If you haven't gotten around to trying Balatro in the wake of the game's massive success last year, this might be the time to, as PlayStation will be making it part of the free games of the month for PlayStation Plus subscribers. The lineup for the month of May headlines Ark: Survival Ascended, along with Balatro and Warhammer 40,000: Boltgun. These three games will be available on the service starting May 6th. You have until May 5th to grab last month's lineup of Robocop: Rogue City, The Texas Chainsaw Massacre, and Digimon Cyber Sleuth: Hacker's Memory.

MS wins again

it blows my mind that any console is capable of running ark in any form, it's one of the most unoptimized games i've ever seen

 

[Bagel Le Stinky]

Gotta be kidding me! I JUST bought balatro a few days ago for full price!

How? MS doesnt even have the "free" monthly games anymore. They ended Games With Gold a couple years ago so you're comparing Sony's offering to, nothing, then saying MS wins.

Proper comparison would be the monthly catalogue additions, which have not yet been revealed for PlayStation & the only really big title for GamePass in May is Doom: The Dark Ages. Which I personally have zero interest in.

i can finally see what the hype for balatro is....

 

[Foxi4]

Boltgun’s been on my list for a while, can’t wait to dig in.

 

[Silterpy]

Nice, i was interested in Ark Survival Ascended and was waiting for Balatro to go on sale

That's okay, Balatro is worth buying three times over. Better that your access to it isn't tied to a subscription fee, too.

more drip fed bs but at least they have games people actually want to play AND they are in ENGLISH!

Boltgun is great, give it a try if you haven't yet.

Approximately 18.8% of the world speaks English. You are in a minority.

All the more reason users of Sony, Nintendo, XBox should push to have a Steam-like refund system! Especially all those trashy digital waste titles (ie. the majority of what RedDeerGames publish and all those other scummy assetflip "publishers")

Mediocre at best.

The age of good "free" games died when MS stop offering Games with Gold program.

That's one heck of a case of selective memory.

I don't care. Balatro can go to hell.

Microsoft is winning so hard. That's why they are raising prices, including games, when they are already facing the possibility of becoming the next Sega.

Yep.

Its like they want to fail. I don't get MS strategy at all.

But lets get real, MS is eons away of becoming early 2000's SEGA. SEGA was nearly bankrupt and MS is a Trillion Dollars+ global juggernaut. They can loose a lot of money on Xbox division without breaking a sweat.

outside of balatro this is an L lineup ngl

anything free is a plus to me
