PS Plus Essential Archives

PS Plus Essential members have until the morning of Tuesday, 5th December 2023 to redeem them all. As long as you maintain an active membership, the PS5, PS4 titles in question will always be playable. We polled Push Square users over the weekend on this month's selection, and the results were less than positive. Nearly 50 per cent voted to say "it's a bad selection" while just 10 per cent of readers suggested they're happy with what's on offer. Mafia II: Definitive Edition Mafia II: Definitive Edition is a remaster of the classic 2010 open-world crime game. It features enhanced visuals, improved gameplay mechanics, and all of the original DLC. However, the PS4 version of Mafia II: Definitive Edition was released in a poor state, with many bugs and glitches. It's unclear whether these have been fixed since launch, so players should be aware of this before downloading the game. Aliens: Fireteam Elite Aliens: Fireteam Elite is a cooperative third-person survival shooter set in the Alien universe. Players team up to take on hordes of Xenomorphs and other deadly creatures. Reviews for Aliens: Fireteam Elite have been mixed, with some critics praising its cooperative gameplay and atmosphere, while others criticizing its repetitive gameplay and lack of content. Dragon Ball: The Breakers Dragon Ball: The Breakers is an asymmetrical multiplayer game set in the Dragon Ball universe. One player takes on the role of a powerful Raider (such as Cell or Frieza), while seven other players take on the role of Survivors. The Survivors must work together to escape the Raider and survive until the end of the match. Dragon Ball: The Breakers was met with mixed reviews upon release, with some critics praising its unique premise and multiplayer gameplay, while others criticizing its lack of content and balance issues. Overall Thoughts Overall, the selection of PS Plus Essential games for December 2023 is somewhat disappointing. Mafia II: Definitive Edition is a great game, but the PS4 version is buggy, Aliens: Fireteam Elite is a decent cooperative shooter, but it's lacking in content, and Dragon Ball: The Breakers is a mixed bag. If you're already a PS Plus Essential subscriber, then it's worth downloading all three games to see if you enjoy them. However, if you're thinking about subscribing to PS Plus Essential just for these games, then you might want to reconsider. Final Thoughts It's important to note that the selection of PS Plus Essential games varies from month to month. Sometimes, Sony offers a great selection of games, and other times, the selection is disappointing. This month's selection is definitely on the disappointing side, but it's possible that Sony will offer a better selection of games in January 2024. If you're a PS Plus Essential subscriber, then I recommend checking out the reviews for each game before downloading them. This will help you to decide whether or not each game is worth your time.
