PlayStation Plus Premium classical games are now confirmed to support up to 60Hz refresh rate in North America.
The all-new subscription service of Sony PlayStation finally lands in the North American region, bringing tons of new gaming titles to choose from. It offers classical and iconic offerings from PSOne.
PlayStation Plus Premium
Initially, subscribers of the all-new PlayStation Plus Premium tier expected its lineup of classical titles to be in its PAL version, which, unfortunately, only achieves up to 50Hz.
The assumption comes as the launch of the new Sony service in a few Asian nations debuted the classical games in PAL 50hz, according to a recent report by Video Games Chronicles.
It is worth noting that some players are a bit frustrated with the PAL versions as it comes with a slower refresh rate of only 50Hz. It also brings lower frame rates.
Meanwhile, as per a news story by IGN, the PAL version of the iconic titles on the Sony PlayStation typically makes it to regions like Australia and Europe.
It should be noted that most gamers actually prefer to get their hands on the NTSC version. Who wouldn't want to run these nostalgic titles at a faster 60Hz?
PlayStation Plus Premium Classic Games at 60Hz
But here's the good news. Sony decided to give subscribers of PlayStation Plus Premium the NTSC version of the classic games.
The Japanese tech giant has already confirmed that the 60Hz version of its classic lineup is available to its subscribers in North America.
So, instead of getting the much slower PAL 50Hz version of the classic games on PlayStation Plus Premium, North American folks are in for a treat.
IGN notes in its report that Sony previously rolled out the PAL version of its classic titles in 2018. It was when the tech giant debuted its mini-console, the PlayStation Classic.
But the move of Sony to release its games in the PAL version got the ire of the passionate fans of the classical gaming titles. This time, PlayStation appears to have listened to the clamor of its players.

Without further ado, here is the full list of PlayStation classic games, which supports up to 60Hz in North America.
The PlayStation Plus Premium catalog includes Ape Escape, Echochrome, and HotShots Golf. Nostalgic titles like I.Q Intelligent Qube, Jumping Flash, and Mr. Driller also join the lineup.
The trip down the memory lane does not end there. The list of classic PlayStation games would not be complete without Oddworld, Resident Evil Director's Cut, and Syphon Filter.
Not to mention titles like Tekken 2, Wild Arms, Worms Armageddon, and Worms World Party.
