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.

  • Lately I find myself not expecting anything and YET I am disappointed everytime.

  • These games are fun ON PC, but City: Skylines, in particular, is still SO BARE BONES compared to the PC version. I really wish they had some kind of in-house modding system like in Skyrim: Enhanced Edition or Fallout 4.

  • Garbage! I can’t even say anything else.

  • good games, just to be playing simulators for a long time thanks SONY !

  • Whoever came up with this idea needs fired

  • I’m sure there are some that will be happy for these two games, but with both being simulation type games. Neither seem that interesting to me. Better luck next month on picking games that people will like.

  • Please say sike!!

    Seriously, though, I like sim games, and I’m excited to check out Cities: Skylines, but even I don’t want two sims in one month. I like having two different types of games to check out. Last few months have been great. Please Sony, swap out Farming Simulator for another title before next Tuesday.

    Thanks for reading this, and stay safe, Sony staff!

    • I agree, two sim games is a bit much. We need choice, please change “Farming Simulator” to a game most people actually want to play, thanks.

  • It’s not too late to be an April Fool’s joke.
    I’m sure Sony knows how weak this month is but it’s probably making up for the two extra free games during Covid, or it’s setting up for a stronger next month.
    I feel like Sony has proven to be very reliable with these games overall, so let’s not forget that.

  • The only thing that makes sense here is that whoever leaked the other two titles was actually correct, and now Sony feels like they have to **** with us to make us think that’s not what we’re getting.

    Can’t wait to play Dark Souls, I have never had the opportunity… Very excited! Great month Sony.

  • I’m looking forward to playing both of these. I’m sure it will be more fun than listening to the self-entitled babies whining about it here.

    • good GAWD man! I will try to say this as calmly and politely as I can in behalf of everyone here: SFTU

  • This is a poor selection simply because both games are simulator games. Who seriously thought this would make the community happy? Variety Sony, variety.

  • You have to understand unless you like every game on PlayStation, you are going to have months with games you probably won’t like. Best thing to do is look at the last year of PS Plus and compare the number you liked, to the number you didn’t. As long as there was more you liked then not, then overall you are still doing good…

  • Honestly, Farming Simulator 19 is pretty decent. Believe me or not… I bought 17 on sale and ended up buying 19 too. It’s good for something different and it’s actually kinda relaxing.

  • did all the PS plus free games available for PS3? if yes, can I have Minecraft please……I accidentally buy a different region for my PS3 edition. I have buy a skin pack and texture pack, but I cant use it…
    no one told me there’s a different region to buy a games..
    If you read this..please give me a Asia region, I couldn’t find any on any game shop even online. Thanks.

  • Hey, why can’t I find my earlier comments here did you remove them? All I said was that a niche genre like sim is not for everyone, especially two sim games which only a handful of PS plus paid subscribers are satisfied with.

    Please change Farming Simulator to a good indie game like “Hollow Knight” or “Inside” by PlayDead for example. This is unacceptable, even the actual stay at home free games are better and people paying for PS plus deserve much better.

  • Bad! At least I won’t have to renew my subscription, will wait for June’s free games

  • Dire. Thanks for giving us PS Now games that are both slow paced Sims. Something that’s not completely passive would have been nice. Even just one of those games could have been different and people wouldn’t have reacted like this, and to be honest I’d rather have ProEvo 19. At least I could have some fun playing against friends.

  • Absolute GARBAGE… Sony what are you thinking This trash is already on PSN Now Because nobody plays it

  • This is a joke?

  • I am hoping this is just a bad dream

  • W T F….
    are you kidding?
    hhmmm Please Change… 70% Dislike for this game

  • Well I was going to reup my PS+ with the sale but this pissed me off and now I’m not sure I want to give Sony my money.

  • Wow, two jobs about working while I’m laid off due to COVID-19.
    This has got to be somebody’s idea of a joke.

  • Cara agora posso fazer meu sonho de fazer uma plantação de alface,como eu sonhei pra tá vivo nesse dia tão maravilhoso.

  • Is it a joke Sony? Considering the situation of quarantine and people waiting for May games you give that?? I am truly disappointed in sony. Thanks

  • Decepcionar a tantos usuarios es algo a considerar.

  • To be honest PlayStation… these are poor choices.. and you know that… now wether or not you have chosen these originally or brought them out as a switch to replace the “leak” games that may or may not of been true. (No pun intended) I feel your not doing right by your loyal fans, me included, of games we deserve since we invest into your subscriptions sometimes almost religiously.. just saying PlayStation.. just saying..

  • Both games are already included in the PS now collection. Very disappointed and will not be renewing my PS now subscription.

