![]() Spartacus Should Offer Some Kind of Day One Access to First-Party PlayStation Games While PlayStation Now does feature a small collection of classic titles, the service’s retro library isn’t nearly as substantial as it needs to be given that the PS4 and PS5 offer very little native backward compatibility support.Īn extensive retro game collection would not only help expand Project Spartacus’ initial library it would let everyone know that PlayStation is serious about turning this service into a serious competitor and not just the best option available to gamers with few other options available. ![]() In fact, you could easily argue that Project Spartcus’ primary goal should be to offer PlayStation gamers the expanded backward compatibility access they’ve mostly been denied so far. What’s worse is the PlayStation team has shown little interest in allowing PS5 owners to easily access classic PS1, PS2, and PS3 games (even if they own the physical disc for those games) beyond the occasional remaster, remake, or digital marketplace re-release. While the PlayStation team was nice enough to allow over 100 million PS4 owners to play most of their PS4 games on PS5, PlayStation still trails Xbox’s backward compatibility programs in nearly every respect. Let’s not beat around the bush: PlayStation’s backward compatibility support sucks. Project Spartacus Must Include a Library of Classic PlayStation Games For Expanded Backward Compatability Support Such a service would obviously be welcomed by PlayStation gamers, but even Xbox fans would likely benefit from increased Game Pass competition given some of the moves we’ve seen Microsoft make in the past to stay on top of that marketplace.ĭoes Spartacus really have a chance of challenging or even beating Game Pass, though? Well, Sony has a long way to go if that’s their goal, but here are some of the things the team behind the rumored Spartacus service can do if they’re interested in giving Game Pass real competition. While some reports suggest that Spartacus will essentially end up being a combination of PlayStation Now and PlayStation Plus, it’s that idea that the rumored Spartacus service could eventually prove to be a true Game Pass competitor that has everyone excited. Recent reports that PlayStation is asking retailers to remove PlayStation Now subscription cards from their stores have only fuelled ongoing rumors that PlayStation is working on a Game Pass competitor known simply as Project Spartacus. ![]()
