Batman: Arkham Knight

In the explosive finale to the Arkham series, Batman faces the ultimate threat against the city he is sworn to protect. The Scarecrow returns to unite an impressive roster of super villains, including Penguin, Two-Face and Harley Quinn, to destroy The Dark Knight forever. Batman: Arkham Knight introduces Rocksteady's uniquely designed version of the Batmobile, which is drivable for the first time in the franchise. The addition of this legendary vehicle, combined with the acclaimed gameplay of the Batman Arkham series, offers gamers the ultimate and complete Batman experience as they tear through the streets and soar across the skyline of the entirety of Gotham City.

Darksiders III

Return to an apocalyptic Earth in Darksiders III, a hack-n-slash Action Adventure where players assume the role of FURY in her quest to hunt down and dispose of the Seven Deadly Sins. The most unpredictable and enigmatic of the Four Horsemen, FURY must succeed where many have failed – to bring balance to the forces that now ravage Earth. Darksiders III is the long-anticipated, third chapter in the critically-acclaimed Darksiders franchise.

• Play as FURY - a mage who must rely on her whip and magic to restore the balance between good and evil on Earth!
• Harness FURY’s magic to unleash her various forms – each granting her access to new weapons, moves and traversal abilities.
• Explore an open-ended, living, free-form game world in which FURY moves back and forth between environments to uncover secrets while advancing the story.
• Defeat the Seven Deadly Sins and their servants who range from mystical creatures to degenerated beings.

What's a XBOX Trailer doing on a playstation Thread?

I'm really surprised that a relatively new game like Darksiders 3 is in Plus already - I'm not complaining, but I wonder how well it sold originally.

Nice! I hope the people who haven't played Arkham Knight gives it a try, I love that game.

Do you have to be actively using your account during the month of release and actually download them each month to own them? Say if I went backpacking around the world for a year, but kept paying my monthly sub, would I be able to get all those games when I get back home?

Just being subscribed isn't enough, you need to actually add them to your library when they are free, in some regional storefronts you need to click "Download", while in others such as the American one you have "Add to Library"

I'm sure you can claim them via the website, so you should still be able to claim them

The two users above are correct, you have to claim your games by either downloading them or adding them to your library. Don't worry though - you can do so online, on PC or mobile, which will add them to your queue. If your console is in Rest Mode, they will start downloading for you and will be ready to play when you coke back. If it's not, you'll have them in the library, at least.

EDIT:

Awesome, thanks guys!

There's also Deiland which is also being offered for free.
I spent a couple hours playing the game yesterday and I was pleasantly surprised with how interesting it was.

 

[Techjunky90]

Trash & more trash, just like 99% of current gen games.

 

[raxadian]

Batman: Arkham Knight is terrible, is like when the series jumped to the PS4 it lost it's soul and replaced with a sign that says "Give me money!"

 

[ChaosEternal]

Two bad games from good series. Guess they wanted a theme for this month?

Definitely, any action fan should give it a blast. I actually started playing it from scratch on my Xbox just a couple of days ago (game pass) but I’ll still be claiming it for PlayStation, after all it’s free (ish).
