B.C., Mexico
MEX as in Mexico? Anyway if yes, I got all of them without issues, I didn't get a message saying it wasn't available here; the only thing that I doubt it's available here, it's the funimation trial.

I found out that it's because I already own it (I was sure I bought the game with my US account, but I was wrong). So, when you own a game from the list, it simply reads unavailable, instead of purchased.

It's a shame that Astro Bot never got a non-VR conversion. Having a Quest 2 has made the idea of the PSVR and its rat's nest of cables pretty unappealing, regardless of how much I want to play that one game.

Girl, since I bought my PS5 I haven't even had the need to buy any new games. I can barely play through all the free ones. I'm actually accumulating a backlog of free games lmao.

How/where do I redeem the Funimation offer in the UK?
Looks like the offer is live at:

Funimation | Subscription

Sign Up to Watch anime and Asian Drama on FUNimation.com. Watch anime episodes and trailers; get news updates.

The PS5 app startup page points to that site. The first thing it says is:
"Thanks for downloading Funimation on your PlayStation®5.
Check your inbox for your promo code before starting a new account and redeem to get 3 months extra access"

So you might want to download the app first on PS4/PS5.

Added the games to my library.......I mean to my backlog

With this and the news yesterday that Sony will be paying a 7 month salary bonus to their employees they really are doing a good job instead of using their profits to fatten the CEO pockets.

The Wakanim offer only works on PS4, not on PS5 because there is no Wakanim app on PS5 yet. Well done Sony!

Having loved Astrobots playroom on my PS5, I'm really looking forward to playing Rescue Mission, but I gotta wait for the new PS5VR first as I never believed PSVR was worth the investment on PS4.
Thanks for the free games Sony!

Does Astro Bot require PS VR or it can be played without it too? Cus there is no logo on top of it that says PS VR required like the other games.

Time to dust off my PSVR for Paper Beasts and Rez.

First time I'm using the headset with my PS5.

Don't have a VR or plan on having but I will still download/add them, that way those teams still get their money.

Can't find a lot of the games on the search.
Any idea why?


Edit: Disregard that, I couldn't find the specific page for the games.
Do I really need to download them before april?

If you open the store up there's a banner with all the games right at the top. Same in the app when you navigate to the store tab.
I could add them all to the library from the website.

I've seen a couple of people ask this. I hope this isn't bad advice but I'm +95% certain that you can just add them to your library for DL'ing at a later time of your choosing.

Unless there's a different policy for the play at home thing (which would be unexpected and annoying!).

You need to claim them before they leave, which is April 22nd (23rd for Europe but they leave at like 0300 on the 23rd so pretty much just consider that the 22nd). You do not need to specifically download them, just claim them so they're added to your account and visible in your download list.

Yeah, I was on the blog page and couldn't find anything linking me to that specific page, I found it once I went into the store's main page.
btw, the new store's search is ass. couldn't find either the witness or gungeon.

I need to power on my ps4 then lol
I am 100% sure I have them already, but it's never a bad idea to check again.

Heads up on the funimation 3 month trial. It seems to be a rolling continuation during the trial, so if you cancel before the last period of the trial begins, you won't get the following weeks/months. At least, my trail (after cancelling the subscription to avoid paying when the trial is up) now says I will revert to a basic account in exactly 2 weeks time, so maybe it's fortnightly.

I wasn't at all interested in watching it myself, but did it anyway just to see and to give my son options over the Easter break. So he's got the first week covered at least, lol.

I think the idea here is that there'll be a code emailed to anyone who signs up for the trial that adds 3 months to the default 2-week subscription. So until you get the code, the expiration date is just reflecting the standard two-week trial period.

Ah OK, thanks for that I'll scratch that post.

I just added the Subnautica (Abzu on my PS Now, The Witness on my PS Plus). The rest is like a fucking VR commercial.

Nothing wrong with that imo, Rez infinite plays on the TV as well, and Astro & Moss are two of the best VR games there are on any platform. So if they can entice people in to their VR ecosystem while offering free game good will that only makes good business sense to me... and if PSVR 2 ends up backwards compatible with the current games, absolutely zero point not just grabbing these for a potential future where they will get played.

Added pretty much everything except Abzu and Rez which I already own. Games I genuinely wanted to play one day especially Witness.

I don't understand the funimation offer at all. You need to create a brand new account? Credit card only? Sub to the 2 week trial and hope a code comes before then? Confusing

Everyone, play The Witness.

I'd love to give Astro Bot and Moss a go, but my PSVR is across the ocean :/

Sorry if this has been asked already, but are any of the Psvr games playable with the Dualsense?

They are. Each game's individual page will tell you the requirements/optional controllers.

This is for Paper Beast for instance:
