During yesterday’s PlayStation 5 event, Sony surprised their fans with something called the PlayStation Plus Collection. It is a service by Sony where PlayStation 5 owners will be able to play a small, yet impressive, list of games at launch for free, assuming that they have an active PlayStation Plus subscription. So yeah, not completely free though. While the PlayStation Plus Collection might not be the best rival to Xbox Game Pass, it still offers some amazing critically acclaimed games.
Some of these games are first-party releases from Sony that are only available on PlayStation 4, and some are your normal AAA titles that can be played on other consoles. The collection offers some great games like God of War, The Last of Us Remastered, Uncharted 4: A Thief's End, and more. However, it doesn’t have all the latest exclusives by Sony. Some amazing games like Horizon Zero Dawn, The Last of Us Part 2, and Ghost of Tsushima are missing. The lack of the last two games makes sense as they are still relatively new and are probably making money. However, Microsoft has decided to add their latest games to their Xbox Game Pass. Microsoft Flight Simulator, which was released a month ago, was available on the Pass from day one. Their upcoming games like Halo Infinite and Senua's Saga: Hellblade II will also be available on the Pass for free.
Here is the list of games that are part of the PlayStation Plus Collection:
- Batman: Arkham Knight
- Battlefield 1
- Bloodborne
- Days Gone
- Detroit: Become Human
- Fallout 4
- Final Fantasy XV
- God of War
- Infamous Second Son
- Monster Hunter World
- Mortal Kombat X
- Persona 5
- Ratchet and Clank
- Resident Evil 7: Biohazard
- The Last Guardian
- The Last of Us Remastered
- Uncharted 4: A Thief's End
- Until Dawn
It is still not yet confirmed whether these games will run better on the new console or not. Sony has yet to clarify whether we will see a graphical improvement, or these are just normal ports.
