PS Plus Collection Now Has 20 Games for PS5 Launch, All Will Benefit from PS5 Game Boost

they should have put uncharted lost legacy in there

Probably give days gone a go but have played the rest or don't want too. What I want to know is how long will this collection be available for?

Pretty sweet, god of war will be what I play on ps5 nov19th. Never played it, have two days off work with everyone else out the house and err provisions in place. BRING THE HYPE!

This is about tempting people from outside of the PlayStation ecosystem into it. It's arguably very shrewd, because that is one hell of a line up if you've skipped PS4 this generation.

@Ben7982 There's no mention of an expiry date, so we can assume that it'll always be a part of PlayStation Plus. You can play all of the Collection games as long as you have an active subscription.

I'm getting at least 7 of these games ffs

Days Gone, MHW, FFXV, Fallout 4 and Bloodborne with 60fps pleaseee

How exactly does the game boost effect these game and will these games also benefit from it if I don't play it via that service but already own them (I guess so)?

@DonJorginho FFXV already had a 60fps mode, although it only reached about 40-45fps most of the time but on PS5 it will probably be (constant) 60fps now

Yeah i havent started days gone yet, so i'll be waiting to play this version.

@mariomaster96 All PS4 games should benefit from Game Boost to some extent. It's just that Sony has specifically confirmed that the Collection games will be improved. Even if you're not a PS Plus sub and you already own these games, they'll still see the same benefits.

Noice! All we want is Arkham Knight with a steady framerate and without all the screen-tearing when in the Batmobile (base PS$, no idea is it was better on the Pro)

Really good lineup. Maybe when my brother gets his own PS5 I can finally get him to play the N. Sane Trilogy.

Very generous collection of games there btw do we claim these games automatically even when we don't have a ps5 yet?

@ShogunRok yeah but I just wondered if that means like 60fps and/or 4K support or if it just means that the framerate/dynamic resolution is more stable, but the last one would make sense even without something called game boost just because the PS5 has more power to handle more constant framerate/resolution

Horizon...

should be there

Bloodborne with game boost here I come.

This is actually really good value for new ps owners that didn't have ps4, the quality of the exclusive games is kind of crazy with bloodborne, tlou remaster, uncharted 4 and others

I really hope there's 60 fps patch for bloodborne.

@mariomaster96 Unless a game is patched to take advantage of PS5, it'll still be limited by frame rate caps and its original resolution.

For example, unless Bloodborne is patched to run at 60fps, it'll still run at 30fps on PS5, even with Game Boost. All Game Boost does is push the PS4 games to their maximum settings, whatever they might be.

So your summary is correct. The bottom line is that a game has to be updated in order to go beyond its maximum PS4 performance on PS5.

Ghost of Tsushima, for example, has an additional 60fps option exclusively on PS5. So it's possible that other games will follow in time.

Good that there are now 4 games I’ll try. Was getting it anyway for the two ps5 games announced. Will let my PS Now sub lapse though. Don’t know why Sony can’t just integrate the services. I’m not paying for both when games are duplicated between them so often!

Sweet, not a lot here I haven't already played but I definitely understand the value of this list to players new to the PS ecosystem through PS5. I'll maybe go back and play Crash, RE7 and Bloodborne with Game Boost but I generally move on from the old when the new is all shiny and tantalizing.

Ton of value there for less than the cost of a new game. Hope they keep adding to it as time passes! Very surprised Horizon isn't on there.

@ShogunRok thx, yeah I get that the developer has to update the game for it to run at 60fps, I mean if it is capped at 30fps it won't magically run at 60fps on PS5
I guess it just confused me that they make Game Boost look like a big deal while in reality it just makes sense for PS4 games to perform better on PS5 than PS4, even if they wouldn't call it Game Boost

Damn it! I bought Crash Bandicoot a few months ago 🤣

cannot understand how sony did not include all of its 1st party/published ps4 offerings in this bundle. makes zero sense (outside of its most recent releases such as tsushima and last of us 2). missing form the list: horizon, death stranding, the order: 1886, uncharted collection, uncharted lost legacy, shadow of the colossus, tearaway unfolded, heavy rain/beyond two souls remastered and gran turismo sport. these are all very old releases and made their sales long ago. if anything, i would remove the 3rd party games and make this a playstation exclusive collection full stop. a lot of the 3rd party games in the collection have nothing to do with the playstation identity and are filler.

Well I own cod and the chronicles map pack, been on my mind to reinstall so ill wait for ps5 and get back to it on zombies for the older maps, while playing the new cod zombies 😁

Just want to add, sony doing something right with these games cannot complain at all if im honest.

Aweome move. I was going to buy crash, saves me the cash.

That’s awesome I sold Crash a while ago, and wanted to go back to clean up some trophies and play the DLC, this is awesome.....

Do these games get all new trophies, cheeky stacks? We will see

@Ben7982 days gone is great.

Can't wait to play Days Gone again with the added power of the PS5 . Days was my GOTY for 2019 but I still ran into so many technical issues .

Never played Resi 7, so that'll be good! I assume it will be the VR compatible version?

that is a nice stack of games if you have been an Xbox One guy this gen & have switched to PS5 what a treat you will get on day one!! a few I still haven't played well done Sony this is a great move.

@PSfanboy1992 I loved it too I will do my New Game Plus on PS5.

Sweet, both Shadow of War in PS+ and Crash in PS+ Collection were on my radar for a long time. Today is a good day

@ShogunRok Incase anyone wants to order the camera adapter for the vr for ps5 here is a link https://camera-adaptor.support.playstation.com/en

Is this collection only for PS5?

To clarify: are these the PS4 games to be added to ANY subscribed account, or the specific "BC" versions only downloadable and usable on PS5?

Since the lineup's announcement, I kinda assumed the latter, and it's not much of a factor for me anyway (my current sub is all the way into next July regardless), but the former would certainly be 20% cooler (possible control hijinks in some of these be damned). FFXV, Persona 5, Days Gone, RE7... all pretty juicy additions to the library - and the whole marketing campaign involving them, potentially the only way I may ever benefit from PS5 release in the visible future.😆

@Porco Who Says they Won't Do it Later I Can See them Adding Ghost Of Tsushima The Last Of Us 2 And Maybe Final Fantasy 7 Remake To This Collection Next One Game They Should Add Tho Is Dreams.

They are really sweetening the deal for the PS5.

@Revengercm i expect it will be added before forbidden west comes out

@Rob_230 or maybe there is a remastered version that will be similar to steam one and they want to sell it to you.

Hopefully not. Just seems weird. God of war is next year too, so I do not get it.

Bloodborne at 60 fps would be awesome..

@ShogunRok: FFXV has also been upgraded to the Royal Edition, so that's a nice new bonus too.

@WizzNL Oh that's great. A shame I bought the DLC in a recent sale in preparation, wish they clarified that sooner. But good to know for everyone else.

Scalpers are all ready selling them for £700 on ebay with shop receipt as proof.
Meanwhile real games couldn't even pre-order a ps5 console.
Influencer's are unboxing on youtube and i wonder how they play games with all the apple and samsung unboxing they do how they find the time.

2nd wave or 3rd wave ? march or april 2021 we will hopefully have a chance to order one.

Great. Was planning on buying crash trilogy but will wait for my ps5 to come.

@ankehuber COD and Crash Bandicoot N. Sane Trilogy

@hoffa007 Thanks for posting the UK link. Managed to complete it eventually (The website seemed to get stuck on the ‘I am not a robot’ page). They will apparently ‘be in touch’ with updates, no email confirmation as yet.

Really hope the new Astro will be PSVR, although the lack of info does reduce my expectations.

@Madnurz you are welcome, well you got further than me 😅 the furthest I got was the serial number then reset so I'm just going to wait abit more before trying again feel like it will just keep failing.

I know what you mean would be great if it was psvr but I agree with you I think maybe lack of info it won't be. Someone at my work thought the PS camera would work with the Astro game on ps5 like it did on the ps4, not that sony said anything about that but still confused them with thinking it was like Playroom because it used Astro.

Wow! 23 games!
Love it

@hoffa007 we can only hope! Hope you get through soon and get your interest registered for the first release.

On a separate note I can’t recall reading any PSVR ps5 game upgrade articles. Not sure if they can upgrade games, but I would be really interested to know, either way.

Sweet, not played the Crash Trilogy.

@David187 Yeah, I've been holding off on the New Game + for the same reason. Tragically underrated game.

@Madnurz thankyou my friend ill try again in a min.

I agree i haven't either, many things I see people ask but no answers for these things. I assume they may do but would be great if they give us some news soon or maybe after launch at least. Looking forward to hitman in vr in January.

Edit: I just managed to register got straight through no problems. So all set now for us both.

@hoffa007 Excellent news mate. I received email confirmation about 15 minutes later. Saying ‘If granted, shipments are expected to begin around mid-November 2020’. Fingers crossed for it arriving before the main event 😀

No racing games?

@Madnurz ah thats good, that sounds like it could be launch date, that is perfect to tryout the vr on the ps5 even without any enhancements the excitement is enough.

I wonder how long this will be available for? Didn't manage to get a PS5 pre-order but don't want to miss out on some of these

No Final Fantasy VII Remake!?!

Not to be "That Guy", but almost half those games have been on the PS+ already. Sucks for the long time subscribers, but this is excellent for those who are just getting into it now.

Batman: Arkham Knight
Bloodborne
Detroit: Become Human
inFAMOUS: Second Son
Ratchet & Clank
The Last of Us Remastered
Until Dawn
Uncharted 4: A Thief's End

Since the PS5 is going to be difficult to come by for the next while, or even for those who are holding off, I wonder if we can claim this collection without the new system.

Are the first-party games included in this collection permanent, like Microsoft's games on Game Pass?

Not a bad little selection at all considering it's free w/ PS+

Can someone please explain how this service works? Is this replacing PSnow?
PSnow never launched in my country so I have no point of reference.
Do the games rotate and drop in and out over time?

@Arnna No, once you claim a game on PS+, it stays with you forever long as the program exists. But you need to be subscribed in order to access any games you do get under it. They will never be rotated out under the current setup.

@SilentS thanks heaps for the explanation.

Come on uncharted trilogy! And Skyrim gota play me some Skyrim too!

Great list. I do own most of them but I want to try others that I do not. In the end it works for me, I am happy.

Ooh if they're upgrading which version of games are in the collection I wonder what the odds are of them adding P5R rather than the standard version.

@KidBoruto While that is what I assumed, there was a rumor I heard from a friend (take it as you will, as unlikely as it is), that to get the collection, it is required to have the PS5. This is what lead to my statement.

@KidBoruto Yeah I treat all rumors as false, but never completely ignore them either. I would never put it past some companies to actually do some of the crap I hear about.
