PS Now June 2021 Update Adds The Witcher 3, Sonic Games, Slay the Spire, and More

Not bad at all. I’ll give Team Sonic Racing ago and I own most of the rest but a new PS owner would be very happy with that.

Slay the spire is great, please play it!

Cool! Especially the SEGA stuff. Is there anybody who hasn’t played Wild Hunt yet?

A nice announcement for PS Now subscribers. Hopefully Sony's next announcement will be for a state of play in the near future to showcase some upcoming games. Mid July would be perfect 🙃

Great month for me. Definitely going to play Witcher 3 right away, and might do Car Mechanic Simulator at some point in the future.

To everyone who was complaining about Witcher 3's inclusion in the other post, this complete edition is a different trophy list, so you might not have played it already if you just played the original version.

Much better this month, thank you Sony.

@Milktastrophe It’s an incredible game! Writing is so good. Enjoy!

So Virtua Fighter 5: Ultimate Showdown is on PS Plus and PS Now? Bizarre, they’ve been double dipping on these subscriptions for a while now, but as far as I know, this is the first that’s appeared on both, the same day.

A bit weird for those of us that subscribe to both. Not really an issue. Just a bit of a strange decision.

Don't most people own Witcher 3 at this point? It is a good addition, though.

Still no news on when (or if) the service will be expanded in more countries. It is still not available in some European countries.

Team Sonic is one of the worst arcade racers I have ever played, I usually love Sumo digital but they dropped the ball with that game. If Sega/Sony adds Sonic all-stars racing or/and Sonic Transformed I would sign up for Now in a heartbeat.

I just don’t get PS Now. Why wouldn’t you just buy games like Witcher 3 which are always on sale for a small fraction of the cost of the monthly subscription price.
I hate to leave games unfinished and would rather enjoy fewer games to the end than dabble in many games and only just get past the introduction chapter before moving on to the next.

@r1chard PS now for PS4 games makes no sense but for PS3 it would be worth it as there's no other way to play those games on PS4/PS5. Sony just has to add allot more and let us download the games to the HDD.

I Think At This Point The Only Sonic Games Aside From The Handheld Stuff Thats Not On PS Now Is Sonic 06 Tho I Could Be Wrong

Been thinking of picking up Slay the Spire for a while, guess my patience has paid off, will definitely be giving it a go. I'll happily check out Sonic Team Racing and Virtual Fighter V too. Good month for me.

VF5 being on both Plus and Now is a good thing for once, the more people get to try it out the better.

Team Sonic Racing is a bit underrated, sure it's no Transformed but it's quite a solid title. Online is sadly pretty vacant but I hope Now does something to help that a little bit.
If Sumo gets brought back again, I'd like to see their take on Sonic Riders, for a change of pace.

@Orpheus79V "Team Sonic Racing is a bit underrated"

Really? 😅 We went from a colorful and incredible cast in Transformed and the first one that covered Sega's entire history to Team Sonic which only had generic Sonic characters straight out of a furry convention.

The team racing itself was pointless as even if one of your teammates did bad but the other two were excellent all of you would still lose, since you have no control over the cpu you have to pray he doesn't do bad. It required allot of luck, god I hate that game lol.

@r1chard I think there's like 700 or so games on PS Now now. Even if you pay full price for the subscription, that comes out to about 8 cents per game. Witcher 3 has never been that cheap.

Sup dudes? Just managed to snag a PS5, ready to give the Sony ecosystem a decent go. What are some opinions on the value of PS Now? Currently a bit on the fence.

@Juanalf okay, that makes sense. I skipped the PS3, so didn’t know this was a thing on that console.

@get2sammyb The reason Virtua Fighter V is on both PS+ and PS Now is for matchmaking purposes. They want to guarantee the largest pool of players to battle each other in online matches.

@commentlife I think there is a 7 day trial. I did the trial myself a few months ago and ended up canceling. As a long time Playstation fan, I've played most games worth playing. For someone new to the ecosystem it is a great way to start playing a huge library for nominal entry fee, so probably a great deal for you.

Some nice additions there. Could've done with Witcher 3 being permanent though, unlikely I'll get through it in time.

Sonic Team Racing is underrated in my opinion. Solid kart racer, maybe the story mode is a bit naff though, but what do you expect from Sonic

Lovely! Sonic Mania, Slay the Spire & Car Mechanic Simulator were all on my list to buy at some moment in time

@Milktastrophe so maybe not so great after all. Witcher 3 is kinda a bad game, eh? Feels like a budget title, even for 2015. It's so janky and glitchy, and I'm only like 2 hours in. NPCs are getting stuck on things. Things are going through other things, like trees going through buildings, horse going through trees.

But the real issue I'm not sure I can get past, the combat just feels clunky and bad. Maybe it was ok in 2015, but man, going from Genshin Impact's fluid combat to Witcher 3 feels like such a downgrade.
