PlayStation Plus: February’s Free Games

This is a pretty awesome month for PlayStation Plus members with a variety of quality titles across PlayStation platforms entering the service.

On PlayStation 4 you’ll receive one of the coolest games from last year – the critically acclaimed strategy/action RPG Transistor. PS4 owners will also get Apotheon, an action platformer set in Greek mythology, the day it releases on PlayStation Store. PlayStation 3 owners can explore the ins and outs of Tokyo with Yakuza 4 or sneak about The City stealing what you can in Thief. PlayStation Vita owners can see how many generations of champions it takes to beat the quirky Rogue Legacy and jump around as a little boy with a big gun (not so much for shooting enemies as it is launching you around) in Kick & Fennick, which is also releasing day and date in PlayStation Plus.

All of these games will be free for Plus members starting February 3rd. If you want to see these titles in action, check out the video below. When you watch, you may notice that the voice over has changed a bit, and my friend Ryan Clements is narrating instead of me. He’ll be handling the Plus communications from now on, including this post in the future, so thank you guys for all the support over the past couple years!

  • ROGUE LEGACY! Makes the entire month worth it

  • Rogue Legacy for me!!! Definitely best game on the list.

  • Another good month lineup I think. Been looking at Yakuza 4 for awhile but always pretty expensive. Have Thief for PS4, but might play on PS3 sometime to double dip the trophies lol. Transistor is a good game that i started playing a couple of months ago and Apotheon looks interesting. My backlog for PS3 and PS4 continues to grow.

  • Really? The PS3 version of Thief? You should never give the inferior version of a cross gen game, unless you also give the ps4 version. I know I won’t play the ps3 version and wait for the ps4 to become free (or at least heavily discounted).

  • Dang it! I brought Transistor months ago,aha! Apotheon looks cool. I’ll check that out.

  • Apotheon looks very interesting.

  • Crap games for PS4. Damn.

  • Everytime I see that game’s name, I thought it’s Rogue Galaxy.

    please remaster it for PS4/Vita.

  • Great month, thanks!

  • Transistor and Rogue Legacy are both solid games. Good to see more people getting to try them. Looking forward to trying Apotheon.

  • I can’t wait to finally check out Transistor! I plan on playing Bastion when I get my PC so Transistor is going to be a nice kind of sampling of what to expect. PS4 offerings are solid!

  • Thief for PS3, but not for PS4?!?!?! Don’t have a PS3 anymore. No love for PS4 owners….lame……

  • The PS4 line up is excellent; the PS Vita is Ok – it is how it has generally been. As far as the PS3 line up goes, I too hate the fact that only PS3 version of the thief is part of PS+.

    I can see the thinking though – the PS4 version can be given out at a later point of this year making it a AAA (?) title for PS4. We all know how we complain that it is all Indie games all the time, right? So there, the PS4 thief is going to be a PS+ free game not too soon.

  • Yakuza 4 Hell Yeah! Already have it but more people need to play it.

    Everyone here damn well better buy Yakuza 5 when it comes out!

  • I would play Thief on PS4, but onPS3 I have too many good games on my backlog.

    Anyway, very happy for rogue legacy! =)

  • Do you reckon they’ll make Thief a cross-buy? Because I’d rather play it on PS4 tbh. If it’s on PS3 it will just go into my backlog of OS3 games that I don’t play because I have so much to play on PS4.
    I’d honestly be happy with one game per console, but make it a decent one each time. Like Rogue Legacy, I’ve been waiting to get that for a good long while, and now it’s free! Bonus!
    Looking forward to playing the PS4 and Vita games, and at least reading the descriptions of the PS3 games!

  • Thank you for DriveClub+…….. and for taking the Youtube, Maps and Near apps from the Vita, it keeps getting better and better

  • Excited to try Rouge Legacy on PS4. I would be excited for Transistor if I hadn’t already purchased it but I don’t feel bad about supporting the developers. I keep getting all these PS3 games I want to play but I feel dirty turning the PS3 on while it’s sitting next to a PS4.

