we advise trying via the PS App. If you don’t see the discount at all then you either have an active membership or you’re just one of the unlucky ones. Discounts are often applied randomly, but this one seems to have been rolled out more widely.

It’s unclear why some users are getting up to 44% off while others are getting only 40% off. Here are examples of two different regions’ offers:
