PlayStation Plus Free Games November 2023

Editorial Team

Happy Belated Halloween! Yesterday was a time of ghosts and goblins, and Sony is adding aliens to that blend of spooky horror. And so, here is the next PlayStation Plus free games November 2023 line-up which will be available for download on Tuesday, November 7.

First, there is Aliens: Fireteam Elite, the third-person shooter developed by Cold Iron Studios and released two years ago, based on the Alien film series. The game takes place 23 years after the events of the original Alien trilogy, where players select from seven different character classes and board a spaceship of Marines, off to investigate a distress call.

Next, there is Dragon Ball: The Breakers, released in 2022 by Namco Bandai, based on the hit manga/anime Dragon Ball series. Unlike other Dragon Ball titles, Dragon Ball: The Breakers plays more as an action-survival, where players must outsmart the Raider and each other to become the last person standing.

Lastly, there is Mafia 2: Definitive Edition, a remaster of the original Mafia II first released in 2010 developed by 2K Czech. The Mafia 2: Definitive Edition by Hangar 13, is a visual upgrade which also includes the three DLC stories and four packs of bonus content.

All three PlayStation Plus free games November 2023 titles have Platinum trophies to unlock. Also, only Aliens: Fireteam Elite is available for both the PS4 and PS5, while Mafia II: Definitive Edition and Dragon Ball: The Breakers is only for the PS4.

Among these, Mafia II: Definitive Edition arguably has the easiest Platinum. Although players will need to complete the story on Hard difficulty, the challenge is overall not too bad – especially for players who had already played the original Mafia II on the PS3. Expect around 25 hours of gameplay for the Platinum.

Getting the Platinum on Dragon Ball: The Breakers can be quite challenging without a group of boosting partners, but much easier if you have friends to help you out. Either way, you can still expect 60-70 hours of gameplay for this one.

Obtaining the Platinum trophy for Aliens: Fireteam Elite is both extremely challenging, and will take well over 100 hours of gameplay. Not only does it require multiple playthroughs and time to max out equipment and obtain all the kill-related trophies, but clearing the game on both Extreme and Insane difficulty is what blocks many players from earning this Platinum.

Dragon Ball: Raging Blast 2

Dragon Ball: Raging Blast 2 is a 3D fighting game, based on the Dragon Ball anime and manga franchise, and a sequel to the 2009 Dragon Ball: Raging Blast. Replacing the story mode, Raging Blast 2 features a Galaxy Mode in which characters are represented by planets, each including their own mission paths. Like its prequel, the game also includes an online multiplayer mode.

Despite high sales in Japan, Dragon Ball: Raging Blast 2 received mixed reviews with an average score of 60%. Praised for its graphics on the characters and in some ways an overall improvement from the prequel, the game was also criticized for not having a story mode, and complex game mechanics.

The trophies are far less frustrating than those on the prequel. However, the Platinum is still quite time consuming, as you need to collect all costumes and items, as well as the 100 titles in multiplayer. This time, there are 5 online trophies, which are possible to acquire on your own if you have the skills. Having a boosting partner, however, will make these trophies quicker and easier to collect.

If you possess some serious skills, it's possible to obtain the Platinum in around 40 hours. Otherwise, expect far more time.

Regardless if this is your first time playing a Raging Blast title or not, there are two trophies which you can unlock while running through the tutorial, so you may as well start there to collect Fundamentals Are Vital, and Fruits Of Training.

Next, head into Galaxy Mode and start working on unlocking a large chunk of trophies by playing through with each character. To avoid future hassle, we recommend writing down which missions you received a golden Cleared, so that you know which ones will need repeating.

After that, there's a Battle Zone, which includes six trophies to unlock. Keep in mind that for the Stamp Rally trophy, equipping items that help you can also harm you statistically.

Hopefully by now, you skills have been improving. So when you head into World Tournament, set the difficulty to Hard to unlock the W. Tournament True Champ, in addition to the other three trophies.

Last, the remaining offline trophies can either be earned in Battle Mode, or through mopping up depending on what you're still missing at this point. Check out the Dragon Ball Raging Blast 2 trophy guide links under our Links tab for details on anything you still need to unlock.

With the offline trophies completed and your skills at an all-time high, you can move onto multiplayer to unlock the last few trophies. As we mentioned earlier, these are far less frustrating than those on the prequel, but will still require a fair amount of time - especially if you care completing these legitimately. Otherwise, make some friends online and get boosting, or check out the boosting forums under our Links tab.

