PlayStation 4 games have arrived on PlayStation Now
Now streaming to a Windows PC near you
Good news for subscribers to Sony’s Netflix-inspired game streaming service PlayStation Now: you can now access a number of PlayStation 4 titles.
Before this, the streaming service which makes it possible to play PlayStation games on a Windows PC only gave access to PS3 titles.
The number of PS4 games you’ll see added to the library is dependent on where you live. In the US and Canada, 20 PS4 titles will be added to the service’s library, bringing its total number of games to over 500.
The games North American subscribers will have access to are:
- Killzone Shadow Fall
- God of War 3 Remastered
- Saints Row 4: Re-Elected
- WWE 2K16
- Tropico 5
- F1 2015
- Darksiders 2 Deathinitive Edition
- Evolve
- MX vs ATV Supercross Encore
- Resogun
- Helldivers
- Broken Age
- Grim Fandango Remastered
- Dead Nation: Apocalypse Edition
- Guilty Gear Xrd Sign
- Castlestorm Definitive Edition
- Exist Archive: The Other Side of the Sky
- Arcania Complete Tale
- Nidhogg
- Super Mega Baseball
According to Sony’s announcement, more PS4 games will be added “in the coming months alongside our regular monthly content drops,” and there will be “plenty more great PS4 and PS3 content coming this year and next from [Sony Interactive Entertainment] and other top publishers.”
In Europe, however, there are 51 PS4 games being added to the service, though this will bring the library’s total number of games to just over 400 rather than the North American number of 500.
The PS4 titles now available in Europe are:

Though this does make PlayStation Now a more attractive service than it was before, it’s still fairly expensive for what it is, with prices being $19.99 per month in the US and £12.99 each month in the UK.
Compare this to Microsoft’s Xbox Game Pass service, which allows its subscribers to access a similar Netflix-style library of games but download them rather than stream for just £7.99/$9.99 per month and it’s safe to say Sony still has some catching up to do here.
