On December 30, Sony announced the lineup of free games for Hong Kong Service's January 2022 PlayStation Plus members, including "Deep Rock Galaxy", "Dust 5", "Persona 5 Chaos: Phantom Attacker".
These three games belong to first-person shooter, racing, and role-playing RPG games, except for Persona 5: Ghost in The Phantom Attack, which only has a PS4 version (PS5 can be backwards compatible), and the other two games have launched PS4 and PS5 versions.
PlayStation Plsu members in January free game lineup is very strong, but only three or a little less, and then look at Sony's competitor Microsoft, Xbox free game lineup is very large, this December free game has "Island Tycoon 5", "Escapers 2", "Orcs must die", "Crazy Twisted Shadow Planet" and so on.
Of course, there is better than nothing, Xbox Gold members can have so many free games, the reason is also not as competitive as Sony. Sony's biggest advantage is that there are more exclusive games, compared to Microsoft Xbox's exclusive games are too few, the domestic PS5 needs to add money of about 2000 yuan to buy, XSX needs to add money of about 1000 yuan, XSS does not need to add money at all, 2399 yuan can be obtained.
However, Sony's advantages in exclusive games are becoming less and less obvious, on the one hand, game manufacturers have seen the consumption potential of PC users, many new PC, PS platform synchronous landing, such as "Cyberpunk 2077", the first day of sale successfully returned to the cost, of which the PC share is close to 60%, and more and more manufacturers will land on PC and PS at the same time.
On the other hand, in order to make money, Sony has put some first-party PS exclusive games on the PC platform, although these games have been sold on the PS platform for more than a year, but many PS users are dissatisfied with this, believing that their PS consoles have lost money.
Now Sony's member free games are more and more sincere, because in recent years the console game industry has been affected by mobile games and PC games, look at the Epic platform, recently today every day in the free game delivery.
It is estimated that sony will have more and more free games for members in the future, and there will be more and more free boutique games. The three free games in January can be played from January 4 to January 31, a bit of a pity, new year's day three days off can not play.
