The Ubisoft+ premium subscription service, currently available on the PC, Google Stadia and Amazon Luna, is officially expanding onto PlayStation platforms in the near future (and Xbox too, apparently)… but wait, there’s more.

Those who subscribe to Sony’s upcoming higher tier (Extra/Premium) PlayStation Plus plans will get access to a curated library of titles known as “Ubisoft+ Classics” for no additional charge. Those will include popular games such as Child of Light, Far Cry 3 Blood Dragon, Far Cry 4, STEEP South Park: The Fractured but Whole, The Crew 2, Trials Rising and Watch_Dogs to start but will expand to 50 titles by the end of the year when it launches next month in North America.
