Just In Time For The Holidays, PlayStation Plus Gets Sonic, Star Wars, And Jurassic World Games

This month Sony is adding a recent Sonic game, Jurassic World Evolution 2, the divisive Forspoken, and a Star Wars VR experience to its large PlayStation Plus Game Catalog. All these games arrive just in time for being stuck indoors due to snow and family gatherings.

On December 11, PlayStation officially announced the next round of PS Plus Extra and Premium games that will be added to the service’s game catalog. These new games will be available starting on December 17.

Sony previously revealed in November that some PS2 classics, including Sly 2 and Sly 3, would be added to PS Plus this month, and we’ve included those titles (as well as the free monthly games) in this list.

Sonic the Hedgehog 3 is headed to theaters this Christmas, so it’s only fitting that one of his latest games, 2022's Sonic Frontiers, is arriving on PS Plus this month. Frontiers is nothing like the new movies or classic 2D games from the franchise’s past. Instead, it’s a lonely mess of a game that looks and feels a lot like Death Stranding. It’s an odd one for sure, but strangely compelling, too.

Anyway, here’s the full list of games being added to PS Plus and its various tiers next week:

PlayStation Plus Extra and Premium

• Sonic Frontiers | PS4, PS5
• Forspoken | PS5
• Rabbids: Party of Legends| PS4
• WRC Generations | PS4, PS5
• F.I.S.T.: Forged In Shadow Torch | PS4, PS5
• Jurassic World Evolution 2 | PS4, PS5

And, as announced last month, these are the three games available to all PS Plus subscribers to download until January 6:

Remember, to access, download, and play these games you’ll need to be an active PS Plus Extra or Premium tier subscriber. And if your subscription runs out in the future, you’ll no longer be able to play these games.
