Interestingly, earlier this week, PlayStation also asked the retailers in the United Kingdom to remove PS Now cards from their shelves. And going by the reports, it could mean that a fresh service might be unveiled by PlayStation. It is being codenamed Spartacus at the moment.

How the above-mentioned news connects with past-gen games getting backward compatibility on PlayStation 5 is through recent rumors. They suggest that the speculated new subscription-based service will not only include PS Now and PS Plus, but will also allow players to run PS1, PS2, and PS3 titles via backward compatibility.

Currently, the overall news can be taken as a rumor since there hasn’t been an official announcement. Till an announcement is made, eager fans of PlayStation must take all of the mentioned information with a grain of salt.

What are your thoughts on the tweet shared by Jordan? Do you think it was a technical glitch from PlayStation’s side or is PlayStation actually bringing the backward compatibility to older consoles? Let us know in the comments.
