The new streaming service will release with close to 100 games total with varying price ranges and rental periods. Being one of the few to have a look at the beta myself, I&#8217;ve seen rental period options of 1, 7 and 30 days. There have also been reports of a subscription service to be available to customers as well, which would allow players to take advantage of many games at an easy to manage price.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/theculturednerd.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/06\/playstation_now_beta.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter  wp-image-13170\" src=\"http:\/\/theculturednerd.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/06\/playstation_now_beta.jpg\" alt=\"playstation_now_beta\" width=\"587\" height=\"330\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>As expected, pricing points will vary for each individual game and rental period. For example, there will be shorter rental periods priced as low as $2.99, and most titles will be between $2.99 and $19.99. As with all content published on PlayStation platforms, publishers and developers will ultimately decide their game price points. Furthermore, SCE plans to offer subscription options in the future.<\/p>\n<p>Additionally, while Sony only noted a beta date for North America, the company mentioned that it will continue to prepare the service for Europe and Japan.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>PlayStation Now will be available to the United States and parts of Canada on July 31st.
