PS Now - can anything be downloaded?

[OnTheSauce]

Hi all,

Recently bought a PS Now sub. Fine. However, I'm finding it a bit messy having not done this before.

Example - F1 2019. Apparently £50 odd quid to purchase, but I assume that means to download and use offline, but there's a download option that doesn't appear to charge? Is that to use purely online?

Then, there's the catalogue of random, mostly crappy, games that are apparently free to download and use whenever?

My question is, how can I see what's free to download on PS Now and what isn't? I'm sure there's an easier way than what I'm resorting to here...

Cheers

The free one will be a trial. F1 2019 is not free it is a current AAA title.
However this month F1 allowed to trial to work as a full game because of the lockdown.
Although 50 quid os a bit steep, shop around for cheaper places to buy it.

The easiest way is to look at a wiki page.
The second easiest is to look in the See All Games —> PS Now Collection Downloadable section in PS Now.

It’s not a demo of F1 2019, it’s the full game available for a further 216 days. It’s also currently £12.99 on the PS Store if you want to own it without a PS Now subscription.

If you download a PS Now game and stop your subscription, amongst other requirements, your access to the downloaded (ie offline) game stops.

Many thanks for the info. Just realised I posted this on the wrong section, oops.

I'm downloading F1 2019 now and it hasn't said anything about charging me outside of my subscription, which is what I was after. Cool!

Still not the most straightforward thing I've used..

Cheers
