  • I wanted to try Dirt 5 but I wasn’t sure it was worth it, this solves my problem. Thanks. XD

  • Wow, I was going back and forth with persona strikers, when it was on sale. Glad I didn’t pull the trigger.

  • What a great way to start off the new year!

  • good month! Already own Dirt 5. Fun campaign and wild user-generated stuff. Works great on the PS5 controller too

  • Smh, not a fan of the recent ps plus games.

  • Definitely one of the better months in recent memory. I am glad to have digital versions of P5 Strikers and Dirt 5 as long as I maintain my subscription. It would be cool to slot four PS+ games a month; more genre offerings and more satiated subscribers.

  • I personally have been waiting for a long time to get deep rock galactic next step is sea of thieves!

  • Hey Sony, you should remake or remaster the Killzone trilogy and add online multiplayer, I loved those games on PS2 and PS3. Can’t play them on PS5 though

  • This is a good month…
    I played DEEP ROCK GALACTIC
    alot on Xbox.. The game is fantastic..
    The MP community was helpful & friendly.
    There wasn’t really any Toxic types because getting kicked from a game is easy/peasy…
    The game is a blast solo and you don’t need your friends to play….

    Dirt 5 isn’t what Dirt games used to be but i’ll try this one for myself since i now own it..
    Persona strikers will make alot of peeps happy..
    Deep Rock kinda sells it this month imo…

    • Hey really glad I found your comment cuz I was wondering if Deep Rock was good to play solo,the trailer gave a sort of co-op only vibe ya know.That’s good to know.

  • Nice i like that !

  • Cool! Thanks Sony! I’ve been wanting Dirt 5 and Persona 5 so this is by far for me the best PSN free game list in a long time.

  • Nice that’s a great month,I just saw the launch trailer for Deep Rock Galactic yesterday and was shocked cuz the game looks great and I’ve never heard of it before,just when I thought “another one to buy” y’all give on the lineup ha yay!! Glad it’s not that PS5 only bs too.

    Persona 5 is a perfect game for the lineup since it’s not worth a buy and Dirt 5 is a helluva offer let them racing games haters hate.

    Nice going Sony,cool way to start off the year.

  • Persona strikers

  • Omg I just started playing persona 5 and was about to buy strikers for the switch because I love it so much already!! Thank you so much Sony! 🙌🔥

  • Great month, but would need to be a great year worth of PS+ to goodwill the damage have done. Goodwill that will shatter with each exclusive you surrender to the competition. All this division because of decision making of a tool CEO who doesn’t even play games. The same trash who is responsible for Vita game publishers being BANNED from discounting THEIR OWN GAMES on the Vita’s own store.

  • I bought these games with my PS5 but I need dirt 5 oh and let’s be honest persona 5 strikers is the 2nd or 1st best game on that list though I don’t recommend on PS5 I think the game was for Nintendo switch

  • Hope some better games come out. Personally wouldn’t play any of these.

  • This line up is still good, NOT GREAT, but definitely good. And I say good because that’s 2 versions of 2 different games which I can appreciate…..despite the fact that Dirt 5 has so much DLC we need to purchase in order to 100% for us completionists. Though I’m glad we get both versions and the dlc is crossbuy.

    We are off to a good start just like in 2021 but you tend to start declining pretty soon. Try to keep varying the genres of the games you offer instead of giving 2 online MP only games or 2 hack and slashers or 2 shooters in one month….it really alienates the players who don’t fancy games from that genre. This way atleast more gamers will be happy every month for 1 or 2 of the offerings instead of big groups being unhappy because nothing of interest was offered to them. I still remember your line up of Cities Skylines and Farming Simulator 19…..it is to this day by far the worst 2 games you have put on Plus…..not even worth adding to the list for most people (I most certainly didn’t add them). What’s worse was that it happened at a time when PS3 & Vita support was over and PS5 wasn’t out. 2 simulation games…..really??

    By varying the line up and keeping it good AT MINIMUM, you build up more of a positive reputation. What people hate is you giving terrible games for 2 months then 1 month of great games and then back to bottom of the barrel crap again. Just a thought!

  • Awesome. 3 great games!
    Remember folks: These games each month are EXTRAS you get for paying for online multiplayer. The subscription isn’t just for the games. Y’all calm down lol. Just Add to Library if you want or don’t, then move on. No biggie.

    • The subscription is only for the games. This isn’t Xbox where you had to get a subscription for online. PS+ was a standalone service before they plainly added online to it, thereby making it mandatory for everyone who isn’t interested in PS+. Absolutely dirty business and it’s sad people don’t realize.

    • So if anything, the online is the extra that forces you to buy the whole package. Don’t try to spin this in a positive way.

    • Oh here we go… Why? Are you apologising on behalf of SCE? The subscription is a subscription, no “extras” are included.

    • The extras are trash then, it’s like ordering a meal and the chips are stale and the drink is flat, ruins the whole meal.

  • Dirt 5 would’ve enthused me but unfortunately that’s one of the PS5 games I can count on one hand that I already own. It already begins… No interest in the rest so another bad month for me.

  • Deep rock galactic gets listed on ps plus on it’s launch day 😶 just wow ,🥳 this is awesome, Big thanks Sony 🥰

  • Where are my games PlayStation 0-0

  • Ps plus Jan2022 games are still not available. Still showing me dec games.

  • Did anyone get ps plus Jan2022 games?

  • Very good. I like this list

  • I played P5 for free and have been debating on paying 60 bucks on P5S for months. Thankfully I’ve waited long enough playing Demon Souls.

  • Thanks
    Please inside the Street Of Rage 4 game in the list

  • Where is persona 5??????
    Its an insulation for us to not to add it in our ksa plus

  • I wouldn’t get too excited. Seems to me another month of bait and switch. Clearly they have a genius in the marketing department. Give what is essentially half a game with the other half locked behind a paywall. There are many adults on PS and I’m sure many more savvy people will realise exactly what you’re up to. The games included each month with PS+ are a big part of the subscription. These last two months the games have come with a large caveat (strings attached). Not impressed.

  • more junk games :(

  • Why was Nioh 2 deleted knowing that it was available in service PS NOW since July forever ( ongoing access )

  • I’m convinced that PS are only gonna release trash af games for their free ones now smdh

  • There are tons of games with legitimate trophies from the bronze to the platinum.
    They just want to beat your trophy score and say they’re better than you.

    Thanks for the games PlayStation! Awesome!

  • Any chance we get these game on PSPlus this year? :)
    – Assassin’s Creed Origins
    – A Plague Tale: Innocence
    – Terminator: Resistance
    – Ghost of Tsushima
    – Mafia: Definitive Edition

  • These Games are terrible, another month waste of purchaseing ps plus may just switch to xbox at this rate, like really giving away persona a second time …. wow…

  • Why the heck my store doesn’t include persona 5 in January games instead they gave us crappy games

  • Can’t wait to see what free games are in February

  • Great games

  • Today is 26 January
    The day sony company PlayStation
    Will release games for February 1st
    Lets go sony!
    Greatness awaits :)
