PlayStation Plus December 2021 free games announced

PlayStation Plus subscribers get Godfall: Challenger Edition, Mortal Shell, and — in a program first — Lego DC Super-Villains Next week. Free Lego games had, to this point, been the exclusive domain of Xbox Live’s Games With Gold.

Lego DC Super-VillainsThe PlayStation 4 version of the game was launched October 2018 Though Games With Gold has offered seven Lego games to subscribers over its nine years — most recently this month, with Lego Batman 2 DC Super Heroes — it’s the first time any of TT Games’ licensed Lego platformers have graced PlayStation Plus.

As for the rest, there’s Godfall — remember that? Counterplay Games and Gearbox Publishing’s quickly forgotten PS5 launch title is a loot/hack-n-slash action RPG available for both PlayStation 4 and PlayStation 5. (The PS4 version debuted in August. The PS Plus release is known as Godfall: Challenger Edition, which is described by Sony’s PlayStation Blog thusly:

The Challenger Edition is focused on three distinct modes: Lightbringer and Dreamstones. All three are endgame-level content, but you’ll be immediately equipped with a spread of deadly weapons and skill points, letting you team up with up to two other players in co-op. Get the best build possible and crush your opponents. Challenger Edition’s endgame co-op is compatible with all upgraded editions of Godfall & supports cross-gen play.

Finally, there’s Mortal Shell, which we described as a “soulslike game for people who don’t have the time.” It’s a completely linear action-RPG (that means no side quests), but “in such a small package that it all feels distilled and more potent,” as our Polygon Recommends review puts it.

From December 7, to January 3, all of these games can be accessed. November’s free games — Knockout CityThe First Class Trouble Re-Reckoning Kingdoms Of Amalur — are still available until Dec. 6. Further, PlayStation VR owners can pick up Firesprite’s The Persistence, The Walking Dead: Saints & SinnersPlease see the following: Until You FallThrough Jan. 3, 2022
