The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt appears to be coming to PS Now, as part of the subscription’s 1st June update. A leaked lineup shared on the service’s Reddit page shows the open world RPG as the flagship addition, where it’s flanked by a trio of Sonic titles. It’s worth noting that this image was uploaded prior to SEGA’s livestream earlier today, where it was confirmed that Sonic Forces, Team Sonic Racing, and Sonic Mania would all be added next week.
Given that the Sonic games have now been announced, we’re going to assume this is accurate. You’ll also spy Car Mechanic Simulator on the ribbon, which presumably will be another addition on 1st June. That rounds out a pretty strong selection – especially when you consider that Virtua Fighter 5: Ultimate Showdown will also be added to PS Now, alongside PS Plus. Sony should make the lineup official next week.

They Might As Well Throw In Cyberpunk Along With It.
Is it normal if I sung the sub-title?
...
Now it's stuck in my head!!
@Just_2_milky Don't worry, it's stuck in mine now as well!
Unreal pun in the headline that not everyone will pick up on.
@ShogunRok Oof, I spotted it now you’ve mentioned it. Earned a groan, which is the highest honour for a pun.
Maybe CDPR and Sony are patching things up?
Which means that it'll be on ps+ around 3 months later.
Awesome, not like it is constantly discounted to like 10 in most platforms except Switch
Is there anyone who hasn't gotten it yet? I think i've seen it for as low as 5 euros on store sales.
@Nem I haven't played it yet as I'm so behind with game! On the plus side i get my subscription money's worth with these Playstation Plus monthly games.
PS5 upgraded version on plus seems inevitable now.
In theory The Witcher is strong AAA to add to Now. In reality it's a 6/7 year old game that most people have played and usually costs less than a tenner every other month in a sale. If they even suggest that this is a timed exclusive, that's going to be embarrassing.
Yeah im just wondering who doesn't have this by now, considering it's probably been on sale about a thousand times, and any sort of interest in rpg or fantasy you just could not pass this up for 6 or 7 years
Witcher 3 would be a hard game to get into these days. I don’t think it aged very well at all, I remember playing it in 2017, felt really clunky and you really gotta work to get used to feel of the game, then I took a break for a few weeks after I went overseas, when I tried to play again I had pretty much forgotten all the controls and I couldn’t be bothered relearning everything.
I think this is definitely an overrated game but if you take the time to learn the clunky feel then you can end up enjoying it quite a lot.
@Nem The GOTY edition never went below 10e and it was always 15e just recently they dropped the price to 10e on sales so no it's not 5e
@OthmaneAD We don't know it will be the GOTY edition. Often these services are used to encourage DLC sales.
@OthmaneAD - It's been as low as £6.99 for the GOTY version from the store. The lowest price for the regular version was £4.99.
@Janeo99 I started it just a few weeks ago after not being able to get into it some years back, I know what you mean about the feel but I wouldn't say its necessarily hard to get into! The story pulls you in right away and the systems are challenging to learn but immensely rewarding
@OthmaneAD I was talking about the base edition. Notice how i didn't say GOTY edition?
Article doesn't say it's the goty edition either so... you came up with that one yourself.
ffs i only bought it the other month... : (
Having only played and completed it recently for the first time, it'll need more than a lick of paint/ray tracing to bring it up to modern day standards.
A very heavy “classic Sega” line-up. Might as well add in a few others to PS Now while they’re at it, like Nights, Golden Axe (PS3), Jet Set Radio, Toe Jam & Earl, Shenmue I, II, and III, Bayonetta, Fist of the North Star, Super Monkey Ball Blitz, Vanquish, and Judgment...and the Sega Genesis Classics collection, too.
Heck, where’s a remastered Seaman when you need it? And why haven’t they made a Shinobi game since 2011’s 3DS version? Oy.😋
Toss a coin to Pee essS Now, OH valley of empty, OH valley of emptyyy....
Toss a coin to Pee esssS Now, the selections a tradgedyyyyy...ohwhoawhoa
@Nem the leak says it's the GOTY edition.
I already own this game both physically and digitally, but more people that can play this the better!
@Milktastrophe I see. I didn't click on the leak itself.
Still it's a lot of detailing for little. 5 or 10 euros. The point is mantained that whoever wanted to play it probably already got it.
I like the game but I feel like almost everyone who wants to play it has already done so.I’m actually more excited about the sonic games. They are something I would never buy . Witcher is just getting a bit dated
For all 7 people who haven't bought it on it's many ridiculous sales yet have a PS Now Sub...
@Nem It is the GOTY edition.
