PlayStation Plus is Sony’s membership club for those of us who use the PS4, PS3 and/or PS Vita consoles. Sony’s current pricing structure offers 1-month membership at £6.99, 3-month membership at £19.99, and 12-month membership at £49.99. You can also buy PS Plus membership through places like Amazon, where you sometimes see price fluctuations that can save you a few quid.
And what do you get for your money? Well, one of the main draws of PS Plus is that it connects you with a handful of free games every month. Also, certain games only allow members of PS Plus to access online multiplayer modes. There are loads of other perks, as well, including discounts on games and early access to things like betas and demos.
In this article, we’re going to focus on the free games you can get with PlayStation Plus each month. For January 2019, Sony has announced these freebie offerings for PS Plus members…
