Enough about June, though – it’s old news! Here’s what PlayStation has to say about July 2022. Here’s what PlayStation has to say about each of this month’s free games: 

Crash Bandicoot: It’s About Time (PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4)

“An all-new Crash adventure awaits! N. Tropy and Dr. Neo Cortex are back and launching an assault not only on this universe but all of it. Four powerful space-time guardians give Coco and Crash the ability to change the laws of reality and overcome dangerous obstacles in new and exciting ways. And you’ll not only play as the wumping, jumping, marsupial duo: experience things from different perspectives with the one and only Dr. Neo Cortex. Play as Crash, Coco, Tawna, Dingodile, or Dr. Neo Cortex and battle bosses such as N. Gin, Louise, Nitrus Brio, and Nefarious Tropy.”

The Dark Pictures Anthology – Man of Medan (PlayStation 4).

“In this branching, cinematic horror game from the creator of Until Dawn and The Quarry, five friends set sail on a holiday diving trip that soon changes into something much more sinister. You can make the decisions that will determine their fate. All characters are able to live and die. Experience your terrifying story alone, with a friend online* or go for safety in numbers with up to five players offline.”

Arcadegeddon (PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4)

“Gilly, the owner of a local arcade, is trying to save his business from a faceless mega-corporation, Fun Fun Co. …and what better way to stick it to the man than with a brand-spanking-new super game. Unfortunately, the corp gets wind of Gilly’s plan and launches a cyberattack, injecting a virus into the game. Now it’s up to you to rise up and save both the game and the last remaining local arcade in this ever-evolving co-op multiplayer shooter. Offering a mix of PvE and PvP gameplay, you and up to 3 friends online* to explore multiple biomes, compete in mini games, find hidden chests, and battle a crazy cast of enemies and bosses.”

While waiting for these games to go live, be sure to download last month’s games – God of War, Naruto to Boruto: Shinobi Striker, and Nickelodeon All-Star Brawl – and then read about the revamped PlayStation Plus subscription service to find out which new tier is right for you.
