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
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
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.
No thanks.
I’m aware that there will be some people that think “Oh great, these are two games that I will get so much time out of” that’s great for those people! There will always be a month that you won’t like and that is life but Sony must know that these kinds of games will gain a largely negative review from users.
It’s not about having new games and comparing it to other consoles. Saying “Well Xbox gets …. and PC get…… so why do we have this”. Its about what games Sony think will get more people to purchase this service. Who? Even if you loved both these games, who is going to look at the store and say “Yes, this is worth me purchasing this membership”.
Just seems like you can’t justify it, no matter which way you look at it other than for monetary gain for Sony by not having to give out a widely popular game. I mean farming simulator? Really?
Ohh…. no so good. Well last month was great
Why?!… What did we do to deserve this? 😤😢😔
El farming lleva tiempo en ps now. El otro lo desconozco pero no me interesa tampoco. Para ser 2 juegos los que “dan” ahora, deberían esmerarse más. Aparte que el servicio no es barato y la verdad, esos juegos valen callampa. Se cagaron a todos los que querían dark souls remastered 😝
Guess I’m waiting another month to resubscribe to PS+
Awful just awful
Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm 🤔 No thanks
Pathetic. Beyond pathetic. Infuriating.
Oof. I guess they all came be winners… Yikes
Farming simulator really? Sony? That’s again some game that we got on some platform on PC before and then we got on PS+.
Very bad Sony.
You are joking, right… Sony? Seriously, I feel like we’re all being trolled. What a horrible lineup. What the hell, seriously?
We actually were waiting for dying light and dark souls remaster WTF is farming sim or city skyline
This is why I am not continuing my PSplus. $60 for garbage. I will be making the jump back to Microsoft Next gen. Every thing about Sony has gotten cheap
UNBELIEVABLE!
REALLY… not even a f….ingk pandemics will make you guys “open your hearts” a bit? What about Dying Light + Dark Souls Remastered?
Oh, man… this is a TERRIBLE set. Don’t even say anything about last month, offering the exclusives is never nice for subscribers, because MOST of PS4 owners buy these games anyways.
Uou guys are step by step guiding some of your fans to XBOX or PC… I am a PSX guy ever since PS One and I’m really, really considering going to the other side now. Games are ALWAYS CHEAPER, they have better “freebies” and now they are going to have a better overall experience. Your exclusives are good, but not THAT GOOD, mind you!
I honestly don’t know what to say lol
I just thought I’d give Playstation Plus a 2nd chance after a year’s break…
:/
Cities: Skylines caught my interest awhile ago, so looking forward to this… but Farming Simulator? Something that’s constantly on sale at 75%+ off? Nah, that one hurts :(
Boring games, nothing for me!
Is it serious???
What a pile of horse manure! This is the worst selection I’ve seen in a long time! At a time like this, you’d think you would give us something to get the time in. I dare say there won’t be too many loyal playstation plus subscribers downloading this crap! Remind us what we’re actually paying for!!
This has to be some sick joke. Everyone is at home and PlayStation provides these ‘free’ games where you get to watch grass grow and then cut it.
Glad I’m letting my PS Plus subscription expire.
Man, what the….
Seriously, Sony?????
Out of the million PS plus subscribers only the 34 people that liled this post are into Sim games. Please do the right thing and change Farming Simulator to a good indie game or old AAA game. This will not go down well during a pandemic.
Nice change of pace. Appreciate the choice here.
I feel cheated, because these games are on PlayStation now. Also 2 sim games at the same time seems crap.
These are the worse choice’s for ps+. Can’t we get anything better then this ****.
Really Playstation why would you put 2 games of the same genre together. These only appeal to a certain demographic. Now with only 2 games a month this is insulting. Please reconsider .
LMAO Sony trolling. They preparing us for the future after this virus wipes most of us out
We’re all stuck at home with nothing to do and this is the best you can do? What a joke. Give us something decent at least. I’m not even adding these to my library what a waste.
It appears many are disappointed. I am happy the leak of Dark Souls and Dying Light was wrong as i have those titles already. I’m interested in this selection as I’ve not delved into either type of game yet. I wanted to try Cities Skyline which has a decent meta rating. The only farming I did was with Starter Valley. Both games are fitting for Stay at Home.
How do we go from last months great games to two very uninteresting titles? I will not even download these, it’s not very exciting. :(
I demand a change. Change these two titles and put the leaks one instead. This line up is so bad that it didn’t beat Xbox gold month or any google stadia games.
Considering both of these games are free on PSNow, I’m currently paying what, $60+ for the same games over and over again? Especially after they gave us the Sims a couple months ago, which might as well be both of these games combined. This is a bummer. I really hope they don’t think the people who use PsPlus are looking forward to games like these that they can play just as easily on their mobile devices. Such a shame.
What a **** joke…
Sony, these are not games your community is going to be happy with. They’re both slow paced & kind of the same game. Please drop one (farming sim preferably) and add something with a faster pace.
I don’t normally complain about these, but what the Dickens?
Two building sims? Where’s the variety?
This is so disappointing. 2 simulation games in the same month? I hope you guys learned a lesson whe you replaced PES with Detroit. That was smart and cool.
Terrible lineup…congrats on phoning it in.
this is just sad
great, I can die of a virus AND boredom. nice combo.
I seen this lineup on a different site and it made me laugh, I thought it was a joke and then found out its real…. I’m sad… atleast it won’t add to my back log.
Are you kidding me
Lol garbage.
I echo the same sentiment of many of you. 2 building simulators is a rather strange move. Cities Skylines is so much fun but not enough to start playing on PS4 when it is cheaper, better and moddable on PC farming personally opinion we got sims 4 only a few months ago replace cities skylines with something like just cause 4, revenant, or even the castlevania collection.
I’ve had ps plus since ps3 and I’ve never complained about free games but LMAO i honestly thought this wasn’t real
This is a joke …..noone but tweens wanna play those games your messing up real bad those games are for kids or lonely adults who have no real life. im switching to x box till your company stops acting like children
I don’t want to sound like i’m an ungrateful person but this month games are sooooo niche that nobody want them
Probably the worst month ever…
Maybe some will find these 2 games interesting but most of us will not…
We expect more in June…
I just want to say, that I am more excited for the games this month than I have been for a while. Both of these games are games I’ve considered buying, but never did. I am delighted that I will get a chance to try them. While they many not be the kind of games the vocal majority would want to play, there are definitely people out there who will play them. Thanks Sony!
The Russians have invaded the blog, selling discord with their preposterous claims. Thank You, Sony? Really? For these two POS games?
Surely, comrade, vodka HAS POISON TO YOUR BRAIN. 😷
