GoWR, finally! Played it already, but good to see more recent first-party titles joining the service.
And I was just about to buy Like A Dragon as well, glad I held out. Some good additions this month.
I can’t believe you didn’t go with “Indiana Jones coming to PS Plus in January” as the heading
Awesome month !!!
Huge month for anyone who hasn't played ragnarok.
My PS Extra subscription expires on 31st January
Nothing on there particularly to my taste so happy to let it lapse for now
There's nothing for me in the Extra additions this month, but I've always wanted to play Indiana Jones and the Staff of Kings. That should be cool.
Indiana Jones threw me for a loop for a min. Glad to see finally see Medievil 2 on here. Hopefully both games launch with trophies.
Atlas fallen and medievil 2 for me
Yay! Sayonara Wild Hearts, Citizen Sleeper, Yakuza. Some great games there.
Sayonara for real this time?! Also Ragnarok and MEDIEVIL 2 is such a great start to the year!!
Wow, Gaiden AND Ragnarok?? Dang I was gonna cancel this month if the Extra games sucked but never mind. Haven't played a GOW game but Ragnarok definitely looks interesting. Still need to beat Infinite Wealth but I skipped Gaiden. Little disappointed that there's no PSVR2 in Premium but oh well
staff of kings is ALMOST enough to get me to pay for premium. the lineup is improving
This is a great lineup of games! There will definitely be at least three games going on my download list.
Solid lineup. Having Atlas Fallen and ANNO: Mutationem on the Portal us a big plus for me, and now us as good as time as any to finally play a Yakuza game.
I shell be buying Indy for sure.
@Ken_Kaniff Not sure about Indiana Jones but since Medievil 2 is a First party title Trophies are pretty much guaranteed.
Not got to Ragnarok yet so this is good. Wasn't expecting to see it on Plus so soon
Great lineup for the second month in a row... There are now 4 games on plus I want to play... but all my time is being taken by Infinity Nikki
God of War: Ragnarok!! Also always wanted to try Anno: Mutationem 👍🏼
God of War and citizen sleeper!!!!!!! ^_^
Ayyye we finally get MediEvil 2! That's awesome, it felt like this game had been tucked under a rug for a long time 😅
I literally just brought "Sayonara Wild Hearts" because the Devs other game is amazing "lorelei and the laser eyes" how that game wasn't even considered for indie game of the year is beyond me. Can I get refund from playstation if I haven't played the game yet but I have downloaded it?
Yes! I didnt expect GOWR quite yet. I bought and completed it, traded my copy. But then wanted to go back and play the Valhalla add-on.
Disapointing month... already own God of war and it's the only game on the list I would play....
Ohhh GOW:R I’ve been meaning to go back and finish God of war 2018. This might be the little kick I needed, lovely.
Have had GoW since launch. Have played bunch of the other games, including The Man Who Erased His Name, on GamePass. Kind of funny that PS Plus is getting the first Citizen Sleeper while the sequel is coming to GP the same month.
Indy and Medievil 2 have me interested though..
God of War: Ragnarok!?
That is very surprising.
Christ on a bike I just paid 40 notes for Ragnarok 😭🫣
Atlas Fallen is also a very cool game, but I played it on Gamepass already.
Cool slate of games this month for sure. GoW Ragnarok is definitely the biggest name here but titles like LaD Gaiden, Sayonara Wild Hearts and Citizen Sleeper definitely bump up the quality too and seeing Medievil 2 finally get rereleased (completing the whole series on PS5 at that) is wonderful to see. Not too bad a start for the year in all honesty (the starting Essential lineup aside XD).
Own Anno, Sayonara and Atlas Fallen already but glad for those getting to play them. All solid games. Happy with GoW R, wasn't ever going to buy it but I'll take it for 'free'.
Is there any point in playing Ragnarok if I found a previous GoW a snoozefest?
Definitely recommend playing Atlas Fallen. I finished it in co-op with my brother the other day and we were both pleasantly surprised by it.
@Dalamar Depends which God of War it was that you played. God of War and God of War Ragnarok are different enough from the older games that you still might like them. Ragnarok isn't the best place to jump in though, as it's a continuation of the 2018 game, so it's best to start with that one.
Wow what a month, Atlus fallen for me and GowR I've completed but I'll give it another go. Very pleased with this month's offerings.
Dang the survey must had paid off, people are winning 50/50s'
Asia's most likely going to have a slight change.
And, Ragnarok for me when I make time~
Do I replay LAD Gaiden’s PS4 version next week or just be patient for Majima’s game? I bought the PS5 physical version on playasia and have been kinda regretting not grabbing the PS4 one instead. Gaiden is fantastic and a must play. Ragnarok is amazing as well! Awesome month 😎😎
Indiana Jones and the Staff of Kings?! That I was not expecting. I do hope it's the PS2 version though and not the PSP one.
EDIT: After doing some research, it appears that this will, in fact, be the PS2 version.
Good month. There's a couple on there I'll definitely play.
Brilliant month! Finally can play Ragnarok and Like a Dragon Gaiden, I definitely need to finish Ishin soon then.
For those who were not fans of the turn based combat in the more recent Like a Dragon games, The Man Who Erased His Name is a return to the brawling style of the earlier titles in the series.
Amazing
I almost purchased like a dragon a week ago as well!!
Finally, finally a good month for me. There is like 4 games on my wishlist there, and another 2 I wanted to try out. Phewww
It can be considered a great month for many because of GOWR. But whenever a stellar game like that becomes available, the rest of the monthly lineup tends to be on the weaker side, like in this case for me.
That is why I prefer when no superstar game comes into the subscription, because more of the hidden or not so popular jewels become available to compensate, which are the ones I have my subscription for, not games that mostly everyone has already bought 2 years ago.
