NEWS: PlayStation Plus Required for PS4 Multiplayer Games

New video highlighting the benefits of PS Plus on PS4  has been released, showing what there is to offer.

Sony have released a promotional PlayStation Plus video, heavily focusing on its uses for the upcoming PS4 console later this month.

Having a subscription of the service will now be a must if you're wanting to play PS4 multiplayer games - "Play incredible online multiplayer games on PS4."

Shuhei Yoshida, Sony Worldwide Studios boss spoke with Japanese magazine Famitsu earlier in the week to explain why the service would be required for online play:

"The main pillar for the PS4 will be online play. We're developing many new ways to play and connect which requires a large investment of resources."

"Considering the cost, to try to keep such a service fre and consequently lower the quality would be absurd. We decided that if that's the case, then it would be better to receive proper payment and continue to offer a good service."

The first free games for the PS4 will be Res0gun and Contrast - DriveClub was supposed to be on that list, but is now delayed until early 2014.
