Editorial Team

Sony is feeling generous these days, and has decided to throw in a little bonus to the next set of freebies. And so, here is the next line-up of PlayStation Plus free games March 2022 available for download on Tuesday, March 1.

First, on the PS4, there’s ARK: Survival Evolved, the action adventure with crafting elements, developed by Studio Wildcard. Players can select either single-player or online mode, beam down to a planet inhabited by dinosaurs, and try to survive by building bases, crafting weapons, taming dinosaurs to ride, and fighting an assortment of creatures.

Next for the PS4 is Team Sonic Racing, the next title in the Kart racing series which spun-off from the Sonic the Hedgehog games. Select from a roaster of 15 characters and race your way to the finish line while drifting, performing tricks, and collecting power-ups. Unlike other titles in the series, Team Sonic Racing focuses on cooperative gameplay as you work with your teammates to win.

And for the PS5, there’s Ghostrunner, an action platformer in a cyberpunk setting. Similar to the popular 2008 title Mirror’s Edge, players must run, jump, and grapple their way through dangerous environments while battling enemies with one-hit kills.

All three of these titles have Platinum trophies to unlock.

If played legitimately, unlocking all the trophies on ARK: Survival Evolved is the most challenging and time consuming. However, the game allows the player to input cheat codes during the offline campaign. If using these cheat codes, the Platinum for ARK: Survival Evolved is by far the easiest and less time consuming among the PlayStation Plus free games March 2022 line-up.

While Ghostrunner and be quite tricky and has a steep learning curve, the Platinum can be unlocked in less than 10 hours with enough patience and lots of trial and error.

The difficulty in obtaining the Platinum for Team Sonic Racing entirely depends on your experience with kart-racing titles. On average, expect around 25 hours of gameplay.

Lastly, as an added bonus, Sony is also giving away Ghost of Tsushima: Legends for both the PS4 and PS5. This is a standalone version of the multiplayer add-on to Ghost of Tsushima, where players select from four classes and participate in a variety of game modes including 2v2 battles, survival, and story missions.

Still too cold out there for you? Why not stay inside and play some games? Sony has an answer to that, and they have just announced their line-up of PlayStation Plus free games February 2022 available for download on Tuesday, February 1.

First, for the PS4, there’s Tiny Tina’s Assault on Dragon Keep: A Wonderlands One-Shot Adventure, an action RPG shooter. Rescue the Queen and save the kingdom by battling dragons, skeletons, and golems in this high fantasy world.

Next, for the PS4, there’s EA Sports UFC 4, the mixed martial arts fighting game first released two years ago. Learn the four MMA disciplines of boxing, kickboxing, wrestling, and jiujitsu, create your own custom player, and fight your way to becoming the GOAT.

Last, for both the PS4 and PS5, there’s Planet Coaster: Console Edition, a simulation game where players create and manage their own theme park attractions. Complete objectives in Career mode, or create whatever you like in Sandbox mode.

All three PlayStation Plus free games February 2022 have platinum trophies to unlock.

The platinum for Tiny Tina’s Assault on Dragon Keep: A Wonderlands One-Shot Adventure is perhaps the easiest to obtain, as the game can be played on easy mode. However, some trophies are luck based, which means you can expect anywhere between 30-40 hours to complete.

Planet Coaster: Console Edition’s platinum is fairly average in terms of difficulty, and even easier for those with experience playing theme park simulation games. Expect around 35-40 hours of gameplay for this one.

The platinum for EA Sports UFC 4 is also of average difficulty, though you will need some half-decent skills in order to unlock some of the online trophies.

Happy holidays! The new year is just days away, and with it comes some new freebies from Sony. So without further ado, there is the next line-up of PlayStation Plus free games January 2022 available for download on Tuesday, January 4.

For the PS4, there’s Persona 5 Strikers, an action RPG featuring a crossover between Atlus’ Persona 5 RPG elements and the hack and slash elements of Koei Tecmo’s Dynasty Warriors franchise. Taking place several months following the events of Persona 5, the protagonist Joker is transported to an alternate version of Tokyo filled with dangerous shadows.

