Next months PlayStation Plus free games are reportedly Shadow of the Colossus and Sonic Forces, according to an ad on Polish site GRYOnline.pl.
A user on gaming forum Resetera and another on the PlayStation Plus Subreddit both captured a snapshot of the banner, upping the likelihood of the two titles landing on PS Plus next month. It appears the advertisement hit the site ahead of an official announcement on PlayStation.Blog as is customary.
Adding credibility to the leak is the appearance of this months trio of free titles The Sims 4, Bioshock: The Collection, and Firewall Zero Hour on the banner.
If the leak is genuine, Marchs PlayStation Plus freebies are among the more lopsided selections weve seen to date. Bluepoint Games Shadow of the Colossus isnt so much a remaster of the PS2 classic as a ground-up remake. Fresh assets and a new control scheme add to the already fantastic foundations of the original.
Critically acclaimed and prized among fans, it is a must-play for anyone that owns a PlayStation 4 and features proudly in countless Best PS4 Games lists that pepper the internet.
Accompanying Shadow of the Colossus is Sonic Force. Finding a suitable game to accompany Shadow of the Colossus would be no small feat at the best of times. But it seems like PlayStation just gave up and picked any old game ripe for a stint as a PS Plus freebie when throwing in Sonic Forces.
With a Metacritic score of 57, SEGAs latest Sonic game is mediocre at best. Heres my colleague Max Moellers take on the game;
Sonic Forces was a boring release that failed to represent any of the exciting mechanics from the hedgehogs past. The levels are full of tired quick-time actions, strange gimmicks that break momentum, and unrefined set pieces that slog the game along.
Its worth noting that we still need official confirmation from PlayStation that these are indeed Marchs PlayStation Plus games. Nevertheless, based on previous leaks, we can be reasonably sure well be playing Shadow of the Colossus and Sonic Forces next month.
