PlayStation Plus new free game has subscribers wondering why they pay $150 a year

Does this PlayStation Plus free game justify $150 a year?

Regardless of the tier that you may subscribe to, PlayStation Plus offers its customers a decent amount of value. Otherwise, why would you be subscribing? Yet, there is one addition that has a customer wondering why they pay $150 a year for the service.

For the most basic tier, PS Plus Essential grants subscribers a selection of monthly new additions that you can keep in your library with an active subscription. PS Plus Extra offers everything included in the Essential tier, but with far more PS5 and PS4 games to choose from. As for PS Plus Premium/Deluxe, you get everything included in the previous two tiers, but with a wide selection of retro games, trials, cloud streaming and much more.

Furthermore, if you subscribe to either the PS Plus Extra or Premium/Deluxe tier, you will gain access to a selection of Ubisoft titles from series’ such as Assassin’s Creed, South Park, Far Cry, The Division, Watch Dogs, and Rainbow Six to name a few. Oh, and also Uno.

In case you didn't know, Uno is a popular multiplayer card game in which the first player to eliminate all of the opposing player's cards wins the game. To be fair, it can be a fun time to play with friends, but it’s not exactly a selling point of Sony’s PlayStation Plus service. What’s more, since its first video game adaptation was released for Xbox 360 in 2006, that version hasn't changed all that much, for better or worse.

“Glad I pay $150 a year for this,” exclaimed Redditor MoltoSupreme. “That Uno game is hella rigged btw. The bots all gang up against you,” replied Global_Service_1094. However, much of the thread has jumped to the defence of the legendary card game.



“You know that you can download like 400 games more than just Uno? By the way, Uno is fun,” suggested Ni_Ce. “Would you rather Uno not be there or…?” said Stampj. “Uno with friends is a 10/10 experience that wipes 99% of games,” claimed kujoswag.

While Uno most certainly doesn't offer anything groundbreaking in this modern age of gaming, there are far worse games to choose from on PlayStation Plus. Moreover, if you can gather a few friends locally or online, the chances are that you’ll all have a lot of fun playing this classic and ruining friendships in the process.

Uno is available on just about every video game platform possible, as well as in its traditional physical form, of course.
