After months of speculation and one major slip-of-the-tongue from Xbox, it’s looking like PlayStation is finally gearing up to announce its new subscription gaming service. The program, which carries the code name “Spartacus,” could be introduced as early as next week, according to people familiar with the company’s plans.
Spartacus (or whatever it ends up being called) aims to be a direct competitor to Xbox’s Game Pass, a service that’s proven to be incredibly popular since its launch alongside the Xbox Series X. The promise of unlimited access to more than 100 AAA games (and still growing) for as little as $10 each month has drawn in more than 25 million subscribers.
