Chary · Nov 25, 2020

The latest lineup of PlayStation Plus games have been revealed. Subscribers can look forward to playing three games this December, across the PlayStation 5 and PlayStation 4 platforms. The two PS4 games are Just Cause 4--an open-world action game--and Rocket Arena--a 3v3 online competitive hero shooter. A cross platform game, Worms Rumble, will be available for both the PS4 and the PS5, offering a new spin on the classic Worms experience, with 32-player crossplatform multiplayer. All three games will be available to download on December 1st. In addition, PS+ subscribers will still be able to pick up Bugsnax, last month's free game, until January 4, 2021. Meanwhile, there will be a limited 2-day free online weekend, where anyone with a PlayStation Network account will be able to experience Call of Duty Black Ops: Cold War, Grand Theft Auto V, and FIFA 21 online modes without having to pay for PS+. The free weekend will take place on December 19th and will last until December 20th.

Excited for Battle Royale real time Worms. I've been wanting a game like that for the series for years. Shame that the environments don't appear to get destroyed though, I can understand how easily that could be abused, but still it's a staple feature for the franchise

Just Cause 4 nice I don't have to buy the game now.

I've never played a battle royale game, but I might check it out if it's worms related! certainly different if the environments don't get ruined, like you said. that's a key feature of worms right!

I checked it out... some things are destroyable, but yeah, not a traditional worms game at all. there's too much going on for me!

Wait, we get 3 games this December on PS4?

People do actually rely on ps plus free weekends? Lmao

DJPlace · Nov 25, 2020

too short for a free weekend. how about a free week during x-mas since most people can't buy plus at all. 90% can 10% can't.

I played the beta a couple of weekends ago and it's pretty good. It's not turn based like the traditional worms games but it retains that spirit of wacky antics. The beta was obviously limited on content so when the full game gets going with more weapons and customization options it could really be something excellent. As long as they fix the graphical errors present in the beta. But it's a lot of fun regardless, knocking back a Holy Hand Grenade with the baseball bat and killing whoever threw it never gets old.

this is pretty solid IMO, two of these games I could see myself playing.
But hey, Cyberpunk is around the corner... and I haven't played the past 24 free PS+ games yet

The PS5 logo just looks like "PS(different S)" to me.

I already have the deluxe version of Just Cause 4. I wish Sony would bring back giving us PS3/Vita games as I'm not impressed with the couple of games offered each month. Most of the time I already have them. Microsoft gives you at least one Xbox 360 game each month. Current 360 games with gold I've been wanting but was waiting for a sale as I didn't feel like paying the $20 for Lego Indiana Jones.
