Anyone can sign up to Sony Pictures Core for free but it’s essentially a storefront. You can rent and purchase films but if you’re a premium PS Plus subscriber, you’ll gain instant access toa library of over 100 filmsto watch which will update on occasion. One user didn’t look into exactly what films they’d be receiving though, slamming the line-up as “garbage” and “false advertising”.

Reddit user ShadoHazardwrote, “Sony Pictures Core is such false advertising. I’ve spent the past week trying to figure out my issue with why I wasn’t able to sign into the app. Just got that sorted a moment ago and I finally get to watch the movies I upgraded my PS+ for. […] Literally all the movies on the app’s background and marketing are not included? All we get are old B-list movies? I just paid for premium … for garbage? I was looking forward to watchingSpider-Verseonce I sorted out my issue. Now I finally do and I don’t even get that?”

“It screams false advertising with their new, ‘streaming service that’s included in PS+ premium’ and the background is a load of triple-A movies. I guess it pays to read the fine print lol. What a joke,” they continued. It’s true that Sony Pictures Core displaysSpider-Man Across The Spider-Verse, 65, andGhostbusters Afterlifein most of its advertising. It doesn’t state they’re available in the PS Plus catalogue though, instead describing the line-up as consisting of “up to 100 movies”, listingLooper, Kingsglaive: Final Fantasy XV, Elysium, andResident Evil Damnationas examples - dependent on your territory.
