Cities: Skylines and Farming Simulator 19 are Your PlayStation Plus Games for May

Build the metropolis of your dreams or get to tilling the land as you embrace an agricultural lifestyle.

Two very different lifestyles will compete for your time thanks to next month’s PlayStation Plus lineup. Challenge yourself to design, then maintain, your ultimate metropolis in city-building strategy sim Cities: Skylines. Want a break from the city life? Take in the country air as you turn your hand to agriculture in Farming Simulator 19.  

Let’s take a closer look at both games. 

Cities: Skylines – PlayStation 4 Edition

Cities: Skylines and Farming Simulator 19 are Your PlayStation Plus Games for May

Do you have what it takes to develop a small, bustling community into a sprawling megacity? In Cities: Skylines, the acclaimed city builder sim by Paradox Interactive, you make the decisions that will see your city flourish or fail. You’ll need strategic smarts to keep your burgeoning ecosystem from collapse, ensuring your ever-growing populace stay happy and the industries that are the lifeblood of your expanding metropolis continue to thrive.   

Farming Simulator 19

Cities: Skylines and Farming Simulator 19 are Your PlayStation Plus Games for May

Stressed by the bustling city life and eager to tackle a more sedate livelihood? Rural escapism awaits with Farming Simulator 19! Developer GIANTS Software has packed in a wealth of agricultural pastimes to lose yourself in as you set out to maintain a homestead. Harvest crops, raise livestock, tackle forest, ride your own horses…or just jump behind the wheel of your John Deere tractor or one of over 300 authentic farming vehicles and go for a drive.  

Both titles will be available to download from Tuesday, May 5, until Monday, June 1.

Last Chance! Grab April’s PS Plus Games

As a reminder, you’ve still got until Monday, May 4, to download this month’s PS Plus games. Quick wits, fast fists and inventive use of weaponry are essential to survive the danger-filled, globe-trotting journey of Uncharted 4: A Thief’s End, while nerves of steel and precision driving are essential to roar to championship glory in racing sim DIRT Rally 2.0.

  • Oh the horrible irony…cities are going bankrupt and farms are euthanizing animals in real life…so Sony gives us 2 SIM games while we are locked up that are already on ps now…not a good ps plus month at all…thank God TLOU2 will be here in June…Sony please say this was fake news

  • Disappointed…A friend has been recommending I purchase PS Plus because of the game line-ups have been incredible and given the situation I finally decided to try it out and bought a year. Could not be more disappointed.

  • While XBOX ONE players are getting Red Dead Redemption 2 this month.

    • nicolasmarcosti

      Really? Incredible, every time makes more sense change PS4 for X-One

    • The downside is you have to get an xbox, the most unreliable gaming console line in history. Your account will list that you have RDR2, but you won’t be able to play it.

    • Sammy______Snake

      to be fair RDR2 is on game pass. It’s not a Games With Gold game.

      Crawgats, Got an OG xbox one, I’ve never had any issues. My PS4 on the other hand constantly and disconnects my external HD, freezes, resets and has now bricked it.

      PS4 sucks by comparison, it’s really **** and is a constant source of frustration

  • wolfmoonassasin9

    Looking good

  • Wow this is just awful.

    • This is the primary reason I stop getting ps plus. It’s the same sh#$ over and over again, you guys release 1 good game for ps plus then you give us crap for the next 5 months. I can’t wait for the new xbox to drop so I can ditch my ps4

    • Totally agree. I saw Xbox Game Pass also has more AAA titles that aren’t only going to be there for 3-6 months.

  • CaptainHamtardo

    Brutal lol. Are you guys trying to make us hate our PS4s in time for the PS5 release? I’m kidding, I’m kidding, hopefully a lot of folks wanted these games. They can’t all be great for everyone, but for me the pile of PS Plus games that are just licenses in my library and will never be downloaded is getting pretty big…

  • I’ve been underwhelmed with PS Plus since I joined a few months ago, but this sure takes the cake as the biggest disappointment. Not only are these not titles I’d expect from a quality brand like PlayStation, but they are both already available to play through PS Now. What’s the point in me paying for both?? I’ve barely seen any special deals for PS Plus members in the store and I don’t really do online play, so my experience with this service has been abysmal. I don’t expect I will be renewing once my membership runs out unless they really do something to impress me or make me feel valued as a customer, but unfortunately I’ve never really felt that with Sony. Can’t even get a decent customer support chat with a “premium” subscription. Might buy an Xbox next gen.

    • dude I didnt even think of the ps now availability. sony really dropping the ball lately, big time with this one. this could have been such a great opportunity during this time of social isolation, instead they released absolute junk.

  • global pandemic requiring long periods of social isolation. what does sony do? re release 2 ps plus games, and put out absolute trash for their may ps plus line up. farming simulator? are you kidding? people pay for this kind of garbage?

    • Sammy______Snake

      Ikr, cynical PR move. The core audience already has it, easy PR score that costs you nothing… Yet you crap on the paying customers.

  • NicholasSommerby

    Oh I get it. With Covid-19 shutting everything down, this is Sony telling us that we can still do our part by farming virtual land and taking part in fictional virtual businesses…you know, to prepare ourselves for when everything reopens.

    What a terrible joke, Sony.

  • Straight garbage!!! Id download them just so i could delete them…why theres better games but to add to building simulators lame extremely cheap and lame.

    • Sammy______Snake

      you’d have to download them first. That could take you a couple of days or a maybe a week with the abysmal speed

  • nicolasmarcosti

    Weren’t there better games for this month? Come on, are we really paying for this? RIDICULOUS!

