Sony revealed December’s lineup of free games for PS Plus subscribers Wednesday.
As expected, the leaks were right. This month’s games are exactly what leakers said they would be.
What’s more, these are actually all pretty good games, ending Sony’s stagnant PlayStation Plus run that’s been going on for months. One of December’s games is truly great and the other two are exactly the types of games you’d hope for from the subscription service—titles you may not have purchased at launch, but that you’d happily try out for free!
The games PS Plus subscribers can download for free starting next Tuesday, December 7th are:
- Mortal Shell on PS4 (backward compatible on PS5)
- Godfall on PS4 and PS5
- DC LEGO Supervillains on PS4 (backward compatible on PS5)
Godfall is one I’ve only dabbled in, and while I know it’s gotten mixed reviews from critics and gamers alike, it seems like a pretty fun brawler / looter with terrific graphics and fun combat.
If you enjoy TT Games’ LEGO titles and enjoy playing as a bad guy, DC LEGO Supervillains checks all the right boxes. And you can play it in split-screen with friends which is always fun.
MORE FOR YOU
The game I think everyone should be genuinely excited about, however, is Mortal Shell. This is one of the absolute best ‘Souls-like’ games, truly capturing not just the challenge and refined combat that put Dark Souls on the map, but also the mood and atmosphere. This one just came to Xbox Game Pass as well, so it’s just good news all around for gamers.
What do you think of this month’s PS Plus lineup? Has Sony finally broken its losing streak? Any of these ones you’ve been excited to play, or that you’ve played already?
Let me know on Twitter or Facebook and thanks for reading!
P.S. You can still download November’s free PS Plus games. The fact is, while it wasn’t a great month it wasn’t the worst PlayStation Plus lineup by any means, with some genuinely decent titles on offer.
