Yesterday, Sony rolled out the much-anticipated PS Plus lineup for December 2024, celebrating PlayStation’s 30th anniversary. However, gamers feel it misses the mark, failing to match the celebratory hype. Among the Essential games is a familiar face—It Takes Two, which exited the PS Plus Extra catalog earlier this year, meaning many subscribers have already had their fill.
There’s quite a buzz among fans who believe that PlayStation could have stepped up its game for the big 3-0. The titles for the upcoming month include It Takes Two, Aliens: Dark Descent, and Temtem, as announced yesterday. While players aren’t exactly trashing these games, there’s a shared sentiment that the selections don’t quite live up to what such a milestone occasion deserves.
Perusing through the PS Blog, gaming forums, and social media, you can’t miss the disappointed tone. “This feels like the most corporate and dispassionate gesture for an anniversary I’ve ever seen,” one user commented. Another chimed in, saying, “This is the first time I’m compelled to comment, just to say how lackluster this is.” Yet another subscriber added, “I usually keep my complaints to myself, but this is downright terrible.”
Though the full list of PS Plus Extra and Premium games for December 2024 is still under wraps, Premium subscribers have been assured of three cherished classic games and a taste of a game trial.
