Sony Interactive Entertainment has officially announced the first of January 2023’s PlayStation Plus games.
Confirming a recent leak, January’s PlayStation Plus Essential titles will be Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order (PS5/PS4), Fallout 76 (PS4) and Axiom Verge 2 (PS5/PS4).
The three games will be available to claim from January 3 until February 7.
Essential is the entry-level PlayStation Plus membership tier, which offers subscribers access to a few ‘free’ games every month.
Players can continue to play these games even after they’re no longer available to claim at the end of the monthly period as long as they continue to subscribe to PlayStation Plus Essential (or a higher tier).
Once their membership ends, they’ll no longer be able to play these games unless they resubscribe.
December’s PlayStation Plus Essential games are still available to claim until January 2. They are Mass Effect Legendary Edition (PS4), Biomutant (PS5/PS4) and Divine Knockout: Founder’s Edition (PS5/PS4).
January’s Game Catalog line-up for PlayStation Plus Extra and Premium members will be announced “soon”, according to Sony.
This month’s PlayStation Plus Game Catalog and Classics titles include WWE 2K22, several Far Cry and Yakuza games, Middle Earth: Shadow of Mordor and Middle-Earth: Shadow of War, Ridge Racer 2, Heavenly Sword, Oddworld: Abe’s Exoddus and Pinball Heroes.
PlayStation Store is currently running its January Sale, featuring savings of up to 75% on games and DLC, according to Sony.
Over 3,000 products have been discounted including Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2, FIFA 23, Elden Ring, Horizon Forbidden West and Gotham Knights.
