However, with the announcement so close and of course the month wrapping up, many are no doubt looking forward to thePS Plus free games for December 2023, as well as the Extra and Premium games that follow them. It’s uncertain what Sony will reveal, as there are so many good options, but the following would all perform great on the service either way.
PS Plus Free Game for December 2023: The Last of Us Part 1
Recently, Sony and Naughty Dog announced thatThe Last of Us Part 2 Remasteredwould be released in January 2024. In addition to a few general upgrades, it features some playable “Lost Levels” of the game, as well as a new roguelike mode. To get even more folks interested in that release, it would make sense to push more folks diving into the first one if they haven’t or just haven’t played the latest available version. It should be noted that 2014’s Last of Us Remastered is available on one of PS Plus' tiers, and there is a limited-time trial for The Last of Us Part 1 already on PS Plus Premium. However, it would not be the first time a trial game jumped to a full-featured game, and doing so would go a long way in this particular instance.
PS Plus Free Game for December 2023: Mega Man 30th Anniversary Bundle
Sometimes, onePS Plusfree game will be a collection or bundle in place of one game. What this means is that PS Plus gives away one big game that contains a few games within it, technically giving fans access to 2-3+ games as “one” release. There’s hardly a better time to pull such a move than around the holidays, and theMega Man 30th Anniversary Bundlewould be great for nostalgic gamers. This would honestly be one of the most content-heavy single releases on PS Plus in the service’s history, as the 30th Anniversary Bundle compilesMega Man 11and a handful of legacy collection games, giving fans a total of 19 games (8Mega Man Xgames and 11 mainline games). Notably, even if Sony worked with Capcom to choose just one of the Legacy Collections within this Bundle, it would still make a great PS Plus title.
PS Plus Free Game for December 2023: El Paso, Elsewhere
El Paso, Elsewhereofficially launched in September 2023, and while most titles do not hit services like PS Plus or Xbox Game Pass within so few months after launch (if not day-one games), it’s worth noting how many high-profile releases there were in September. GivingEl, Paso Elsewheremore time to shine as part of the PS Plus line-up in December just makes sense. This Neo-Noir third-person shooter pits players against werewolves and vampires in a reality-shifting motel, alongside much, much more.
PS Plus Extra and Premium Games for December 2023 Wish List
It’s nearly impossible to narrow down any possibilities coming to PS Plus Extra and Premium at any given time, given the sheer volume of every monthly giveaway. However, a recentPS Plus Premium leak suggested that PSP titlesThrillvilleandThrillville: Off The Rails, as well as PS1 titleBuzz Lightyear of Star Command, could be coming to the service. Those seem much more like a lot. Meanwhile,Batman: Arkham OriginsandBatman: Arkham Knightare available on PS Plus Extra, so it only makes sense to complete the collection with the other two titles.
