We’re nearing the end of another month, which means that attention must turn away from the current crop of PlayStation Plus goodies and towards June 2017’s lineup. We’re not entirely sure when the roster will be announced – most likely it’s going to be 31st May – but we’re fully expecting the freebies to be made available on 6th June.
Unfortunately the only new releases currently announced for that day seem extremely unlikely to be given away: WipEout Omega Collection and The Elder Scrolls Online: Morrowind. It means it could be yet another month of Sony dipping into its archives, with perhaps something to setup its E3 2017 press conference making the cut. How about God of War III: Remastered?
Of course, as always, we’d love to hear the kind of games you’re after this month. May 2017’s update was a good one, with Tales from the Borderlands and either Abzu or Alienation being solid picks depending on your region, so hopefully the Japanese giant can keep this good run going now. What would make a good update for you? As always, let us know.

I keep pining for Amnesia collection but I doubt it. I can guarantee though it will be something that I have just bought! I think Life is strange is going to go free soon personally.
It doesn't really matter what games we 'want'.
We have to have what we're 'given'.
still surprises me that Killzone & Knack haven't been on tbh
Not hopping, but I think we may see Shadow warrior. The new one is bundled with the first free, also we seen it on sales for a very low price.
Not bothered most games I want I have and I cant see Horizon zero Dawn,Tom Clancy's Wildlands, and Resi 7 becoming plus games because that is all I want at the moment once they become under 20 Quid physical or Digital then I buy.
The only issue I have with psplus is its high time for a single player AAA action game of some sought. Wherever knack, Killzone, Infamous, bloodborne etc.
After the announcement of Life Is Strange 2 how about the original game to whet the appetite of the people, like me, who haven't played it.
I also thought for Europe especially Persona 2 Eternal Punishment on the Vita/PS4 as it isn't available to buy out here. Would be a nice gesture from Atlus.
2064: Read Only Memories please.
A little early for this post isn't it?
@zimbogamer Yeah, the announcement won't happen for another nine days lol. "Darn you @Megumi you've got me ending most of my posts in lol now" lol! xP
On-Topic: I'd like to see one of the Atelier games or Space Invaders Infinity Gene as part of our monthly awards for PS3.
Also does Sony even give away Vita exclusive games through the service anymore? Or at least retail cross-buy titles?
Battlefield 1
@Reanfan7 from PlayStation-only perspective, Severed was apparently the latest Vita exclusive, although it's naturally also on 3DS. If you mean sheer exclusiveness, the reddit list suggests that Oreshika was the latest such title back in July 2016.
I sure appreciated Alienation's RPG elements (and LDD's concept of "the bullet hell is YOU"), but Type:Rider was May's most impressive giveaway for me so far. A very charming game, another one that wasn't even on my radar before I got it. So I sure am open for more of such surprises.
Otherwise, I might as well just repeat my wishlist for some fighting, racing or Japanese role-playing games genre-wise - and some delicious PSP/PS1/PS2 titles platform-wise. Ironically, the latter still represents the biased subscribers' BIGGEST odds of getting an AAA game in IGC. XD Incidentally, last year saw PSP titles present from May to August, so maybe this summer could reprise the trend?
Meanwhile, I expected the actual reveal next week before I checked back with the calendar. That's quite a few months postponing "the first Tuesday" already - Murphy's law manifesting even in such trivial things or what? XD
Tekken 7, plez.
Outlast 2 would seem logical for two reasons. The first being that the prior Outlast received the status of a PS Plus game. The second being that (with much debate) a lot of people see Outlast 2 as either slightly above or down to the bone mediocre. Meaning, it would give people who don't want to buy a game they don't fully like to experience the aspects they do find entertaining with no cost whatsoever.
Knack 1 to hype up knack 2 at E3
Life is Strange has been free all month in the Asia PSN store.
Half Life 3 & ET: The Videogame 4K remake. Dead certs the pair.
June is the month where my plus sub expires! Better give me Red Dead Redemption 2 and The Last of Us 2 or I'll not renew...
It will be Mafia 3 cuz I bought it yesterday for $20 on eBay.
