PlayStation Plus in December: Resogun, Guacamelee, GRID 2, more

Hi everyone! It’s a very exciting time here at PlayStation as we edge ever closer to the launch of PS4. As promised, PlayStation Plus will be with you from day one, ushering you into the next generation of console gaming with two incredible launch titles and access to immersive online multiplayer.

PlayStation 4 games:
First up, we are very pleased to welcome RESOGUN to the Instant Game Collection. As the spiritual successor to Super Stardust, RESOGUN is a side scrolling shoot-em-up with a unique and distinctive art style that really showcases the power of PS4. It also takes advantage of multiplayer functionality to fully utilise the PS4’s online features to create amazing social experiences.

Next up from our friends at Compulsion Games comes stylish platformer Contrast. Taking on the role of Dawn, the imaginary friend of a little girl, Didi, you have the power to shift from the 3D world into a 2D shadowscape.

Didi’s family isn’t perfect – her mother is a cabaret singer focused on her career, and her father isn’t around anymore. As her imaginary best friend, you must use your shadow-shifting abilities to solve complex puzzles and help Didi investigate the secrets that lie behind her troubled family.

And don’t forget, a PlayStation Plus membership will also provide you with access to PS4 online multiplayer.

PlayStation 3 games:
Buckle up – your first PS3 title is Codemasters adrenaline-fuelled racer GRID 2. Whether you’re competing online or solo, GRID 2 offers a fantastic blend of arcade and simulation racing. This is a game that wants you to experience the thrill of street racing combined with terrific handling, gorgeous environments, and a broad selection of event types.

Next up is Drinkbox Studios‘ acclaimed Cross Buy platformer Guacamelee! Inspired by traditional Mexican culture and folklore, the game builds upon a classic open-world Metroidvania structure by adding a strong melee combat component, a dimension switching mechanic, and co-operative same-screen multiplayer.

PS Vita games:
First up, join Sonic and friends in the highly addictive Sonic and All-Stars Racing Transformed. Compete across land, water and air in incredible transforming vehicles that change from cars to boats to planes mid-race. Master your driving skills as you drift, barrel roll and boost to overtake your rivals, or use your weapons tactically and unleash your All-Star move to gain the winning advantage.

Last but certainly not least, I’m very excited to announce that you’ll be able to download Grand Theft Auto Liberty City Stories from 27th November. Take on the role of Toni in the troubled Liberty City, where warring mafia groups are ruling the streets through organised crime and political corruption. No one can be trusted and it’s up to you to clean up!

In addition to the great games mentioned above, PS Plus members will also have access to a range of big discounts this month. Keep checking PlayStation Blog for regular updates on new savings.

But that’s not all; PlayStation Plus members now get access to the TuneIn app for free by simply visiting PlayStation Store and hitting the download button! TuneIn is the world’s most popular service for listening to live, online radio. With over 70,000 AM, FM and internet radio stations. Non PS Plus members can take advantage of Cross Buy benefits when they purchase the application on either PS Vita or PS3.
