PlayStation’s Gamescom press conference did mention that if you wanted to upgrade your PS3 game to the PS4 digital version, it will be a snap to do so. Basically, the steps are pretty much simple, and all you need to do is make sure you have a PS4 come this November 15th in North America and you’re good to go. The four titles that are eligible for this particular upgrade path include Assassin’s Creed IV Black Flag, Call of Duty: Ghosts, Watch_Dogs, and Battlefield 4.
Whenever you decide to pick up the Blu-ray Disc or digital version of these select PS3 titles, you will be on the receiving end of an entitlement for a limited time only to download a PS4 digital copy of the same game via the PlayStation Store as it becomes available. The asking price? Just $9.99 and you can enjoy next generation graphics on current games. Of course, to play the PS4 version of the game as it is available eventually would require you to insert the original PS3 disc in your PS4 as a form of activation, so do not use the PS3 disc as a frisbee for your dog while you wait! Which other titles do you think should take a similar upgrade path?
