PlayStation Plus Game and Classics Catalog Update for May 2023 Revealed

/

Sony Interactive Entertainment announced the May 2023 Game Catalog and Classic Catalog lineup.

The title leading this PlayStation Plus Extra and Classic Catalogue update is Ratchet and Clank: Rift Apart, a PS5 exclusive that I personally think showcases what the system can do.

Another title worth noting is the inclusion of Humanity, as it will be available to PlayStation Plus Extra and Premium/Deluxe subscribers on day 1 of the game’s release, which is May 16.

This update also adds the latest Tomb Raider trilogy and more Bethesda titles. Here’s the full list as these games will be available for download starting May 16.

Game Catalog - May 2023 (Extra and Premium/Deluxe)

  • Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart (PS5)

  • Humanity (PS5, PS4)

  • Watch Dogs: Legion (PS5, PS4)

  • Dishonored 2 (PS4)

  • Dishonored: Death of the Outsider (PS4)

  • Sakuna: Of Rice and Ruin (PS4)

  • Tomb Raider: Definitive Edition (PS4)

  • Rise of the Tomb Raider: 20 Year Celebration (PS4)

  • Shadow of the Tomb Raider (PS4)

  • Bus Simulator 21: Next Stop (PS5, PS4)

  • The Evil Within 2 (PS4)

  • Wolfenstein: Youngblood (PS4)

  • Blade Dancer: Lineage of Light (PS5, PS4)

  • Pursuit Force (PS5, PS4)

It’s a solid update for the service as Sony is delivering quite a variety of games. For one, this feels like the second wave of Bethesda titles coming to the service as last month PS Plus members were given access to games like Wolfenstein II: The New Colossus , Doom Eternal, and the classic Doom titles.

This PlayStation Plus update is separate from the Monthly Games Sony offers as this month’s Monthly Games are already available in the service, making Chivalry 2, Grid Legends, and Descenders available to all PlayStation Plus members.

Sonic X Shadow Generations blasts into the stratosphere by delivering a flashy, Shadow-centric epic with high-energy Doom Powers, excellent level design that strikes the right balance between fun and challenge, and a lot of heart in its short story.

Until Dawn 2024 Review (PS5) -  A Visual Upgrade with a Familiar Experience

Ballistic Moon’s Until Dawn remake polishes the 2015 horror classic with impressive visual upgrades and little additions. However, beyond the sharper visuals and slight changes, the core experience remains the same. Fans seeking a fresh take may find little reason to pick this up over the original, as the gameplay and story haven’t evolved beyond minor improvements.
