Dragon’s Dogma: Dark Arisen leads the pack of new titles coming to the PlayStation Plus Extra and Deluxe/Premium game catalog this month. Starting November 21, all senior PS Plus members can embark on an epic dark fantasy adventure as the Arisen, whose heart is ripped out by a dragon early on, marking him as a warrior destined to face the mythical creature and unravel answers to a sinister conspiracy. The combat is very reminiscent of the Dark Souls games, even though you have a team of AI companions to assist you in tight situations. Play with magic, ride atop griffins, slice off Hydra heads and more when Dragon’s Dogma: Dark Arisen comes to PS4.
Teardown, which launched on consoles on November 15, is coming as a Day 1 release and is also making its way to the PS Plus catalogue. With our company’s debt increasing astronomically, we are forced to take jobs from shady people, only to be consumed by rebellious nature as we plan the perfect heist in a sandbox world. Drive into walls, explode gigantic structures or stack objects to create the ideal path to your goal, and take part in an elaborate heist to reap your customers’ rewards – all without getting caught. Teardown is now available on PS5.
If you’ve found time to play Dead Island from last month’s PS Plus collection, you can start the sequel Riptide, which serves as a direct continuation that pits our four immune protagonists against a new group of bloodthirsty zombies. Crack open undead skulls, slice up appendages and torch hordes on a brand new island with up to three people in online co-op. Dead Island: Riptide Definitive Edition will be available on PS4.
Puzzle game fans can try Superliminal on PS4 and PS5. In this surreal title from Pillow Castle Games, you play as a volunteer for an experimental dream therapy program that throws a series of optical illusions your way. Through it all, your only form of guidance is Dr.’s voice. Glenn Pierce, who helps players break out of the layers through basic instructions like object manipulation and switching camera angles to see puzzles in a new light – like switching from 2D to 3D shapes to better understand the solution. The first person perspective only adds to the claustrophobia. Meanwhile, mech heads can choose from over 180 high-quality metal armor suits and engage in 2v2 online battles with others in Mobile Suit Gundam: Extreme vs. Maxi Boost On.
As shown above, there aren’t many popular releases this month, prompting PlayStation fans to once again raise concerns about the value of a PS Plus subscription, especially after Sony raised the prices of its 12-month subscriptions earlier this year. The company launched 4K cloud streaming in October, but that’s only available to PS Plus Premium members, also only in certain regions. Short-term memberships are expensive in the long run, which is why several fans have expressed their disappointment in recent months by canceling PS Plus subscriptions. For what it’s worth, new 12-month PS Plus memberships are now available at 30 percent off, thanks to PlayStation’s Black Friday sale.
As usual, the November games catalog was revealed on the PlayStation Blog and will be available exclusively to PS Plus Extra and Deluxe members. Last month’s catalog included Gotham Knights, Disco Elysium and Alien Isolation, to name a few.
Here’s the full list of free games available to PlayStation Plus Extra and Deluxe/Premium subscribers from November 21st.
