PlayStation Now’s software library includes more than 300 PS4 titles which can be downloaded and played on a PS4 console, and over 700 PS2, PS3 and PS4 games streamable to PS4 or PC.

This year’s new PlayStation Now arrivals include Control, Shadow of the Tomb Raider, Spider-Man, Just Cause 4, Rainbow Six Siege, The Evil Within 2, Metro Exodus, Dishonored 2, Watch Dogs 2, Street Fighter V, and Hitman 2.

PlayStation Now had over 2.2 million subscribers as of April 2020, according to Sony – up from one million in October 2019.

October’s PlayStation Plus games, Need for Speed: Payback and Vampyr, are also available from today.
