Topic: PS Now Questions (Ones not on the FAQ)

Hey guys.

I've checked the official website and some questions i had over PS Now weren't answered so i'm trying my luck here.

1. I have 2 PSN Accounts. One UK one and one USA one.

I purchase the majority of my games on the USA account but play on my UK account because that is where my trophies have been since PS3 days. I have a USA PS Plus subscription and it works on either account.

I wanted to check if i subscribe to PS NOW on my USA account, will i be able to play PS Now games on my UK account? Basically can 1 Subscription cover both accounts.

2. I see some games are available till early next year (Gow, uncharted, gta 5)

If i download these games before they are taken off the store, can i redownload them when i please or once i delete them, they are gone forever?

Thanks for any help guys.

I can't answer the first question but the second.
You can download and delete as often as you like till such time either the game is taken off the service or your no longer a member.

@AdamNovice

Wow thanks for the quick reply! Great news about Question 2. I can now download the limited offer games as they appear and build my backlog.

If PS Now has a black friday sale for $40, i forsee loads of people signing up.

@Netret0120 I would use you trial on the US to see if they play on the UK one ok. I do not see an issue as i share my games with a friend. The ps3 games will be bound to your US account

@ZeD

I'd need an American address plus credit card to signup for the free trial and i don't have either.

I'll try view some youtube videos to see if anyone else has asked a similar question and go from there if i dont find anything. Might just pay for a 1 month sub with a voucher and test it out.

why not just subscribe to psnow on your UK account, it seems like a more logical thing to do if you play all your games on your UK account? — redeem codes for psnow are available from here: https://www.shopto.net/en/playstation-now/ so you might not need a region address/credit card. at under 40 GBP it's currently cheaper than the US.

i'm almost sure that streaming games will not work with different accounts (unless one is a sub-account of another).

@leucocyte

Thanks for the link!

I normally buy my games through the US Store because it has better and cheaprr deals than the UK one.

But in this case, £40 works out to less than $60 so i'll simply go through the UK store for PS Now.

Thanks to everyone for your help.
