The newest Media Create calculations are in. Yakuza Kiwami 2, Earth Defence Force, and Kamen Rider: Climax Fights debut.
Get an early preview of the games included in the sale running January 18 to February 1.
From PS Blog: "Today we’re happy to reveal August’s Game Catalog lineup for PlayStation Plus, which will be available to play for Extra and Premium members on August 16. It’s headlined by three Yakuza games (which will soon be followed by other entries in the series later this year). But rubbing shoulders with the crime series will be multiplayer horror Dead by Daylight, open world shooter Tom Clancy’s Ghost Recon Wildlands and whimsical adventure Bugsnax. "
Yakuza 0, 1 and 2 alone make this a fucking amazing month. Those three are easily over 20 or 30 hours of gameplay each.
Trials of Mana is a nice addition
They should also start adding the Kingdom Hearts and Dragon Quest series to the service at some point
As someone that has been playing the Yakuza series since PS2 and has played and beat every game except Like a dragon (working on that now) and the one in feudal Japan, this is an amazing month. I won’t benefit from it personally as I own all of them, but man I hope people give these awesome games a try. Yakuza zero alone is amazing. Running the cabaret is more fun than anyone would have guessed. Racing the cars had me glued. I’ve played DBD for a few years now and it’s a great game full of toxic try hard survivors. Feels amazing to get those clutch killer wins on them. Both sides are super fun though. Already have Bugsnax. Ghost recon should be fun. I’ll be giving that a try.
I personally won’t benefit much from this month, but mannnn is it a hell of a month from those that will.
Includes Yakuza: Like A Dragon and the entire Kazuma Kiryu saga.
I already own all these digital+physical.So good to see more people will get to enjoy them.
Wonder why Fist of North Star isnt being added
It's early days but this new service is looking better and better. The full Yakuza series! And with the monthly games this month too. Fantastic month
That was the only Yakuza game I was missing. Might be the best month of all time for me.
Switch is on fire and it's still selling out. Sales are strongest in the two weeks before Christmas so long as Nintendo gets the stock out there it should have no problem reaching 200,000 the next 2-3 weeks. If they ship out enough stock they may even manage 300,000. Either way it will be at around 3.15-3.35 million for the end of the year . . . right around the lifetime sales of the Wii U in less than ten months on the market. At the current sales rates the Switch will surpass the PS4 there sometime late next year or early 2019 (probably depends on when Pokemon launches). With no handheld anywhere in the foreseeable future Nintendo will have Japan on lock unless the Japanese' preference for on-the-go gaming changes.
Good to see Yakuza doing well!
Wow, PS4 Pro outsold the standard ps4
Also, who was it that was saying Xenoblade would be evergreen? It dropped like a rock.
Nintendo is dominating Japan. Most of the top 20 is Switch and 3DS games some of which have remained in the top ten for months now. To see Splatoon still selling like that after launching last July is crazy. Congrats Nintendo on another steller week.
Wow, people in Japan like Yakuza! And i wasn't expecting a second place for Earth Defense Force, not bad. And as usual great sales for Switch and Nintendo in general, congratulations!
