Nice... I just bought Evil West a couple months ago but never opened it. Now I won't have to. And i hear good things about Plague Tale.

[crazyCoconuts]

Plagues Tail Req is good. One of my favorite Dual Sense trigger effects on the slingshot.

[--Onilink--]

Nobody Saves the World is amazing too, SkillUp did a great review of it

[Samonuske]

On the same boat with evil west still have it unopened.

[FinalFantasyFanatic]

I already bought Evil West on PC just recently, I've owned Nobody Saves the World for a long time, I really loved the first Plague Tale game, I was waiting for it to hit $30 on Steam before I bought it.

Considering the games, this is one of the best months we've had in a while.

[thorstein]

I have every one of these on my wishlist. This is great!

I loved the first Plague Tale.

[Eonjay]

Really good month for the Essential catalog.

[isarai]

Evil west is dope

[Storm23]

I have wanted to try it! So glad it is included this month. Good job Sony!

[Relientk77]

A Plague Tale: Requiem and Evil West are both fantastic games. What a great month

[Demetrius]

Is plague tale worth a buy it looks interesting to me

[SyntheticForm]

Evil West, very nice! I've come very close to purchasing; glad I didn't.

[etown61281]

Same, i really enjoyed the demo

[Storm23]

Same!

[jznrpg]

Nice month for me ! I own 2 of the games but still haven’t opened them yet and I’ll keep it that way now.

[shinoff2183]

Love when this happens. I've even bought digital of a game I own physically if it's cheap enough and I really like it. The way I've seen physical game prices of older stuff and newer stuff soar is insane

[BrainSyphoned]

Nobody Saves The World is fantastic for couch co-op with the kids.

[spicelicka]

This game was released on Gamepass day 1. PS subscriptions are still way behind in that department. Still a great game for PS owners.

[RupeeHoarder]

PS fans have had many other things to play in their back catalogs that aren't multiplat. No need to be at the mercy of what a corporation chooses to drop on their subscription service to find entertainment.

[spicelicka]

"No need to be at the mercy of what a corporation chooses to drop on their subscription service to find entertainment."

LOL what does that even mean. You realize all gamepass games are available to buy outside of the subscription service right?

I don't know why people get so butthurt just because of a negative truth about their favorite piece of purchased plastic. PS has great exclusives, which xbox has been sucking at. At the same time Gamepass is the greatest value in gaming. Sorry fanboys.

[FinalFantasyFanatic]

I'd rather have PS Plus, it's been pretty damn good to me over the years.

[Gamehard]

PS plus essentials is not the equivalent to game pass subscription, so why the comparison?

[spicelicka]

Gamepass core costs the same and they're both subscriptions. In fact, GP core is actually cheaper if you look at the per year price.

[MrNinosan]

@spicelicka
But Gamepass Core doesn't have Day 1 releases, so another fail from you.

[crazyCoconuts]

#1 GamePass core isn't as good as PS essentials. Not only are the games worse, you also don't get to keep them
#2 What is the per year price for GamePass core? They don't have one is the answer. I don't want to hear about your CD Keys deals.
PS essentials DOES have an annual price and it's cheaper than GamePass core.

[andy85]

@spicelicka GP core is $108 a year and PS essential is $79. And that's without the frequent sales which Xbox doesn't offer. And core doesn't have day one games anyway. So what are you talking about

[MrNinosan]

Rocket League, Stray, Tchia, Humanity, Sea of Stars, Resogun, Teardown, Rogue Legacy 2, Fall Guys, Moving Out 2, Destruction All-Stars, DKO, Meet your Maker, Oddworld: Soulstorm, Worms Rumble, Knack, Deliver us the Moon, Operation Tango, Hell let Loose and many more.

We had plenty of Day 1 games on PS+, many which was included on the lowest tier where we can keep them forever. Games with Gold never had Day 1 releases and GamePass is a rental service, where the games might dissapear.

[Elda]

Evil West was not on GP.

[Crows90]

Dude. This is the essential lineup...the gwg equivalent...why you talking about Gamepass/Ps Extra

[andy85]

And how much is GP compared? If it was a few dollars a month like this is you wouldn't be getting day one games on it.

[Petebloodyonion]

lots of good games but always surprised by the " Gamepass is full of indycrap and shovelware to Wow great games coming to PS+ this month" for the same titles.

[Notsofast]

being a PlayStation fan I can say I like Game Pass and was expecting them to put out a lot of heavy hitters this month of December like they normally do every year but it didn't happen

[Nacho_Z]

Probably because Xbox is all about Gamepass whereas PS+ is far more incidental in the grand Sony picture.

[Petebloodyonion]

So let me get this straight
Because MS is about Gamepass games like Plague Tales Requien or Evil West are indy shovelware
but since Playstation isn't about PS+ the same game suddenly becomes great?
Well that's a new :)

[shinoff2183]

Pete I'll be honest I can't even remember the last time someone said that. You'd have to go back some time.

[DivineHand125]

Okay, I am satisfied with the offerings this month. This is better than the previous months.

[FinalFantasyFanatic]

Only satisfied? This is one of the best months in a long time, three really good games are on offer.

[Elda]

I've played all 3 already. All 3 are decent games. I really enjoyed "Nobody Saves The World" & "Evil West"

[Vengeance1138]

Best PS+ offerings in a long time! Evil West was on my wishlist for forever, hugely underrated title.

[gold_drake]

good month

[Abnor_Mal]

A few months ago another West game was made available and I thinking it was Evil West got happy, but then disappointed when I realized it wasn’t Evil West, now I’m happy again.

[etown61281]

Been hoping evil west would land on ps plus. Played the demo and been on the fence about buying it.

[S2Killinit]

I swear with the quality of games Sony gives away, how can anyone ever have enough time to play all of the games they want to play?

[Crows90]

Holy SHIT!
Wow. Thats a great ass month. Evil West is good, Requiem is my gotyr from when it released or best story of that year for me and nobody saves the world is a great game as well.

[Samonuske]

Been waiting to play Evil West and Plague tale! Awesome month.

[CobraKai]

Evil West has been on my list. Im excited to finally give it a shot

[anast]

Nice. Good value here.

[andron]

Nice

[Becuzisaid]

Not saying anything about this selection of games, but I'm giving up on ps+. I've gotten nothing personally from the subscription in a very long time, and don't play multiplayer games any more. For the first time since the introduction of ps+ I'm letting my subscription expire in June. I will not pay their ridiculous $80 for a never-improving service.

[purple101]

£50 worth of games

Not the games I’d have but the value is immense this month all top rated 9/10 games too

[Psychonaut85]

Muuuuuuch better month than last.
