  • Our friends at Funimation (a joint venture of Sony Pictures Entertainment and Aniplex of Japan) are kicking in a very special offer: extended access for new subscribers to Funimation or Wakanim in the countries they are available **. Funimation is an anime-focused subscription service and Wakanim is Funimation’s European division. While there will be additional details to follow, this offer is only available to our community who sign up for and download the Funimation (in the United States, Canada, United Kingdom, Ireland, Australia, and New Zealand) or Wakanim apps (in most of Western and Northern Europe) starting on March 25 for a limited time. 

With the way that the game releases are structured, we can expect to see 6-8 games given away by the end of June.

It also appears that this will be available to all PS4/PS5 owners, not just PS Plus subscribers.

But, for the PS Plus subscribers, make sure you check out our hub for the upcoming PS Plus games for March 2021 as well as our predictions for what will be on offer.