Next, there’s Dirt 5 available for both the PS4 and PS5. This off-road racing game includes a weather system based on the seasons as players compete in various locales across the globe, as well as introduces four-players splitscreen and a narrative-focused career mode.

Lastly, for both the PS4 and PS5, there’s Deep Rock Galactic, a co-op first-person shooter. Players explore procedurally generated caves while working together in teams of up to four in PvE combat.

All three PlayStation Plus free games January 2022 titles have Platinum trophies to unlock.

Among them, Dirt 5 is perhaps the easiest to unlock. The game includes two online trophies which are quick to get and do not require boosting. Due to some grinding in order to drive a total of 1,000 miles, the Platinum will require around 25 hours.

The platinum for Persona 5 Strikers is also not particularly difficult, though will require a lot of grinding and around 60 hours of gameplay.

Since Deep Rock Galactic is new to the PlayStation, it is still yet unknown how easy or difficult the Platinum will be. However, just from looking at the trophy list, it appears to include a few trophies that may be difficult to unlock without boosting.

The silly season is coming up, and if you’re tired from all that shopping, why not relax at home with a controller in your hand? And so, here is the next line-up of PlayStation Plus free games December 2021 which are available for download on Tuesday, December 7.

First, there’s Mortal Shell for both the PS4 and PS5. This action RPG, first released eight months ago, plays similar to games in the Dark Souls franchise where players select one of the “shell” characters with different playstyles and engage in melee combat.

Next, for both the PS4 and PS5, there’s Godfall: Challenger Edition, another action RPG first released on the PS5 a year ago. Play as a member of the Knight’s Order and stop the coming apocalypse in this high-fantasy world.

Finally, on the PS4, there’s LEGO DC Super-Villains which was first released three years ago. Like many games in the LEGO-themed franchise, the game is an action-adventure platformer where players either take control of a villain from the DC Universe, or create a custom character, and battle against a rival group of supervillains.

All three of the PlayStation Plus free games December 2021 line-up have Platinum trophies to unlock.

As you would expect from a LEGO title, the Platinum for LEGO DC Super-Villains is by far the easiest, despite a few tricky races to accomplish, though will take around 30 hours of gameplay.

The Platinum for Mortal Shell is of average difficulty, though it depends on your experience in this genre, and needs around 25-30 hours of gameplay to unlock.

The difficulty in obtaining the Platinum for Godfall: Challenger Edition depends on how many hours you wish to spend farming for gear. Overall, getting all the trophies can be quite challenging, and will take around 70-80 hours.

Happy Halloween! Although no horror games being released as PS+ freebies this year. Instead, here is the next line-up of PlayStation Plus free games November 2021 available for download on Tuesday, November 2.

First for both the PS4 and PS5, there’s Knockout City, a sports-like multiplayer first released only five months ago. Following rules similar to dodgeball, players compete in teams to knock out their enemies with a ball. The game includes various modes and maps, as well as different balls with different attributes which can alter the strategy of the game.

Next, also on both the PS4 and PS5, there’s First Class Trouble, an online party game where players must both work together – and against each other – in order to survive a disaster. Taking place on an intergalactic luxurious cruiser, players must deceive others while deducing their way to the goal.

Lastly, for the PS4, there’s Kingdoms of Amalur: Re-Reckoning, a revamp of the 2012 PS3 title. Based on lore created by R.A. Salvatore and artwork by Todd McFarlane, the game is an action RPG in which the player controls the “Fateless One,” who has returned from the dead and thereby no longer possesses a fate, allowing him to change the course of destiny.

All three titles in the line-up of PlayStation Plus free games November 2021 have Platinum trophies to unlock.

If boosting, than First Class Trouble has arguably the easiest Platinum to unlock, requiring only around 20 hours. However, without boosting, this one can be extremely difficult.

Kingdoms of Amalur: Re-Reckoning is not particularly difficult, especially for those who have already experienced the PS3 version. However, be prepared to set aside 50-60 hours worth of gameplay.

The Platinum for Knockout City is still too new to get an accurate report, though some players have stated the Platinum is of average difficulty and will require roughly 60-70 hours of gameplay.