    And the worst is that PSN looks like be proud of announce these games.

  • Fiz a assinatura de um ano. E já estou vendo q não vou renovar . Vou jogar no meu ps1 q e mais interessante

  • I own Skylines, it’s not an easy game but it is fun and addictive.

    Farming Sim? I know one person on my friends list that owns it. I’d never buy it. And probably never play it. PES was a game catered to more people and that was changed. Time to change Farming to something else.

    Also stop giving bus games that requires tons of dlc! Nobody will buy it as they don’t even like the games.

  • This isn’t funny, John. This isn’t funny at all. Whoever thought this was a good idea doesn’t know what they’re doing.

  • nickbluefox1965

    Sorry, but Mays choices are the worst I’ve seen. I will not be downloading them. I don’t know anyone happy with these choices. What are PlayStation playing at and what a load of rubbish. What are we paying our yearly subscription for. Please change the choices for May NOW!!!!

  • I really never complain, but please this is a joke right. Those games are garbage. So disappointing.

  • Not really complaining… I mean, yeah they suck taint… but they’re free.

    • Not really free. You’re paying for PS Plus, and most online game creators use their own servers. So what are you paying for?

  • Wasn’t there anybody on your team that said “Hey this is a Bad idea!!”, you can buy this stuff in the bargain bin at a supermarket.

  • While literally anything is better than Uncharted, we didn’t expect that to be the bar by which you’d choose future games. Thanks for another trash month.

  • Probably the worst line up I’ve seen on ps plus for a while

  • Worst game choices ever, yet you want top prices for games. Must be making millions every day and you give is these boring games. Yawn..

  • LEFT__4__DEAD__2

    cities skylines is very fun, i camt wait to try it, Farming simulator is ok i dont hate it, better than some other months!

  • Dying light would be so much better then these trash games

  • Worst selection ever.

  • This is horrible 2 sim games teasing us about outside where when we’re all lock down how insensitive are you too the on going situations

    • Maybe horizon zero dawn which is now a playstation hit game and maybe final fantasy x/x-2 which would of boosted your sales of final fantasy 7 remastered

  • Least it’s something different, but how about a jrpg already.

    • Sammy______Snake

      please god, a jrpg just once a year would be nice.

      All we get are repeats and generic oversaturated games

  • You guys are a little late, April fools was last month. Stop trolling and release the real list please of PS Plus May 2020 titles.

  • You may have to give up actual good games next month to make up for this blunder.

  • Massive disappointment. I’m not one for building sims and the fact they are putting two in one month isn’t ridiculous. Especially with everything going on right now and everyone stuck at home. Thanks for making quarantine even worse.

  • WTF Sony these games suck these are games u literally play on your phone not on PlayStation

  • Naaah bruh you gotta be kidding

  • patricioparedesc

    I just want to know where the triple A game is? They are 2 filler games, I have to renew my membership soon and with this type of games I will not think about renewing it, it no longer makes sense to have PS Plus so the online mode is supposed to be free.

  • patricioparedesc

    I am not asking for a game like god of war 4 at least replace it with a worthwhile one.

  • patricioparedesc

    How hard is it to replace a game with one worth playing? think that your players are locked up in the house and this is a way to lose weight, an adventure or sport game maybe

  • I’m sorry but I’m not impressed with the selections for this month they are trash but then again what was I thinking Sony isn’t really giving away anything they know people will play they are about there money

  • I’m ecstatic..😒

  • The free games for May are a testament to how much PlayStation really doesn’t care about its users. Most of the civilized world is under quarantine and they decide to give us farming simulator 19 and the 2nd Sims game this year. I would rather play Shaqfu with a broken controller while getting hit in the back of the head with a sock full of quarters

  • Almost every game you all release every month is already part of playstation now. First time ever subscribing to it and its such a waste of money. I wont be renewing my now. And wow 2 sims…really?

  • P.s. of you do I’ll buy a ps5…… ;-)

  • undercantrol770

    What the hell 😡 you are trying to kill us with boring games what Sony can give us better games on then this

  • I hope this is a joke…

  • good games … but only for a smartphone …

  • I need a break from COD MW and Cities Skylines looks like a good choice to do that. At least I don’t already own these two games. Almost every other month I already own the games so I get nothing so this is actually good for me.

  • fr_jack_hackett_

    Sony has done better over the last few months but honestly whoever approved these games, thinking people would be happy with them, should be disciplined..

  • Between the awful PlayStation plus and Playstation Now services I feel like a move to Xbox or PC is not far away. Try releasing a selection that people can choose from. Every month I either have the games or they are already on Playstation Now. Eurgh…

    So everyone is stuck at home and you give reality games about the great outdoors. Not very tasteful

  • valiant-prattle2

    I hope ps now may line-up is better than this

  • Não é possivel que esses caras da playstation não tenha pensando que eles estavam colocando dois lixos no mês de maio para os players
    isso daí não coloco nem na minha biblioteca muito menos jogar !! não faria o download disso nem no meu smartphone se tivesse.
    estou no aguardo do video no canal da playstation no youtube para deixar meu deslike.

  • So bad 😕

  • I get sony wont give a high end, brand new release game, but these games are an absolute joke! Farming Simulator… what ever avid gamer has always wanted! I honestly couldn’t think of anything worse! Theres so many better choices to stand out to the wider audience, Dark souls/ Dark souls 2, Shellshock live, pretty much any assassins creed game, tekken, any fallout game, any one of the full telltale games, soul caliber, theres so many better choices to replace this absolute abomination, and quite frankly it’s a bit of an insult!
