Can I play an online game from one account if a second account has PS Plus?
I have black ops 3 as a free monthly game on an old account.
I have a new account now but I'm never renewing my plus for the old account, I only ever use the new one.
So if I renew for the new account (the account that doesn't have the game) will I be able to play Black Ops 3 if the old account is still signed in?
Best Answer
You'll have to purchase the game for the new account as your current PS+ account does not have a record of the game being tied to it. You can try asking Sony support if they can close your old account and transfer the purchase records but I suspect you cannot.

From my experience with PSN, the games got via PSN Plus will be locked when the subscription ends.
