Sony has disclosed the free PS Plus games subscribers will be given a chance to tackle in January. It looks like, players can expect three games every month going forward, two for PlayStation 4 (via backward compatibility the games can be played on PS5), and one for PlayStation 5. In the upcoming month, we get the PlayStation 5 version of the unique fantasy-historical RPG Greedfall, the dark Lara Croft adventure Shadow of the Tomb Raider, and the terrifying shark sim Maneater.
Here is the full rundown of Sony’s free PS Plus games in January:
Maneater (PS5)
Experience the ultimate power fantasy as the apex predator of the seas – a terrifying shark! Maneater is a single-player, open-world action RPG (ShaRkPG) where you are the shark. Starting as a small shark pup you are tasked with surviving the harsh world while eating your way up the ecosystem. Find the right resources and you can grow and evolve far beyond what nature intended, allowing the player to tailor the shark to their play style. Eat. Explore. Evolve.
Shadow of the Tomb Raider (PS4)
Fight, explore, craft and survive amid the dense and perilous jungles of South America in Lara Croft’s biggest adventure to date as you race to save the world from a Maya apocalypse. Gather resources and master the unforgiving terrain. Outgunned and outnumbered, you need to use your surroundings to your advantage; strike from the shadows and use mud to camouflage your presence. Use advanced traversal techniques to reach long-forgotten tombs and negotiate deadly puzzles.
Greedfall (PS4 game)
In this action RPG, explore uncharted new lands as you set foot on a remote island seeping with magic, and filled with riches, lost secrets, and fantastic creatures. You’ll have complete freedom to shape your abilities, spells and skills and decide whether to complete objectives with combat, diplomacy, deception, or stealth. Forge this new world’s destiny, as you befriend or betray companions and entire factions.
In PS4, the Maneater has faced different types of technical issues but the game will perform better in PS5. This offer of three games will not be available from 1st February 2021.