Dragon Ball Raging Blast Trophy Guide

Editorial Team

Dragon Ball Raging Blast Trophy Guide. Difficulty: ****  A 3D fighting game based on the manga and anime series Dragon Ball. A very challenging and time consuming Platinum, with online trophies that are difficult without boosting.

Game Name Difficulty Trophies Developer Country Bronze Silver Gold Online DLC

Dragon Ball: Raging Blast

Dragon Ball: Raging Blast is a 3D fighting game, based on the manga and anime franchise of Dragon Ball. The game uses cel-shaded graphics, and in story mode, allows the player to re-enact specific events of the Dragon Ball story, from the Saiyan Saga to the Kid Buu Saga, while the result of the battle can alter the story. Also included are "what-if" scenarios that never occurred in the story. The game includes a Dojo for practice, and an online mode which allows up to 16 players.

Despite possessing reasonable sales, the game received mixed to negative reviews, with an average score of 63%, praised for its multiplayer but criticized mainly for its game mechanics.

Some very challenging, and time consuming trophies which require serious skills. Also, there are 6 online trophies that, if done legitimately, will take forever. Having a boosting partner could bring this rating down to a 3-star, but even still some of the offline trophies, such as All Ruined, will give you a run for your money.

For someone with great skills and a boosting partner, this could take about 40-50 hours to complete. Anyone new to the Dragon Ball fighting series, or are planning on getting the online trophies without a partner, will take far longer.

First, there are four trophies which you can earn by completing the training in the Dojo, so that's a good place to start. In addition to the trophies, you'll be learning all the moves and preparing yourself for what lies ahead.

Once that's finished, you can start on the main story in Dragon Ball Collection. Here's the meat of the offline trophies, in which you'll be collecting stars and unlocking items and characters. Check out the Dragon Ball Raging Blast trophy guide links under our Links tab for specific details to whichever trophies you're aiming for.

You'll then need to move onto the World Tournament, where you'll continue to unlock items, as well as prize items which relate to the difficulty level you're playing. Again, check the trophy guides for specific details.

Before starting the Super Battle Trial, we recommend moving onto the Online trophies. As we mentioned earlier, doing this legitimately will be difficult, particularly when trying to collect all 30 titles for the 30 Titles Achieved trophy. So you may wish to start making friends online, or use the boosting forum in our Links page to find yourself a partner.

Once that's done, you can collect the few remaining trophies by moving onto the Super Battle Trials. These are very challenging, which is why we recommend saving them till last, when your character is completely customized.

Good luck!

Dragon Ball Z Ultimate Tenkaichi Trophy Guide

Editorial Team

Dragon Ball Z Ultimate Tenkaichi Trophy Guide. Difficulty: **  A 3D fighting game based on the Dragon Ball anime and manga franchise. The Platinum is arguably easier than other games in the Dragon Ball series, being more time consuming than difficult.

Game Name Difficulty Trophies Developer Country Bronze Silver Gold Online DLC

Dragon Ball Z: Ultimate Tenkaichi

Dragon Ball Z: Ultimate Tenkaichi is a 3D fighting game, based on the Dragon Ball anime and manga franchise. In Story mode, players take control of various characters from the series and battle one enemy after another in order to save the Earth from an evil threat. A Hero mode allows players to battle with selected visuals unlocked. The game also includes an online mode.

Dragon Ball Z: Ultimate Tenkaichi received generally mixed reviews, with an average score of 59%, praised for its graphics but criticized for its repetitive nature and weak storytelling.

Arguably the easier of the Dragon Ball titles, this game is more time-consuming than difficult. The offline trophies, particularly for completing the Story mode, are certainly obtainable but grinding. There are 5 online trophies to worry about, yet regardless if you have a boosting partner or not, the servers are rather unstable which can add frustration and even more time to an already grinding experience.

Overall, expect well over 30 hours on this one.

A roadmap isn't really essential for this game. But if you're one of those players who absolutely needs direction, then you'll want to start making your way through both Story mode and Hero mode. You can do one, then the other, or alternate between the two if you start getting bored with the repetitiveness. The choice is yours.

Once that's completed, it's simply a matter of mopping-up the remaining offline trophies you're missing. This is where some grinding is required. Check out the Dragon Ball Z Ultimate Tenkaichi trophy guide links under our Links tab for specific details to what you need.

Last, are the 5 remaining online trophies. Essentially, you will need to play 30 online battles, and collect all the titles to acquire all five online trophies. Having a boosting partner will speed things up in the title hunting, but it's quire possible to do this on your own. The problem isn't the difficulty in acquiring these trophies, but struggling with the unstable servers. We've found, on average, to be disconnected once every three battles or so.

Good luck!
