The console parent Sony is a renowned film distributor and publisher. In 2021, it launched a movie streaming service called the ‘Bravia Core’ that streamed Sony-labeled movies on Bravia TVs and some specific devices. However, the company has decided to rebrand the service and cater the idea to the parents’ most hardcore fanbase, the gaming fans.

Through a blog post, Sony announces changing the Sony Pictures Core, (formerly called Bravia Core) in collaboration with PlayStation 5 and PlayStation 4. This massive merger would allow the console players to access a catalog of up to 2,000 Sony-produced movies. These include Uncharted, Spider-Man: No Way Home, Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse, Ghostbusters, and many more.
Owners will be able to rent or buy these titles from the console. The idea was also to provide access to the PlayStation owners to some exclusive Sony-produced features. This year’s classic release Gran Turismo became the first feature film to be available in early access through Sony Pictures Core.
What’s special for PlayStation Plus Subscribers?
The best of the benefits have been saved for PlayStation Plus subscribers. Premium and Deluxe members will be able to access up to 100 movies from the catalog and stream them ad-free on the console. Moreover, the movie catalog would be shuffled periodically to bring Sony’s best of works to the table.
The Xbox Game Pass also has a Halloween surprise!
If you’re an Xbox owner, there’s a great offer for you as well. Recently, the Microsoft console has brought the iconic horror slasher movie Texas Chainsaw to Xbox Game Pass Ultimate.
