Rumor has it that Sony's been sitting on an Xbox Game Pass competitor since at least last December. However, without official acknowledgment from Sony, the previous reports of the so-called "Project Spartacus" remain hearsay, at best.
But, this hasn't stopped eagle-eyed observers from chasing down potential hints, such as when Sony started pulling PS Now cards from physical stores back in January.
While Sony's plans for its video game subscription services remain a mystery, subscribers now believe that they have the biggest piece of evidence proving that "Project Spartacus" exists.
Over the past 24 hours, numerous PS Now subscribers have flocked to online discussion boards and forums such as Reddit and ResetEra to report what's happening to their accounts. According to their statements, Sony has automatically been converting PS Now subscriptions to PS Plus without prior notice. What's interesting is that the offerings didn't change at all. Not to mention, a handful of PS Plus subscribers also appear to be getting access to PS Now as well. Many have taken this as Sony's way of merging both services under one umbrella, hinting at an official rollout of Project Spartacus soon.
