PlayStation is launching the Play Collective

Is it deals with gold? Is it pre-order discounts? No one knows

PlayStation is launching the 'Play Collective' program which will discount six games for PS Plus members – if they pre-order.

The Play Collective is PlayStation's "special game promotions at PlayStation Store" which will be launching this month, March 21. Play Collective will come with a shifting set of sales and campaigns for digital games on the PlayStation Store. Unlike other weekly deal programs, like Xbox's Deals with Gold, Play Collective will, to begin with, only come with one game per week.

This particular Play Collective will go on for six weeks and starts off with 'Everything', the game Everything — not everything in the store, unfortunately. PS Plus members get a 20 percent discount when pre-ordering any of the games that are a part of Play Collective.

The games part of this Play Collective and the date their deal kicks can be found below:

  • 3/21 – Everything
  • 3/28 – Rain World
  • 4/11 – Cosmic Star Heroine
  • 4/25 – What Remains of Edith Finch

PlayStation kickstarts their Play Collective program with a strong line-up of indie games. How long PlayStation decides to keep their newly founded Play Collective, and how often they will launch new collectives, remains to be seen. For now, PS Plus members have one more thing to look forward to besides their monthly free games.
