Questions about God of War and TLoU2 on PS5 (plus/now related)

[elenarie]

Heya, this may be something very specific, but was thinking of playing through the games without having to buy them. Have a retail PS5 sitting nearby not doing much. Does anyone know if:

* I can run God of War in 60 fps on the PS5, if I get it via the PS Plus subscription thingy? Or do I have to buy the game for some PS5 version?
* Similarly, what about TLoU2 via PS Now? Would I be able to download (and not stream) the game and run it in 60 fps if subscribed to PS Now, or do I need to buy the game?

I don't really care to own the games, just wanna play through them once while I have this PS5 around. Sadly, Sony doesn't make it easy to know what's what in their PS5 store.

As long as you download both you can play 60. If you stream they run like on PS4.

I believe TLOU2 is gone as of now btw

ps4 and ps5 games can be downloaded onto the console locally through ps now, so they act like normal versions.

And yes, GOW and TLOU 2 will run at 60 fps on ps5

yeah they are still only ps4 games with latest patches making them run 60fps on ps5.
there is no other ps5 build for them.

Aha, nice, thanks, then I guess I'll see what the cheapest options are.

Bah, you're right, it is in there for the next two days only. I guess I'll skip this for now.

It is well worth playing if you do end up getting access at some point.

Yea just finished 1 like a few hours ago, so I'll eventually get to 2 at some point. With a bunch of games in the backlog, may as well check back during another sale. :D

Neither of these games have a native PS5 version, both run at 60 in PS4 back compat, download both and go!

Both digital/physical versions of gow and Tlou2 run at 60fps on the ps5.

Both are simply enhanced BC patches, not native PS5 versions. Any fully-patched PS4 copy will run at 60fps when played on PS5
