At the most recent PlayStation event we saw them announce the PlayStation Plus Collection which features some of the best games from the PS4 era being available to play on the PS5 at no extra cost for the PlayStation Plus users. Now I have been a PlayStation Plus user for a long time now and I love the way they give you free games each month to make sure that you are getting value back from the subscription and we have definitely been given some great free games throughout the PS4 era.
For me this collection is a way of getting those players a bit of an extra incentive for subscribing through the PS5 lifecycle too. The Xbox has Gamepass, which I definitely need to check out in the near future, with a whole host of games that you get in your membership so it feels to me as though PlayStation are trying to match this with the collection as well as PlayStation now subscription which again I still need to try. This collection just adds to the value of the subscription but also gives players the opportunity to try games from the last generation that they may have missed out on.
Not everyone will have picked up these titles on the PS4 but they will no doubt be tempted into playing them due to them not technically costing them anything extra (other than the subscription they already have), I know a few of the titles on the list have definitely got me interested.
So here is what we know the PlayStation Plus Collection is going to offer us so far...
Batman Arkham Knight
Battlefield 1
Bloodborne
Days Gone
Detroit : Become Human
Fallout 4
Final Fantasy XV
God of War
inFAMOUS : Second Son
The last guardian
The last of us remastered
Monster Hunter : World
Mortal Combat X
Persona 5
Ratchet & Clank
Resident Evil 7 : Biohazard
Uncharted 4 : A thief's end
Until Dawn
I know that from this list I will be giving about 8 of the games a go as they are games I have wanted to try but haven't been 100% on purchasing. At least if I am already purchasing the subscription if I don't like the game I am not technically wasting money on something I don't like, plus it means I am trying out new games for a change.
This collection is definitely going to add that extra value for subscribers and who knows more could be added in the future to make it even better. It is also great for those who are wanting the PS5 at launch but don't want just the 1 or 2 games in their collection to begin with. This way you could just buy a PS5, renew your PS Plus subscription and gain access to these great games without having to basically get anything new.
The top 3 games I will definitely be trying through this collection are God of War, Ratchet & Clank and Mortal Combat X as God of War is a game I have wanted for a while, Ratchet & Clank is one I have never tried just like Mortal Combat X. What will you be getting from the PS Plus Collection?
