PLAYSTATION has revealed the new additions to the Game Catalogue of its PS Plus subscription service.
This month, players will be able to grab 15 games, including the latest open-world Sonic game and three classics from some of PlayStation’s greatest platforming series.
Forspoken did poorly at launch, but maybe players will enjoy it more when it comes to PS Plus[/caption]Sonic Frontiers is the highlight of this month’s lineup of games, which are all available to download and play for PS Plus Extra and Premium members.
The open-world title is one of the most recent additions to the Sonic franchise, and came out at the end of 2022.
Its PlayStation version launched to generally favourable reviews, and according to review aggregator Metacritic, players liked it more than critics.
Forspoken is another big game with a shaky launch that’s coming to PS Plus Extra and Premium this month.
The action RPG didn’t get a warm welcome when it released, with reviewers criticising its combat, story, and writing, while being positive about its interesting parkour system.
As the game is coming to PS Plus, players can try it out for themselves, to see if it deserves the average to lowly review scores.
Coffee Talk and Coffee Talk Episode 2: Hibiscus & Butterfly are also being added to PlayStation’s subscription service.
The two visual novels offer coffee lovers some nice slice-of-life stories in a very cosy setting.
Customers come to your coffee shop and order drinks that you then make for them while they tell you their stories.
This month’s lineup also brings three timeless classics from PlayStation’s vast library of beloved franchises, with two Sly Cooper games and one Jak & Daxter title.
Finally, owners of PS VR2 are getting a great Star Wars VR adventure, with Star Wars: Tales from the Galaxy’s Edge.
The virtual reality game has been enhanced to take advantage of the PS5‘s fancy VR headset.
The classics and PSVR2 games are only available to subscribers of the most expensive tier, PS Plus Premium.
Here’s the full list of games coming to PlayStation Plus Extra and Premium in December 2024:
PS Plus Extra and Premium
PS Plus Premium only (classics and PSVR2 games)
The classic games are already available to play, while the rest of the titles will be added to PS Plus on December 17, 2024.
