PS Plus not required. Tested working

The one listed on the store as PS4 only is the trial version. There's also the Game + Theme PS4 version for $69.95.
Whereas the one we're getting for free on this is the PS4 + PS5 standard edition release. It's the full standard edition game for PS4 and PS5.
It's a great game.
Will probably never play it, not the least because I don't touch the PS5.
But free is free, and it worked for me. Cheers OP!
Cheers, seemed to work for me, I guess we'll see if it sticks.
absolute legend thanks!
Worked thanks. 3.711 GB download.
But the thing is will it actually let you start the game and play?.
Sure does.
Thanks that's good to know.
Worked here was able to claim it.
Worked. Thank you
I got the game without getting the trial, both Blades of the Shogun and Standard Edition show free for me on the PS App. Thanks anyway, I own it on the PC, so, I'll probably only play it on that anyway.
🥳🥳🫡🫡
Thank you so much!
Checking Ozbargain nearly every hour has finally paid off BIG TIME! 🥹
I KNOW RIGHT
"Those are rookie numbers, you’ve gotta pump those numbers up"
Nice, thanks OP
If you are on PC, you might already have this and the standalone expansion Aiko's Choice in your Epic Games Library thanks to it been given out for free before.

Worked for me. I still have a shrink wrapped copy of this game 🥲
Is this trick also applicable to other games with free trial? Lol
Missed it
They’ve patched it
must have missed it , its not working now
It's "free" on PS Plus also.
Yes but this is free to keep, no paid subscription required.
It's still showing as purchased on my account. So it looks all good for those who got to claim. I guess they honoured it.
Good tactics Op, this one stuck the landing. The 4k resolution works wonders on ps5, but I will be mostly playing this on remote play.
Already played and finished. Great game.
