The first batch of games available for the new PS Plus Premium subscription might have just been leaked.
Recently, Sony revealed the long-rumored overhaul to the PlayStation Plus and PlayStation Now subscription services. The service, which is set to launch in June, splits the subscription into three tiers: PlayStation Plus Essential, PlayStation Plus Extra and PlayStation Plus Premium.
PlayStation Plus Premium, the service's highest tier, includes everything present in the lower tiers while adding up to 340 additional games, including: PS3 games available via cloud streaming, a catalog of classic games available in both streaming and download options from the original PlayStation, PS2 and PSP generations.
So far, the games that are slated for the service have mostly been kept under wraps. But, thanks to a recent leak, the first batch of available retro games may have been revealed.
According to a report from Gematsu, four Syphon Filter games have been rated in Korea for PS4 and PS5 consoles. These games are, Syphon Filter, Syphon Filter 2, Syphon Filter: Dark Mirror, and Syphon Filter: Logan's Shadow.
The report suggests that the games will likely be added as part of the PlayStation Plus Premium service, considering the tier promised to add a selection of âbeloved classic gamesâ to its backwards compatible catalog.
The service's overhaul has garned some mixed reception so far largely focused on the price. For the PlayStation Plus Premium service, players will be looking to spend $17.99 monthly, $49.99 quarterly, or $119.99 yearly. Many have also been disheartened over Sony's plans to lock their extensive backwards compatibility catalog behind the most expensive tier.
Whether or not Syphon Filter will be heading to the service remains to be seen, as does the rest of the planned games. Until official confirmation comes from Sony, players will need to set their expectations accordingly.
