The PlayStation Plus free games for January aren’t expected to be announced until next week, but Dealabs has already leaked the list. The popular co-op mine ’em up Deep Rock Galactic, arcade racer Dirt 5, and the Atlus-Tecmo-Koei collaboration Persona 5 Strikers are all expected to be included in the lineup.
Surprisingly, it appears that we’ll be getting two PS5 games (as opposed to two PS4 games and only one PS5 option in previous months). Here’s a little more information on the latest PS Plus free games…
Deep Rock Galactic (PS4 and PS5)
Deep Rock Galactic is a co-op Sci-Fi FPS featuring tough guy space dwarves, 100% destructible environments, procedurally-generated caves, and endless hordes of alien monsters.
Dirt 5 (PS4 and PS5)
Dirt 5 is the most ambitious title to date in Codemasters’ legendary off-road franchise to date. With a host of new features and jaw-dropping action, DIRT 5 gives you epic races, rock-solid customization, and unmistakable style.
Persona 5 Strikers (PS4)
Join the Phantom Thieves and fight back against the corruption that is spreading across Japanese cities. A summer vacation with friends comes to an end when a distorted reality emerges: unveil the truth and make the hearts of those who have been trapped in the centre of the singularity shine!
Of course, things can always change, but Dealabs has been dead on with their leaks for months, so there’s no reason to believe they won’t be right again. In this case, salt is probably unnecessary. If this is the complete PS Plus lineup, January is shaping up to be a great month. Although there are no big blockbusters, Deep Rock Galactic and Dirt 5 are both enjoyable, and Persona 5 Strikers may be worthwhile for Atlus fans. These games will most likely be confirmed (or not) next Wednesday.
