For example, internet sleuths just found out that the first two Syphon Filter games, as well as Dark Mirror and Logan’s Shadow, have all been re-rated in Korea for the PlayStation 4 and the PlayStation 5. The timing of the new listings all but confirms that Sony is adding the aforementioned titles to the Premium tier of the revamped PlayStation Plus as part of the “beloved classic games” catalog of the three-tiered subscription service. Weirdly enough, 2001’s Syphon Filter 3 for the original PlayStation and 2004’s Syphon Filter: The Omega Strain for the PS2 was not rated. Sony made the new look PlayStation Plus official in March, but fans aren’t exactly happy. In particular, many have expressed their disappointment that Sony is still not adding new titles to the PS Plus library on day one. To make matters worse, day one launches isn’t something that the console manufacturer expects to do anytime soon for the PS Plus. If it’s any consolation, fans won’t have to wait for long to find out more about the retooled PS Plus. According to Sony’s most recent update, Asian subscribers will get first dibs on the PS Plus in late May, followed by Japan, and then the rest of the world. However, we’re still unsure what to make of each tier. While it would be nice to see 4 out of 6 Syphon Filter games come to the PS Plus, we doubt that they’re enough to justify the asking price of the Extra tier ($99.99 a year) or Premium tier ($119.99 a year). Hopefully, Jim Ryan, the CEO of Sony Interactive Entertainment, wasn’t lying when he said that Sony had already secured the participation of big-time publishers. If true, then the PS Plus library has a legit shot at competing against the Game Pass even if it has a different way of presenting its offerings.
