We’re nearing the end of May already and summer is fast-approaching. This means that another batch of PlayStation Plus games are on the horizon, though we still have a bit of a wait to find out what they’re going to be.
This month’s lineup includes FC24, Ghostrunner II, Tunic and Destiny 2: Lightfall, so be sure to download those before June 4th.
Read on for more information on next month’s PS Plus lineup.
What Is PlayStation Plus And How Much Does It Cost?
PS Plus is Sony’s monthly membership program that grants access to online gaming. You don’t need it for streaming movies or TV shows on Netflix and other services, or for free-to-play games like Warzone or Fortnite. Any paid online games, however, require a subscription.
There are three PS Plus tiers—Essential, Extra and Premium—though for the purposes of this post we’re only discussing the Essential tier’s free monthly games. Following a big price-hike, these tiers cost: PS Plus Essential — $79.99/year; PS Plus Extra — $134.99/year; PS Plus Premium — $159.99/year.
When Will Sony Reveal Next Month’s PS Plus Games?
Sony typically reveals the following month’s games on the last Wednesday of the month, though this isn’t always the case. The actual rule of thumb is that the new lineup always releases on the first Tuesday of the month and the games are revealed the previous Wednesday.
This means we’ll get the official reveal this Wednesday, May 29th, and the new lineup will be available on Tuesday, June 4th. Subscribers will have until then to download this month’s free games.
PS Plus May Leaks, Rumors And Predictions
So far, there have been no leaks or rumors or confirmations of any of June’s PS Plus games. There are two games releasing on PlayStation on the 4th, but both can be pre-ordered so neither seems likely. The first is Killer Klowns From Outer Space: The Game. Bungie’s Destiny 2 expansion, The Final Shape also comes out next Tuesday. Of course, since we just got Lightfall in May I very highly doubt we’d get a brand new expansion for free in June.
I’ll update this post if/when any leaks or rumors do drop, but for now we’ll have to stick with my prediction / wishful thinking list (some of these are not good games, but since Sony often gives out poorly-received titles this makes them likely contenders).
