What to expect from next month's PlayStation Plus lineup.
Credit: Erik KainMarch is almost upon us, and with it a brand new lineup of free PlayStation Plus Essential games just in time for Halloween season. What will the first spring offerings of 2025 be this time?
February’s PS Plus Essential lineup included Payday 3, High on Life and Pac-Man Re-Pac. Will March have a better slate?
Read on for more information on next month’s PS Plus lineup.
PS Plus is Sony’s monthly membership program that grants access to online gaming. You don’t need it for streaming movies or TV shows on Netflix and other services, or for free-to-play games like Warzone or Fortnite. Any paid online games, however, require a subscription.
There are three PS Plus tiers—Essential, Extra and Premium—though for the purposes of this post we’re only discussing the Essential tier’s free monthly games. Following a big price-hike, these tiers cost:PS Plus Essential — $79.99/year; PS Plus Extra — $134.99/year; PS Plus Premium — $159.99/year.
Sony typically reveals the following month’s games on the last Wednesday of the month, though this isn’t always the case. The actual rule of thumb is that the new lineup always releases on the first Tuesday of the month and the games are revealed the previous Wednesday.
This means that we should get our reveal on Wednesday, February 26th with the games becoming available next Tuesday, March 4th.
We have no announcements, leaks or rumors yet for the PS Plus titles coming in March and the only games that release on PS5 on Tuesday, March 4th are Age Of Mythology: Retold, Carmen Sandiego, Two Point Museum and War Robots: Frontiers.
At this point, all we can do is speculate unless something leaks or we get a full reveal.
Some of these are “wishful thinking” choices and some are genuinely bad games that we all know Sony loves to stick in there from time to time.