Easy. Just swap the European and N.American PS Plus May giveaways for June. N.Americans get Type:Rider and Aliennation and Europe gets Abzu and Tales from Borderland.
I want darksider remaster and 1 good indie games.
Just joined Push Square some minutes ago. Seen a lot of insightful comments & discussion (with minimum trolling). Great site to satisfy my PS gaming news needs. Lol.
On topic, God of War 3 Remastered & Life is Strange & Alienation been free since couple of months ago on SEAsia PSN.
Tbh, I'm kinda surprised when internet discussed the different May PSplus free games lineup for US & UK (it even make headline for several gaming sites). For SEAsia, it is always been different lineup than US & UK most the times. SEAsia PSN still waiting for Transformer Devastation be included as PSplus game.
Personally, I wish June lineup to includes Knack or Killzone SF or Darksider remastered (either entry will do) along with some surprise indie title.
I just want something I don't have. I'd be happy just for that like every month. I don't think that's unreasonable... I prefer the Plus discounts anyway. I mean Plus Is pretty good for the price; $60 bucks for free games every month, discounts, online... I can get all that on PC for free, but well I dunno... I think it's worth it.
I am also subbed to the Humble Monthly Bundle! Now that is value! It is a quite a bit more expensive though, but $150 worth of games for $12 a month is a god&@#! bargain!
If Sony were to do something similar to that, I wouldn't mind paying an additional $15 bucks a month assuming those games' licences didn't expire when my Plus did!
@Number09 I wouldn't/couldn't wait that long for HZD tbh. That game is greatness but I do know whatcha mean. Those games I want I just buy. I don't wait for them to be on PS Plus line-up.
Kinda on-topic, But I have a niggly feeling that we might get some news on a slightly revamped PS+ at E3, timing seems about right, 20th anniversary of the store, the Pro and VR now in circulation, the upcoming X Scorpion will surely have them chatting behind the scenes as well
God of War 3 would be very convenient for me as I'm just playing through the first on PS Now then plan to play the 2nd and pick up the PS4 Remastered version. Can't see them giving it away though, hope I'm wrong...
@JAMes-BroWWWn The reviews have been great for Horizon zero dawn truth is I have far too much backlog FF15 Skyrim which is incredible Yakusa 0 and the Witcher to name a few it really is a good time for gamers. I am able to sit back and buy these games I want discounted.
@wilsondtm Welcome to one of the last decent places on the web! Youll fit right in here Im sure.
@Kidfried Thanks. Been following this site for some time but only signed up today. Mainly I'm kind of worry if there are many trolling comments or discussion that are 'heated' among the member.
But after look into lot of good insightful discussion on the site. I decided to sign up & join the discussion.
Have to agree with you. This is a decent (more than decent in my book though, lol) gaming site available.
Perhaps Knack this time??
Uncharted 4
I already own it physically but would like to have it digitally.
Think Destiny could be a good shout with the new game coming later and being able to pick the base game up for next to nothing they could make money off all the DLC's too. Hope not though as I already have it lol.
@Number09 hahaha yeah it's really a great time to be a gamer. And I do understand you those games you mentioned are must haves so definitively take your time. I am playing thru my backlog too. So many good games and Sony seems not to stop giving us even more
@RedFinch Type:Rider was a N. America PS Plus game in May as well.
I would really like to see Sony shake the Plus service up at E3. Maybe have tiered memberships or throw in some better discounts. Like, give away one promising indie and a massive discount (90% off or something) on a retail title. That way you could pick up something like Wolfenstein God of War III for £2.99. I personally wouldn't mind spending a couple of quid on a decent title I'd otherwise not play, and it would boost sales for overlooked titles. As is, I'm just not bothered about the plus titles most of the time. Alienation was good though.
@zombieducklings Thanks, I did not know Type:Rider was free for N. America as well - I distinctly remember having to pay to download it for PS4. I also didn't get the Laser Disco game. Are they Vita only?
@RedFinch I think it was Vita but had cross-buy with PS4.
@Strebor_ Exactly
