Should the correct translation of Play now be Juega ahora or Jugar ahora?
I've seen a lot translation Jugar ahora, but isn't it incorrect and should be Juega ahora since Jugar is infinitive, or
Jugar ahora is also correct?
Thanks.

Juega ahora / jugar ahora / jugá ahora
For me, all alternatives are correct. To choose one will depend on the context and the tone you want to give it.
Juega ahora: sounds more like an invitation
Jugá ahora: imperative cognotation
Jugar ahora: go better if it's a bottom

Both are correct!
Hey, Brion!
As the title suggested, both are correct! I would ask you for mode context, but I'm sure you have none! If what you have to translate is that phrase, withouth an exclamation mark or anything else, I would go for the infinitive form Jugar ahora, as it may be a title or a button. However, if it's possible, I'd recommend to ask your client for mode context :)
Big hug!
DDD

Interesting question!
I'd say both options are correct and used. Let's see some Google results:
"Jugar ahora" --> 707.000 hits
"Juega ahora" --> 760.000 hits
"Juegue ahora" --> 21.100 hits
Apparently, the two options you suggested are used quite often. If I had to choose one of them, I'd probably use the infinitive, "Jugar ahora." However, my suggestion would simply be "Jugar," without "ahora," as it sounds more natural to me.
I hope this helps!
