In recent weeks, rumors had already arisen about the structure that this new subscription service would have, dividing into “classes” with distinct prices, each with their own advantages and characteristics. On Blomberg, well-known journalist and insider Jason Schreier wanted to say about him on Project Spartacus, revealing it as an announcement from PlayStation is imminent.

According to Schreier, the first Spartacus tier will be practically equal to the PlayStation Plus, which is required to play online and to receive some free games every month. The second would instead be more smileys at the Game Pass, offering a catalog of 300 games freely accessible by users. Finally speaking of the third level, it will allow players to try PS1, PS2, PS3 and even PSP gamesalong with demo versions and the ability to play in cloud streaming. It should be added, however, that Spartacus will not release first-party titles on day one on its platform. The existence of this new PlayStation service is now practically an established fact, and it is a matter of a few hours before it is definitively revealed in the eyes of users: Schreier claims that during this week it will be officially presented, and considering how he is a rather reliable source within the industry, so we just have to wait for the moment when this happens.
