We are reaching the end of the year, which may be farewell for some, and good riddance for others. Regardless of how you feel, a new year means new games to play. And so without further ado, here is the next PlayStation Plus free games January 2024 which will be available for download on Tuesday, January 2.
First, there is A Plague Tale: Requiem, the action stealth game developed by Asobo Studios. In this sequel to the 2019 A Plague Tale: Innocence, players take control of the character Amicia, who visits a tropical island with her brother in order to find a cure for a strange illness, but must fight or hide from the island’s population which has turned against them. A Plague Tale: Requiem plays in a similar style to its predecessor, though its combat system has been expanded.
Also, there is Evil West, the third-person shooter by Flying Wild Hog. Jesse Rentier is a vampire hunter, and uses a range of weapons to destroy the demons that lurk in the Wild West.
Lastly, there is Nobody Saves the World, an action-RPG and dungeon crawler by DrinkBox Studios. From a top-down perspective, players control Nobody, a character equipped with a magic wand which allows him to change into 18 different forms, such as a robot, a dragon, and a magician.
All three PlayStation Plus free games January 2024 titles have Platinum trophies to unlock. Also, both Evil West and Nobody Saves the World is available on both the PS4 and PS5, while A Plague Tale: Requiem is for the PlayStation 5 only.
Among these titles, A Plague Tale: Requiem is perhaps the quickest and easiest Platinum to obtain. The game itself is not particularly hard, and player can expect around 25-30 hours to collect all the trophies.
Nobody Saves the World is of average difficulty, with a few challenging dungeons here and there. The game will require at least two playthroughs, and 25-30 hours to obtain the Platinum.
Lastly, Evil West can be quite challenging, particularly since it requires a playthrough on Evil Difficulty. The Platinum may take around 35-40 hours of gameplay, though this is highly skill-dependent.