  • This is a solid line-up! Just got my PS4 so transistor is a HUGE plus for me. (pun not intended)

  • Great month, I’m a bit disappointed with Thief (was hoping it’d be free on both PS3 and PS4), but February is gonna be fun!

  • DANG! I thought last month’s was awesome!

    Thanks so much guys! These games look great!

  • woohoo yakuza is nice! not sure about thief but I think is cool as well

  • What a load of crap… Thats it, im selling my vita.

  • Driveclub PS Plus Edition, or are you waiting for a lawsuit?

  • Oh yeah this month is awesome! Apottheon was my most anticipated game prior to the order and bloodbourne thought it was pushed but now it’s free

  • Wow!!! Another stellar garbage month. Thief on PS3 and not PS4? Gotta love it. Love how we buy this great new POWERFUL system and the games we get you could power on on IPhone…. Power to the people…. Not…

  • Finally! Transistor!

  • I’m so sick of people complaining about indie games. if you really have a problem with it then I have the prefect console for you, XboxOne, they don’t have any.

  • Awe little kiddies sick of complaining by complaining about complaints

  • Good month lol i have enough of indies games. We want more games like outlast and infamous and injustice gods among us. Anyway i will cancel my ps plus thats wast of money.

  • I don’t know Kick & Fennick and I already have Yakuza 4, which has a lot of improvement needed but is still a really fun game, and the plot get really interesting as the game advance.
    Otherwise I’m pretty happy with the other games, I was waiting for a discount before buying Rogue Legacy, Apotheon and Transistor, now I can have them for free instead :). Really exited to play Rogue Legacy. I know it’s mostly indie games, but I prefer quality indie games like those than average blockbuster.

  • SONY excellent month, bravo !!!

  • The best game of the entirety of last year is free in February…. you’d have to be stupid to pass a deal like that up guys. Transistor ftw.

  • @229

    I’m worried because if these people get their way all we’re going to get is ****** AAA games like Thief, The Crew, and AC Unity, Transformers, and Knack

  • Transistor is great. I bought it day one. Very short tho… I was done in a day or two.

  • Great PS3 lineup. I was planning to buy Yakuza soon too. I hope that the PS4/Vita games next month are better though.

  • Transistor is one of the best games on the PS4 and if you’re hating on it because it was made by an independent studio, you’re straight up dumb. Roll a piece of poster board into a cone, write dunce on it, and put it on your head. Then go sit in the corner and think about what you’ve done.

    Ungrateful children.

  • I was excited when I saw thief….then i clicked the link. Only have a PS4 : /

  • This is one of the best months in ages. Thanks so much for Yakuza 4, Rogue Legacy, and Transistor! All the others look at least good too.

  • i am digging the art style of apotheon

  • I doubt the plus edition of Driveclub will ever get released but I wouldn’t be shocked if before the end of 2015 the full version is added to plus.

  • OMG, I think I just soiled myself. This is one of the BEST PS+ lineups I’ve seen in the last few months. Thief, Rogue, Y4, Transitor…..all games I’d LOVE to have & do not already. Totally cannot wait! :D

  • Oh my! Transistor and Rogue Legacy for free in my PS4 next Monty! Keepn t up, Sony!!

  • I’ll take it!

  • Nice month. No excuses to not try Transistor now

  • For as many people that say DriveClub sucks, people sure keep asking for the PS+ version of it. (I like the game).

    Apotheon looks really interesting, and I finally get to try Transistor. Fantastic month.

  • Great lineup. Whiners gonna whine.

  • Please Let March have GTAV or Minecraft for ps4 MY DREAM COME TRUE but i know this is highly unlikley wish i could get GTAV
    my Local Gamestore doesnt sell it and £54.99 is too much for me to spend D:

  • seems like the ps3 line up is usually better than the ps4 line up. maybe i should have waited to buy the ps4.
