Sony is currently giving away Star Wars Battlefront Ultimate Edition on the PS4 with new 12-month subscriptions of PlayStatin Plus. This limited time offer bags you seven PlayStation Plus games, instead of the usual six. Unfortunately, it’s only available to new subscribers, so existing subscribers are ineligible for the offer.
New content has been added for PlayStation Plus subscribers this week, which includes LittleBigPlanet 3 (PS4), Not a Hero (PS4) and four other games in Europe and North America. Asia’s update has also now gone live, and arguably includes better games that the Western update. Asia received two PS4 games in the February update, including LBP3, and Housemarque’s Alienation.
Sony’s home country, Japan, will be one of the last major markets to get their hands on the PS4, following confirmation on the PS4’s launch window in other Asian territories. The console will be launching in China, South Korea and Taiwan just a month after releasing in North America and Europe, while Japan will have to wait until February 2014.
If you’re a fan of PlayStation Home, don’t expect it to carry over to the PS4, as Sony are shutting down the service in Asian territories including Japan. The move could be a precursor to a worldwide shutdown. A press release from Sony states that there will be no new content for the service in Japan after September 2013, with other Asian territories following suit in March 2014.
