PlayStation Plus Essential July Games Line-up Leaked
July’s PlayStation Plus Essential games line-up has leaked online by way of the regularly reliable Dealabs user billbil-kun.
According to billbil-kun, July’s line-up includes Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War, Alan Wake Remastered, and Endling: Extinction Is Forever and will go live July 2.
Call of Duty Black Ops Cold War is the 2020 first-person shooter developed primarily by Treyarch and Raven. IGN’s review returned a 7/10, saying “Cold War's quiet times are more memorable than the loud ones, even if the story’s ambition outweighs its execution”.
The timing of Call of Duty Black Ops Cold War’s inclusion in PlayStation Plus is interesting given the focus on Call of Duty’s exclusivity amid the FTC’s ongoing battle to block Microsoft from buying Activision Blizzard.
Alan Wake Remastered is of course the latest version of Remedy’s much-loved thriller. In IGN’s 7/10 review, we called it “a fairly inessential upgrade for existing fans, but this moody mystery is still well worth a look for newcomers”.
And finally, Endling: Extinction is Forever is a 2022 indie survival adventure game developed by Spanish studio Herobeat Studios.
Meanwhile, Sony has revealed 10 games set to leave PlayStation Plus Extra and Premium mid-July. As revealed by Eurogamer, the games are:
Expect an announcement from Sony soon.
