Today, we’re pleased to announce the games that will be part of Vote to Play — our special promotion that enables PlayStation Plus members to vote on one of three PlayStation 4 games for next month’s PS Plus game lineup. All three of these games would be a great addition to our lineup, and we want to put the choice in your hands when voting begins on Thursday, August 13th.
Without further ado, here are the games on the ballot.
Armello
A grim fairy-tale board game come to life, combining deep, tactical card play, rich tabletop strategy, and RPG elements. Set in a vibrant magical world with a tinge of darkness, Armello thrusts players into an epic struggle for power as they quest, scheme, explore, vanquish monsters, perform the mad king’s royal edicts, and face off against other players, with one ultimate end goal in mind — storming the palace and becoming King or Queen of Armello.
Grow Home
You play BUD (Botanical. Utility. Droid), a robot on a mission to find the Star Plant and save his planet. Discover a strange open-world: a planet of floating islands, with precipitous drops, caves and waterfalls to navigate, all rendered in a minimalist but beautiful art style. Grow the giant Star Plant and use your unique climbing abilities to reach ever higher ground, but be careful as you ascend because one wrong move and it’s a long way down!
Zombie Vikings
From the creators of last year’s indie hit Stick It to The Man! comes a new co-op, four-player stab-you-in-the-gut-a-thon with a dead-funny adventure. Hack through the boiling gingerbread swamps of Molgaga, take a cruise through the intestines of the Midgaard Serpent, fight giant troll poultry, and find out how Söccer was really invented.
Voting starts Thursday, August 13th at 8:30 AM Pacific (update: we are currently tracking for 10am Pacific Time) and ends Monday, August 24th, at 8:30 AM Pacific. The final result will be revealed after voting closes. If you’re a PS Plus member and you want to cast your vote, simply log on to PS4 with your PSN account, and access Vote to Play under “What’s New,” “Notifications,” or visit the PS Plus section of the PlayStation Store, where you’ll find details for Vote to Play.
The game with the most votes will automatically be included in our September free game lineup, and PlayStation Plus members can get the two runners-up at a discount. We can’t wait to see what PlayStation Plus members decide for September in our first Vote to Play event. We’ll have more events in the future, so stay tuned.
You can find more information about Vote to Play here, along with the benefits of being a PlayStation Plus member.
So tell us, what game are you planning to vote for?
Personally, I never tried “Stick It To The Man”, but DID see a trailer sometime ago on “Zombie Vikings”, and REALLY wanted to play it asap. It reminded me of “Dragon’s Crown”, which I still love. Haters, if you don’t like what you see, move on with your lives, because your opinions, stacked against the ones that WANT these games, will only make you look silly. You say you don’t care, but you waste time in your own lives to make sure people know it. You say you don’t like what you see, yet no one cares what YOU think when you say it in a snobby way. There IS a fourth option in voting for these games. It’s not an actual “None” button, but you can simply abstain from voting. As for dropping a 1,000 baseballs on my lawn… I CAN value those baseballs without caring about baseball. I’d sell them to people who’d want them. -And just to snub YOU, who spent about a dollar per ball to litter my lawn and make a flawed point, I’d sell them for HALF that price and STILL make a profit, without even needing to let you know just how much I don’t care about baseball. See…? Wise men (me) speak because they have something to say. Fools (you), because you just HAVE to say something. :p
They had value to you because you wanted to sell them. I would not want the hassle of selling 1000 baseballs and would assuredly not want them on my lawn. They would have negative value because I have to do the work of removing them and disposing of them.
