Jogort Jonbwfc just got an email about this, I’ve done a couple of the ps5 betas with no issue so will try this one also
Jogort Oh didn’t read that bit about it being shareable. Up to 5 qualifying accounts. I’ve used 1 so this can be used 4 more times LPQ6-JDNM-329B
DrDamn Jogort nabbed one too. My one, which I also sent a copy of to @Brave was err … a PS4 one. 🤭 Also post redemption you need to go to System -> updates and then specifically tell it you want a beta update. It doesn’t all kick off manually.
Gordon Interesting that the PS+ tile is now permanently on the home screen. I’m sure that’s nothing to do with Spartacus or anything like that.
Gordon The voice control stuff is really struggling with my accent. I got Dark Souls once in about 10 tries, the others I got this :
DrDamn Gordon just be thankful there isn’t a Purple Burglar Alarm game you want to play all the time… 🤭
Brave DrDamn not redeemed it yet, do I have to pay a tenner for a PS5 upgrade? DO I JIM?! but seriously can I still use it?
Brave Jim being Jim https://www.videogameschronicle.com/news/lawyer-lambasts-sony-for-deceptive-marketing-of-horizons-free-ps5-upgrade/
Jogort Updated to beta 4.0 from 3.1 today when I got to the hotel. No info on what those changes are and a quick Google didn’t show much.
Alex I heard the other day (might have been through DF) that Sony were issuing a PS5 update to fix an issue with Cyberpunk 2077 not working from disk.
Jogort Alex Yeah I think there was a small update for that already, be strange to go 4.0 from 3.1 just for that.
Brave https://www.videogameschronicle.com/news/shadow-warriors-3-will-be-a-playstation-now-title-at-release/ Is that the first time Now has had a release date game? I’ve never really enjoyed Shadow Warrior, I watched the new video and came away feeling like I’d seen the whole game, but it’s interesting given the rumours around Spartacus.
DrDamn https://blog.playstation.com/2022/03/08/state-of-play-returns-this-wednesday/ State of Play on Wednesday. The show is clocking in around 20 minutes, give or take, with a special focus on highlighting great games coming from some of our beloved Japanese publishers, though we’ll have a few updates from other developers located around the world, too.
DrDamn I thought the State of Play was nice to see Sony show off upcoming Japanese content, even though we can’t expect much PS Studios content in this regard. Overall I was interested more in the SquareEnix stuff than anything else. Good solid showing of content coming this year and a breadth of AAA to more B tier stuff. DioField Chronicle was most interesting for me. SRPG with real-time strategic elements and a nice diorama-style presentation: https://blog.playstation.com/2022/03/09/the-diofield-chronicle-announced-for-ps5-and-ps4/ Valkyrie Elysium looked interesting if a little predictable. https://blog.playstation.com/2022/03/09/valkyrie-elysium-descends-onto-ps5-and-ps4-in-2022/ More Stranger of Paradise … not really feeling this one, too whizz bang in the combat. https://blog.playstation.com/2022/03/09/new-stranger-of-paradise-final-fantasy-origin-demo-lets-you-carry-over-progress-to-full-game/ And Forspoken continues to look impressive: https://blog.playstation.com/2022/03/09/worlds-collide-in-forspoken-as-frey-explores-a-land-filled-with-corrupted-creatures/
