In honor of Valentine’s Day, PlayStation owners can play online multiplayer games completely free for a couple of days.
Typically a PlayStation Plus subscription is necessary to play multiplayer games online on PS4 or PS5, but that requirement is getting nixed during this promotion. Clearly, anything is possible when love is in the air!
PSN will remove the PS Plus requirement for multiplayer beginning from Feb. 12 at 12:01 A.M. until Feb. 14, giving ample time to tell that special someone how you feel over a Call of Duty: Vanguard match or Destiny 2 strike. Nothing screams “hopeless romantic” like sprinting from bloodthirsty killers in Dead By Daylight, after all.
Play together this Valentine’s Day weekend 💙
Online multiplayer modes for PS4 and PS5 games are available without a PlayStation Plus subscription during Online Multiplayer Weekend from Feb 12 @12:01AM – Feb 14 11:59PM local time: https://t.co/YOxnYoY4Ny pic.twitter.com/f5hinA6BSn

Plenty of free-to-play titles don’t require a PS Plus subscription, though. Genshin Impact, Apex Legends, and Final Fantasy 14, for instance. However, stuff like Overwatch or the upcoming Evil Dead game do. It’s a case-by-case basis, so getting PS Plus is probably worth it in the end.
This promotion will give you a chance to give multiplayer a brief test drive at the very least. Heck, Dying Light 2 Stay Human would be a solid choice for co-oping through the zombie apocalypse with your boo.
