A recent leak may have revealed a new feature in the works. Sony accidentally uploaded an image of a logo for “PlayStation Plus Video Pass.” The image was uploaded to Sony’s official site before quickly being removed, giving the leak validity. The new feature could be a Sony movie streaming capability added to the PlayStation Plus subscription service. This is counterintuitive to Sony’s latest deal with Netflix for streaming rights and Disney Plus for the Sony/Marvel streaming rights. Sony’s only comment on the leak is that it’s a “test service.”
These updates are the first of many that will shape this console generation. GameSpot readers were asked what feature they want to be added to the PS5. 72% voted for PS1-PS3 games on the PSN. We may see PlayStation head to the player’s call and add the feature in a future update. What feature do you want to see added to PS5 or Xbox Series X/S?
