PS3 Games Appear On PS4 PlayStation Store
A number of PlayStation 3 titles have appeared on the PlayStation 4’s store. The titles can be found by going to Day-1 Digital in the store and then filtering for PlayStation 3 games.
The three titles–Dead Island Riptide, Ben 10 Omniverse, and MX vs ATV Alive–all appear as “Free.” However, they can’t be downloaded, and only give “overview” and “recommendation” options on the product page.

We’ve reached out to Sony for information and will update should we hear back.
Our Take
This is likely related to PlayStation Now testing, and these titles might be showing up for all users in error (hence the “free” price tag). We’re eager to see the service in the real world across different systems, as all we’ve had the opportunity to experience so far has been with a very local server.
I’d like to ask you to support Game Informer’s continued coverage of games with a subscription. For less than two dollars per issue, we mail you a full year of 10 print magazines, each with cover stories and preview features filled with exclusive details about the most exciting upcoming games. We profile and interview game creators. We look back on the rich history of gaming, and we celebrate what’s next.
Here on the website, we offer much of our content for free, including game reviews, daily news, videos, event coverage, and more – all with minimal ads.
We do so with a small editorial team, alongside contributing paid writers from around the world – over 65 individuals from 9 countries around the world, just in the last couple of years.
It’s not possible without support.
In a time when game makers and games coverage have faced hard struggles and layoffs, the future of this 30+ year magazine and community is at risk. Our new standalone magazine subscription is the number one way you can keep us alive – and we believe you’ll get a pretty fantastic gaming magazine in your mailbox every few weeks for your trouble.
Thank you.
