PlayStation Plus subscribers have huge expectations for August’s free games

It’s almost time for Sony to announce what games are going to be handed out to PlayStation Plus subscribers next month, and you know what that means. Predictions and rumours are currently running rampant online, and fans are expecting some seriously huge games.

As we all know,PlayStation Plus’ Essential-tier offerings can be a bit hit or miss. For every gem likeStar Wars Jedi: Fallen Order, there’s something likeFallout76to serve as a reminder that going into each month’s PS Plus announcement, we should probably temper our expectations. Clearly, not everyone got that memo this month.

Until 31 July, PS Plus subscribers can claimEndling: Extinction is Forever- take a look at the trailer below.

Over onReddit, PlayStation users have been sharing their predictions for August’s PS Plus Essential freebies, and depending on what actually gets announced, it seems like there could be some seriously disappointed people. Many are predicting that the excellent rogue-like dungeon crawler (andGAMINGbible’s 2020 Game of the Year)Hadeswill be included in August’s lineup. This would be a truly fantastic choice - the gameplay is endlessly engrossing, the characters are charming, and their interactions are phenomenal.

Another popular prediction isMarvel’s Spider-Man. Insomniac Games’ 2018 action-adventure was recently pulled from PlayStation Plus’ Extra-tier catalogue, and obviously,Marvel’s Spider-Man 2is right around the corner, so it’d be a great time to hand it out.

There’s also a fair few people predicting thatCyberpunk 2077will be included, and given that thePhantom LibertyDLC is releasing in September, giving away the base game right now would give gamers just the right amount of time to get caught up ahead of the expansion’s release.
