There was a report earlier this month that said Sony Interactive Entertainment has plans to merge PlayStation Plus and PlayStation Now on the PS5 and PS4 into a single service that will come in three tiers. It has the codename of Spartacus.
The first tier includes existing PlayStation Plus benefits, the second includes a large catalog of PlayStation 4 and, eventually, PlayStation 5 titles, while the third includes extended demos, game streaming, and a library of classic PlayStation, PlayStation 2, PlayStation 3, and PSP games.
