PlayStation Plus is preparing to welcome a great classic of recent years. And don’t be jealous, Xbox Game Pass members are in the same boat.
PS Plus Extra subscribers are preparing to see around thirty games. Starting this Tuesday, May 21st (around 11 a.m.), Final Fantasy, Horizon Zero Dawn and a number of excellent productions will leave the service. Final hours then for the most motivated, while the others kindly wait for the ten new games (depending on the formula chosen) that will appear at the same time. The essential Red Dead Redemption 2 is making a comeback to the catalog, but it seems that another Rockstar classic is preparing to hit PlayStation Plus soon.
A Rockstar classic on PlayStation Plus and Xbox Game Pass?
Rockstar has always made it clear that its games will never be available through subscription services immediately upon release. Don’t expect GTA 6 on Xbox Game Pass or PS Plus as soon as it comes out, no matter how much Sony and Microsoft are willing to invest in it. On the other hand, the studio leaves the door clearly open for its older productions. Subscribers to PlayStation Plus Extra and Premium can immerse themselves in the Wild West with Red Dead Redemption 2 tomorrow, but its big brother is also coming soon. While delving into the depths of the official Rockstar website, some users have made an extremely interesting discovery.
A recently added line of code implies that Red Dead Redemption will be the first name added to the PlayStation Plus and Xbox Game Pass catalogs. The game would integrate GTA+, Rockstar’s subscription service, earlier this year. On the other hand, this time there is no mention of a PC version, contrary to recent findings that suggest the possibility of a release on Steam 14 years after the game’s release.
PS Plus Essential or Extra? That is the question
In the event that Red Dead Redemption actually integrates the two services, PlayStation Plus Extra members will undoubtedly be left behind. The classics of the PS3 era are actually reserved for the premium offering, even if they are remasters released on PS4. However, the possibility of it being offered to everyone as part of PS Plus Essential remains a possibility. In fact, it’s not uncommon for one of the trio gifted to PlayStation subscribers to join Xbox Game Pass in the same month. Now we just have to wait for a possible confirmation from Rockstar in the following weeks.
