PS Plus Extra and Premium members can now download Square Enix's Forspoken for free.
It's one of several games now available as part of the game catalogue, which also includes Sonic Frontiers.
As we rush headlong towards the holidays and the likelihood of more PS5s being switched on for the first time, Sony has provided an extra present for PS Plus Extra and Premium subscribers.
Alongside Sonic Frontiers and a handful of other great games, Sony has added Square Enix's largely forgotten action-RPG Forspoken to the game catalogue. That's great timing for me as I was waiting with bated breath for a Boxing Day sale to buy it.
Exclusive to the PlayStation 5 (ie. there's no PS4 version), the game looks stunning, with excellent character models and explosive effects.
You play as Frey, who finds herself transported from her native New York City to a fantasy world fizzing with magic and monsters. The story was written by a team that included gaming legend Amy Hennig and movie screenwriter Gary Whitta (Book of Eli, Rogue One).
It's available for eligible PS Plus members to download now, along with the other games released onto the game catalogue this month.
Sonic Frontiers is the other big-name title to be included – to coincide with the release of Sonic 3 in cinemas. It's also available for PS4 as well as PS5 (unlike Forspoken).
The PS4 version of Rabbids: Party of Legends is available too, as well as WRC Generations, F.I.S.T.: Forged In Shadow Torch, Jurassic World Evolution 2, Coffee Talk, Coffee Talk Episode 2: Hibiscus & Butterfly, A Space for the Unbound, Phogs, and Biped.
PS Plus Premium subscribers can also download (or stream via the cloud) Sly 2: Band of Thieves, Sly 3: Honor Among Thieves, and Jak and Daxter: The Precursor Legacy as part of the classics catalogue.
Premium members with PSVR2 headsets can also enjoy Star Wars: Tales from the Galaxy’s Edge.
You might also want to consider adding one of the best PS5 SSDs to your console to fit all these great games.