Finally bought Ragnarok in the Xmas sale, and haven't even got round to playing it.
You're all welcome!
@ChrisDeku after so many PS5pro baits, this is one really good bait they missed.
I have yet to get down to anything GoW, but perhaps I'll give Ragnarok a stream or two just to hear the music. Beating Xenoblade 3 OST at its respective award category does tempt to dare expect something of a similar caliber, after all.😃
@CWill97 you'll be able to finish it before pirate yakuza comes out
Premium subscribers got robbed again
FANTASTIC MONTH!! Like a Dragon Gaiden, Atlas Fallen, Citizen Sleeper!! Headlined by GoW Ragnarok!! Even MediEvil 2, that I never finished! Showstopper lineup!!
@Areus Well Disney has been adding them to there classics, so hopefully they will with Indy as well.
All the PS5 games should also be available for streaming on the Portal as well!
Im impressed with the line up of games, nice start to the year!
Stellar month with Ragnarok and Like A Dragon
Just bought GoW:R last month for $30, but at my pace it will likely take me more than a month anyway, especially with that dlc, so it’s break even.
Nothing else I’m bothered with.
If Astrobot or Lego Horizon showed up on Extra I’d pay the $15 to play either of those 12 hour games.
Actually massive
Good list but I think anyone that wanted play god of war ragnarok would of bought it
No VR? Well that makes the month a disappointment.
@Bentleyma yeah, it was GoW 2018 that I meant. Played it also on psplus and wasn't impressed.
@Frmknst I used to laugh myself when someone else had this happen to them 😝. Oh well
@Dan12836666 I've been stubbornly waiting on it to hit plus ever since they did the same with the first one.
It feels like I've been waiting forever for GoW Ragnarok to make it onto PS Plus. Here. We. Go.
Exceptional line up from the exceptional Sony.
I should have known that more LAD games would get added, considering the entire Yakuza series was on PS+ at one point. I bought both Isshin and this one on sale but my giant backlog is killing me yet again.
That said, these games usually only stay on for a year. Would I realistically be ready to play either of them within a year? Doubtful.
Aside from that, solid month. Curious about the Premium additions.
Dang. I just bought God of War: Ragnarok.
N.i.c.e. god of war ragnarok.like a dragon gaiden the man who erased his name.and medievil 2 is excellent.word up son
Atlas Fallen! Subscription services are the best thing what could happen to Eurojank.
Poor lineup for me. There's too much weight on the headliners which means the other titles suffer a dip in quality.
Also think they should space out the like a dragon/yakuza games more, we've only just got ishin added and they're always huge games.
Already own GoW. LaD im not in the mood for yet and ive got ishin still to play so Atlas fallen is the only one i'll probably take a look at from that list as I really liked the surge. Rest of the games don't interest me.
Looking forward to Medievil 2, I’ll def pick that one up!
Unbelievable.......got £60 in PS store credit from my sisters at christmas, bought God of War Ragnarok and Like A Dargon Gaiden. The headliners of this month. My consolation is i wanted t try anno mutationem
I just wanted to add: I've played and loved Citizen Sleeper and Sayonara Wild Hearts, so don't sleep on those
I think now I can get a month or two of premium between Citizen Sleeper, the Sly trilogy and my recent desire to play God of War 3, seems like it is worth it. Played Sayonara Wild Hearts was very fun, special shoutout to the level and music called Parallel Universe.
I'm looking forward to Knack 2, next month for sure...
I was thinking of buying atlas fallen so this is a thumbs up from me. Not really interested in the other titles and I've already got GOW..
@zupertramp well your in a treat that's for sure amazing game
Weak month for myself. Already played GoW:R but is a great addition for those who have no played it.
Like a Dragon is another good addition but already played it when it was on Game Pass.
Premium is a little bit of a joke this month. Back to the old ways it seems lol
GoW:R, Atlas Fallen, SD Gundam, Medievil and a retro indy game. Some very good additions there this month. Shame there is no VR game, but the rest of the content makes up for it.
Just adding to all the other positive noise around Sayonara Wild Hearts. Great little game and wicked soundtrack, ended up being one of my most played albums of the last few years on Spotify
No PSVR2 game this time which is a bit of a shame
Can we get a new forum section potentially called " what I'm doing with my PS sub" ? It seems many people are convinced everyone else wants to know .......... We don't! keep it, ,let it lapse, gift it to the neighbour, we don't care!
@Dalamar It's meant to be like the 1st (new one) but better and bigger in every way. I didn't like GoW 2018 much either, but i'll give Ragnorok a try.
Do we happen to know if Ragnarok will be added to the PS Portal cloud streaming beta or if that list of games is static for the time being? My TV time has been extremely limited lately so making use of my portal and (bafflingly) the cloud streaming works much better than the remote play.
ANNO: Mutationem is the one for me.
Bad news for VR2, no new games.
Well guess it's time to finish the first GoW so I can start preparing for Ragnarok.
No Psvr2 game this month ...
@themightyant @nhSnork @playstation1995 @Max_the_German @Northern_munkey @DualWielding @rjejr @Quintumply This is the first month that's EVER been a complete bust for me. I own EVERY single game being added! That said, I'm glad more people will have the chance to play these great games!
@WiiWareWave I know that feeling when there is nothing for you, it sucks, but I hope that there is stuff you haven't gotten around to elsewhere. Totally agree there are many great games here.
I might check out Atlas Fallen, will definitely be adding both Indiana and Medievil to my library though.
@WiiWareWave " I own EVERY single game being added! "
OK serious question. If you own that many games, why are you paying for a game rental service? PS+ I get, it's required for online play and cloud saves so you may have no choice. But to pay extra for Extra and/or Premium when you OWN that many games. 🤷♂️
