Bloodborne and Ratchet & Clank headline March's free games lineup.
March is just around the corner, along with spring and some really great games. Let’s see what’s coming to PS Plus next week!
First up, we have the award-winning action RPG Bloodborne. Hunt your nightmares as you search for answers in the ancient city of Yharnam, now cursed with a strange endemic illness spreading through the streets like wildfire. Danger, death and madness lurk around every corner of this dark and horrific world, and you must discover its darkest secrets in order to survive.
Next, we have Ratchet & Clank. Get acquainted (or reacquainted) with some of the greatest heroes in PlayStation history. Based on elements from the original Ratchet & Clank (PS2), Ratchet & Clank brings Insomniac’s classic, out-of-this-world-gameplay to the PS4. Join Ratchet, Clank, Captain Qwark, and their new friends as they battle to save the Solana Galaxy. Armed with an arsenal of original weapons the franchise is renowned for, including the new Pixelizer and fan-favorites like the dance-party-inducing Groovitron, you’ll explore the galaxy and get a deeper look at the origin story of these two beloved characters.
This month’s PlayStation Plus lineup also includes:
- Legend of Kay, PS3
- Mighty No. 9, PS3 (Cross Buy with PS4)
- Claire: Extended Cut, PS Vita (Cross Buy with PS4)
- Bombing Busters, PS Vita (Cross Buy with PS4)
For fans of Dungeon Defenders II, we also have the Dungeon Defenders PS Plus Pack available starting March 13 to April 10 for PS Plus members. This pack contains 4 Shadow Costumes, 1 Million in gold, 5 Campaign Shard Packs, 5 Defender Packs, and a Ninja Gato Pet. Get your hands on this PS Plus Pack and jump into the action.
We also have an important service update. Starting next year on March 8, 2019, the PS Plus monthly games lineup will focus on PS4 titles and no longer include PlayStation 3 and PlayStation Vita titles. This won’t affect any games you’ve already downloaded, or will download, prior to March 8, 2019. Those games will still be part of your PS Plus games library as long as you remain a member. Your game saves and other benefits of PS Plus will also remain the same – the only change is that no new PS3 and PS Vita games will be added to the PS Plus monthly games lineup beyond March 8, 2019.
Many of our fans are playing on the PS4 platform, with the increasingly vast number of PS4s in homes around the world. We’ll continue to prioritize the benefits you receive through your PS Plus membership, such as online multiplayer, online game save storage, PS4 monthly games, and exclusive PS Store discounts across content and network services. As a reminder, if you do not wish to continue your subscription, please be sure to cancel it by turning off auto-renewal in your account settings before March 8, 2019.
There are plenty of new games and exclusive PS Store discounts to come for PS Plus members, and we look forward to sharing this with you in our ongoing monthly blog posts. As always, we thank you for your continued support.
Fine with the elimination of PS3 and Vita, though I’m less enthused about the lack of replacement for them.
Like, if the plan is to do two PS4 games but make them “bigger” games, like we’re getting here with Bloodborne and Ratchet and Clank, that’s…a good start. But an indie game and a monthly PSVR title (since the library for that platform will be quite large by then) would be a nice replacement.
Raising the price and then cutting the Plus lineup down by 2/3 is…..a bit tough to swallow.
I agree. I would have hoped at least be 3 with 2 PS4 games and 1 VR game a month. It tells me and I hope I am right that we will get better PS4 like AAA or higher end indie games during that time before the PS5 comes out. If they don’t offer the top 2 games like they are this month every month starting next March, I think they will lose a lot of subscribers at the end. Sony better not get too cocky because if Xbox keeps it with Games with Gold, Game Pass, and the 360 BC library on Xbox One, Sony will start to see their lead slip away,
