Each month, Sony throws a few more games at PlayStation Now, its subscription service that lets you stream - and with a recent overhaul, download - hundreds of titles past and present. In a new post on the North American PlayStation Blog, the platform holder details 11 new games making the jump to PS Now, and they come in all shapes and sizes. Here's the list of November's new additions:
- Baja Edge of Control HD
- Battle Chasers: Nightwar
- Destroy All Humans! (PS2)
- Destroy All Humans! 2 (PS2)
- Guilty Gear Xrd Rev 2
- Harvest Moon: Save the Homeland (PS2)
- LocoRoco Remastered
- Mafia III
- Steep
- Vikings: Wolves of Midgard
- World to the West
Mafia III and Steep will probably be the games that catch most people's attention from this lineup, but the Destroy All Humans! games are worth a look for a quick laugh, and LocoRoco Remastered presents a great opportunity to play one of the PSP's best loved titles. All the above games can be streamed to PS4 or PC, and downloaded locally to your console.
Elsewhere, PlayStation Now is getting a small but useful update with the addition of 'Collections'. Essentially, this is a new way for the service to sort the vast number of games it offers, grouping them together by platform, genre, themes, and presumably more. This is rolling out to PS Now subscribers over the next week, so if you don't have the new option yet, it's on its way shortly.
Are you happy with this PlayStation Now update? What will you be streaming, or downloading? Please don't actually destroy any humans in the comments below.

Great additions to the service, especially Mafia 3 and Steep. Hopefully they will be added to the EU as well, because there is a disparity between what games are available in what region at the moment.
Good to see they're finally taking PS Now a bit more seriously. There's some good additions here.
@Kidfried You can. Been playing Asura’s Wrath & been getting trophies for it.
Can’t take screenshots for PS3 games though.
Looking forward to trying out Steep! Timely.
Already got Mafia 3 through PS+.
PS now is starting to look half decent, problem is I don't have enough free time to olay the games I buy let alone these
@tomassi That is if the EU remembers about the service.
To my knowledge this is the first Ubisoft game on the service. Hopefully the big publishers will finally start supporting it
@AdamNovice 2K not Ubisoft
Pretty good update.
Good to see Guilty Gear Xrd Rev 2 in the list. Hopefully this means I can finally get into an online match for once...
@Kidfried hey! I'll be honest (and maybe I'm weird, or so it seems) but I literally have zero interest in trophies. There I said it. I got it off my chest. Phew, what a relief!!
So the answer to your question is, yes I have PS Now but I have no idea about trophies on there!
@Fight_Teza_Fight They seem to be putting most PS Plus games on there which has led me to not bother renewing Plus and just stick with Now instead. I don't play online anyway, so I think Now is actually the better deal.
@ZeD Haha, the communication is shoddy isn't it. For a massive company trying to sell a product to people, Sony do a terrible job of it.
@TheArt Steep is made by Ubisoft
@Neolit I too actually really like Mafia 3. I think it got harshly reviewed when it came out. To be honest, I'd be happy just driving around listening to the soundtrack if nothing else!
@tomassi In the past, games have been updated for a week before they posted about them! XD
@Neolit Yeah, I've not played tons of it so maybe never got to the point where it gets boring or repetitive, but what I've played I thought it is really good fun! Can't beat burning down the road with the sounds of Creedence Clearwater Revival blasting out the stereo!
@ZeD I know, it's really shocking isn't it. I can't believe they don't have a set day for a guaranteed announcement like PS Plus does. I mean, it costs £85.99 per year for gods sake, they should at least pretend they value the customers who spend that much on it!!
@Kidfried yeah I've not put in anywhere near as much as 20 hours so probably haven't got to the boring repetition yet. Now I have RDR2, I doubt I ever will either!!
@theart Yeah I was referring to Steep
@AdamNovice @tomassi Okay, thought Mafia 3.
Collections update sounds promising, but I still prefer owning my games over renting them.
