The PS Plus Premium Games for August 2022 Forget Their Top Billing

gamerant.com:

While the tiers themselves are a little confusing at first glance, Sony's reveal and release pattern for PS Plus' Essential, Extra, and Premium Tiers are pretty clear. The reveal of each comes less than a week before their release, and players will get the Essential tier games at the start of the month and Extra and Premium at the end of it. This means fans can already claim the PS Plus free/Essential tier games for August 2022, which include Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 1+2 Cross-Gen Deluxe Bundle, Yakuza: Like a Dragon, and Little Nightmares.

On August 16, Sony will release the PS Plus Extra and Premium games for August 2022, which currently come in at 12 total games. It should be noted that July's offering included a surprise game, not revealed until its inclusion, and it's possible that happens again. It would likely only be one game though. The problem here, though, is that was supplemental, and the releases for July in this department were solid on their own. The PS Plus Extra and Premium games, however, seem to be forgetting something.

The Best Games on PS Plus Extra and Premium (August 2022)

It should be noted that this selection of PS Plus games is solid. It includes three Yakuza games (0, Kiwami, andKiwami 2), Ghost Recon Wildlands, and Metro Exodus, all of which are big games fans can spend tons of time in. It's joined by the beloved multiplayer game Dead by Daylight and the cutesyBugsnax, while Everspace is perhaps a smaller game some fans could dive into as well. The same goes for Trials of Mana, and there are a few minor, card/party games that join for a little extra oomph: Uno, Monopoly Madness, and Monopoly Plus. However, the longer someone looks at this list, the more obvious it is something is missing.
