The recent leak of a huge amount of information and content from Insomniac continues to be a lot of fun and allowed us to discover two very interesting things: that Sony prepare for the worst following Microsoft’s purchase of Activision Blizzard and which is considering transfer PS Plus to PC and on other devices such as smartphones and tablets.

Both things are deeply related. Sony is scared because they don’t know what will happen in 2027, the date on which the contract signed with Microsoft, which guarantees that Call of Duty will continue to come to PlayStation, ends. The Japanese company is unsure if it will be able to renew the deal, but seems more inclined to believe that the Redmond giant could eventually turn the franchise into exclusive to Xbox and PC.

To avoid this possible situation a compensate for losses At the level of revenue that this could mean, Sony is considering several options, and as I said at the beginning of this news, one of them would be to bring PS Plus to other platforms, and PC would be one of them. If confirmed, it would have to compete with Game Pass and the truth is that It won’t be easy at all.

PS Plus on PC: games and multimedia content

Game Pass offers a large number of games at a very competitive price, so to make the service really interesting on compatible devices, the Japanese company would have to significantly expand the catalog of available gamesand should provide you with additional value by adding additional content.

In this sense, it is said that in addition to the games available for PC that come from Sony studios, this version of PS Plus for compatibles would include subscription to other services like Disney+, Spotify and Crunchyroll as well as special content for free for different games that would change every month.

We’ll see how it all turns out, but the truth is this Sony will have a hard time positioning PS Plus as a truly competitive alternative to Game Pass, especially if Microsoft decides to expand the exclusives to games like Call of Duty and other games like Diablo, DOOM, Quake, The Elder Scrolls 6 and Fallout.

Reading between the lines, I think it’s likely that Sony does too they end up being forced to bring more games to PC maximize the profitability of their development. Today, the company has many options in this regard, as highly sought-after games like Bloodborne or Demon’s Souls Remake remain exclusive to PS4-PS5 and PS5. It could also be forced to change its strategy with the availability of its biggest games on PS Plus.