  • Vocês não tem vergonha não?
    Dá esse jogos de bosta pra nós que somos assinantes …
    Que isso …. Vocês estão de parabéns esse mês para essa porcaria de jogos que não presta pra nada … Parece até jogos de celular aliás tem jogos melhores que esse pra celular …
    Mano isso é uma vergonha sério msm em plena quarentena com esses jogos ridículos aí ninguém aguenta vocês estavam de parabéns no mês passado agora olha a merda que vcs fizeram …. Isso é de perder credibilidade de nós jogadores e fã da PlayStation

  • Não vejo consideração conosco em plena essa crise que isso……
    Caramba velho decepcionado estou

  • Quem em São consciência vai baixar isso aí?
    Só para criança e olhe lá até porque é complexo demais para uma criança jogar….
    É como se maio nem existisse
    É sempre assim um mês bom em um mês horrível mais uma vez que vergonha decepcionado estou

  • Quem em São consciência vai baixar isso aí?

  • distasteful

  • Come on Sony team… Please change one of the title to something better… 2 simulator games? Typically is one sim and one adventure… Please change one… It’s an humble request from the gaming community

  • What a load of bull 🙄

  • Yeah. You can keep those. And I ‘ll certainly be keeping my money by not renewing my subscription. Congrats.

  • Oww… Wow… I can’t wait NOT to play it. Another worse ps+ game. Great job playstation

  • Cmon what is this sony worst lineup i ever seen 2 simulators, you can do better than this.

  • OMG these comments are killers dwl. But as what most ppl say this month really sucks. I don’t every complain even if I have both games cause their good games for ppl who don’t have it. But this month is farming life or city life. If even one is fine but both. Jesus dwl. Don’t even wanna download it to my collection.

  • Sony is really gonna do us like this? Trash.

  • Absolute garbage. So poor making loads of extra money whilst people stuck indoors and you offer 2 Sims wow

  • I am very disappointed to see such similar games released in the same month. If you don’t like Sim games, then there is nothing for you this month. Seems like a strange oversight when PS must be seeing the largest number of concurrent players with so many people staying inside due to the pandemic.

    Why you would not just take the cheaper older game earmarked for next week and swap it for this one and release one Sim game each month is beyond me.

  • Needed more variety Sony! We’re starving for good entertainment!

  • Real 2020 vibe with these game choices. As in…this sucks and I can’t wait until this is over.

  • Wow…look at how many whiners have posted on this blog. I don’t own either of these games; thus, I’m pretty happy with these offerings. 👍

  • I almost bought these im glad i waited a few days later i like simulator games always have i have farming simulator 15 17 and now gonna have 19 i used to play sim city all the time on the computer so it should b fun on console well see

  • i agree this months selection is mediocre at best–take two games simulators and say hey these are free next month –i been thinking about buying jurassic park on ps4 just to try a sim game but then they give these games free–games that have you building things–where most gamers want to shot and destroy things –i will add these to my library just because they are free—but sonys going to have to do better==

    as for someones comment horizon zero dawn coming to pc–so what update 7.5 bricking consoles–it happens –an update bricked a xbox one x after owning it for about 40 days so it happens get over it

  • what i wish would happen is–pay for ps plus per month or year–and you get to download and play all games except the big sellers—that way can play games like life is strange games and the hasbro games which would have more peoeple playing those type games if offered differently-i bought them but never get to play against anyone online like battleship and trivia pursuit–

    another thing is rent games 2 bucks a day 5 bucks a week then if like the game you get the game for regular price minus the rental fees–

    downloading games should be cheaper to buy–59.99 should be 49.99—they arent supplying the case or disc–so why we having to pay for them–

    but if sony would jump in and rent games like this–they would make more money–plus the companies would get more sales–try it out for a year–if dont work out to sonys advantage–do like did playstion vue–and delete it–cancel it– sure give discounts on games like do now–but do away with the free games– and start renting them entire library as i said except for huge games like call of duty modern warfare games ff7 resident evil games–ora 60 dollar game 3 bucks a night but games like 14 bucks is a dollar to rent per night

    that way ps plus subscribers would get more for their money plus sales would go up–say i can download life is strange 2 play it a while say wow i love this game–then i am going to buy it–not sit here wonder if i am going to like it or not and dont buy it at all

  • Damn man, last month I already owned both games so even though it was a pretty solid month I didn’t “get anything” from it. And now this month (which is my birthday month) I already have Cities Skylines on PC and have no interest in Farming sim.

    Plus The Last of Us part II got delayed. (That was going to be my bday present.) 😑 Fml. Well at least I have Hunt: Showdown.

  • I really thought you guys were going to hook it up during quarantine:/ what a disappointment
