most of us think it will happen during state of play tonight at 10pm. it usually gets announced the Wednesday before at around 4.30pm

Niska · 25-02-2021 11:22PM

So we know one April game (Abe Soulstorm) before we know the March games

Exclamation Marc · 25-02-2021 11:32PM

Ermmmmm...... Well no games being announced was surprising I guess.

EoinMcLovin · 25-02-2021 11:33PM

So no PsPlus games for March announced. We're either going to find out tomorrow or Monday. I'd say one of the games they had fell through at the last minute and they've been trying to sort out a replacement

Or not

CastorTroy · 25-02-2021 11:51PM

Just thinking now that the announcement delay is due to poor communication between departments.
The ones who announce the games probably assumed the State of Play would announce them so didn't go through with the announcement.

Getting the new oddworld game at launch for free is pretty sweet to be fair. Hopefully we find out march games tomorrow.

EoinMcLovin · 26-02-2021 12:59PM

From Japanese PSN Store page of FF7R Intergrade, there is a mention of this at the bottom. (rough google translate)

Oh cool....so we might get Remake in March but when it comes to Integrade, the base version is 70 euro, the standard edition featuring Yuffie ep is 80 euro and the digital deluxe edition is 100 euro (same as styandard but with digital artbook and mini soundtrack...

They didn't make this half confusing.

Unless there is a separate Upgrade option that will be available later if you own remake on ps4 already. Hopefully same applies to the ps plus version, wouldn't mind paying a few quid for the Yuffie episode and ps5 upgrade.

Upgrade from a purchased copy of FF VII to PS5 is free.

You will need to purchase the dlc separately though.

Its been confirmed. I can understand the delay until Friday as had they announced this list on Wednesday then said there was a free FF7R upgrade announced on Thursday there would be a ****storm when they say you can't with PS+.

It really is Sony's fault for basically self inflicting this enture issue on themselves.

Delighted about Maquette. A weird, ambitious Annapurna-published puzzle game is something I’d have picked up regardless.

El Gato De Negocios · 26-02-2021 02:42PM

Delighted with the FF VII inclusion, ive been flirting with it for months but couldn't justify paying the prices its at for what is essentially half a game.

Goddamn that looks interesting, world within a world within a world and moving an object in a small world will move it in the big world. "The puzzles help tell a love story where small problems can become insurmountable obstacles."

Frankly, FFVIIR would benefit significantly from being half the overstretched game it actually is

CastorTroy · 26-02-2021 03:41PM

So if you play the game on Plus and like it enough that you want the DLC, you have to buy the PS5 version of the game + the DLC?

That's expensive DLC

Yeah so it's like, most people have Plus and will play it if interested. Then Intergrade comes out and they expect people to play 80 euro to get the upgrade and Yuffie episode. No one is gonna do that. They'd be much better off if it wasn't included with plus, at least people might be tempted to either haven't played it before or played iton original release and want to try it again. Very weird decision.

CastorTroy · 26-02-2021 03:49PM

And if it goes on sale on the store, won't be able to buy it because it's in our accounts even though it would be the upgradeable version

johnny_ultimate · 26-02-2021 03:54PM

Was it Drive Club that had an 'upgrade' edition - as in you could upgrade your PS+ version to the full one for something like 20 quid. They should do that in this case - maybe make the update cheaper for those who've got it through plus, while still having the free upgrade for those who bought it.

quinnd6 · 26-02-2021 03:55PM

Hey folks just wondering what's the cheapest you can get PS Plus for over here?

€60. There are currently no offers or resale codes atm.

Cienciano · 26-02-2021 04:26PM

Oh FFVII, that's cool. I'll play for a couple of hours and realise it wasn't that good. I have bad memories about finding out how to breeding chocobos from gamefaq's to get knights of round materia. Having flashbacks just thinking about it.

It's totally different now, I just couldn't really get into it personally and played the first 3 hours or so....

I adored the PS1 title but could be just rose tinted spectacles to be honest...

Aw I feared that was the case.
I looked myself on the usual sites and found nothing too.
I likely won't bother.
Hate losing access to games when sub expires.
I often replay old games when sequels come out and am not that into multiplayer and have a backlog of older physical games so I'll forget about plus and just play those.
Thanks anyway.

I'd imagine I'd do the same.

I remember thinking the motorbike bit was unbelievably good. Looking at it now, it's looks so bad.

Breeding chocobos.
Just put on some Barry White.

Potential-Monke · 26-02-2021 08:29PM

Not a great month for me. Remnant is loosely Dark Souls with guns, but has difficulty levels so might give it a spin. FFVII remake, I played the demo and didn't like it. Can't imagine an overstretched version being any better. Never played the original, but I don't like this hybrid system they have for fighting.

Farpoint I've heard is pointless without the Aim controller so that's out. And maquette does look interesting, but the overarching love story is putting me off it. Will give it a go.

Greyfox · 26-02-2021 09:29PM

I have FF7 remake already and loved it, think im going to start avoiding the purchase of games that i think might come to ps plus or ps now.
