Sony according to Bloomberg is building an Xbox Game pass subscription for its PlayStation gaming platform. The codename project “Spartacus” would merge the company’s existing PlayStation Plus and PlayStation Now services.
The reports say that this new subscription service would have three segments. The first would offer the current PlayStation Plus benefits, the second would bring PS4 and “eventually” PS5 games.
While the third segment would have “extended demos”, game streaming and a host of games from the retro PS1 to PS3 and PSP games. Bloomberg also says it is “putting resources into expanding its efforts in cloud gaming”.
Sony’s PlayStation PC LLC is publishing more games for its PC gaming customers. More games from its Mobile arm are moving to its PC Segment. Plans to expand sony’s PC gaming segment has been in the works for some time now.

Sony’s move to rival Microsoft’s Xbox Game Pass subscription service is healthy competition with the intent to enrich gamers. The whole package in development for the catalogue of games is still not known.
