Some of today's most popular gam🌄es are included in the promotion, such as Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War, Crash Bandicoot 4: It's About Time, Ghost of Tsushima, and Assassin's Creed Valhalla. And – thanks to this new update – you can rest assured that you'll be running the proper version of these cross-gen games.
