Battlefield 4 PS3-to-PS4 upgrade done via in-box code

4.5
Specially marked retail copies of Battlefield 4 for PS3 will include a one-time use voucher allowing you to upgrade to the PS4 digital version of the game for a small price. This is how the "discounted" upgrade scheme will work, first announced by Sony president Andrew House last month during the company's Gamescom keynote.

Presumably this is how other eligible PS3 games can transition into their PS4 counterparts, though we've followed up with Sony for confirmation.

Only four games are participating in this promotion as of right now: Call of Duty: Ghosts, Assassin's Creed 4: Black Flag, Watch Dogs and Battlefield 4. The pricing to go from PS3 to PS4 version for each game is determined by the publishers.

Oasis What about the fact that Xbox is offering a guaranteed 40gbp trade in value at GAME (UK) for BF4 on 360, when people want to upgrade.


That makes zero sense. The game is worth little to nothing without the online pass. Where did you read that?


EA games no longer have online passes. What are you on about?

Where did I read it huh? Try booting up BF3 and you'll see it on the title menu. YOU make zero sense with your serious lack of basic knowledge, still thinking there were online passes lol. What a tool.
Someones a bit outdated hah...

Yin If is comes with Xbox and Ghosts, that will be so helpful and amazing. I have a friend that only can play on the 360, but I would love to play it on the Xbox One if he isn't on or something. I'd happily pay $10 for that.


I agree, it's awesome you can just upgrade your game for $10

NSC i think i will have to get this


Apparently it only costs $10 to upgrade so i see it as worth buying for the PS3 first


$10 for an upgrade in the price is relatively cheap for a digital copy anyways I have a PS3 so the $10 is not that much. And considering I am getting the majority of my games for PS3 for a while yet.

Lia I hope the xbox will take this idea and do it to more games. It would be much easier and faster than going to the store.


It would certainly be great if both companies could do this. Hopefully more games will be released on both platforms with an optional upgrade in the future


I can see both companies doing this if Microsoft don't then it's a loss for them the system works well and others will benefit from it.
