Big PS Plus leak reveals all free games for January 2022

PlayStation will not officially reveal the PS Plus games for January 2022 until next week, but a leak has now anticipated the big announcement. All three free games for the PS4 & PS5 have been revealed – and the selection is quite impressive. It looks like it’s going to be a solid start to the new PlayStation year.

PlayStation Plus: Leak shows the free games for January

The last Tuesday of the month, many PlayStation players have probably marked themselves in red on their calendars by now. On this day, the PlayStation Twitter presents the new free games that PS Plus subscribers can download in the coming month. But thanks to a leak, we already know which free games are likely to be available for the PS4 & PS5:

• Dirt 5 (PS4 & PS5)
• Deep Rock Galactic (PS4 & PS5)
• Persona 5 Strikers (PS4)

Sony also appears in the coming month no exclusive games for PS5 players offer – that should come in handy for PS4 users. Because the next-gen console from Sony is still in short supply and even a year after the official start of sales, it is hardly available in stores.

The upcoming free games in detail

With Dirt 5 there is food for all rally fans. In the races you are on the road on off-road tracks that play in Brazil, China and even Norway, among others. You can expect a large number of different cars and vehicle classes, a dynamic weather system – and even one 4-player split-screen mode is included in the game.

You probably have the much better co-op experience in Deep Rock Galactic. In the first person shooter it is your task to uncover valuable resources of a planet and then to mine them. But dangerous aliens lurk in the depths of the rock who want to get to you. Players can choose between 4 classesall of which have different equipment and therefore have different advantages. Only together will you be able to successfully complete your mission.

With Persona 5 Strikers the well-known role-playing game series is taking a completely new path. Because this offshoot is not a classic RPG, but a so-called musou game, such as Dynasty Warriors. Dozens of opponents scurry across the screen at once, just waiting to be sent across the Jordan by you with quick combos and fat special abilities. Compared to the main parts of the series, the story and the gameplay are more linear, but Persona 5 Strikers was still able to convince us of its strengths in our test.

So far, the leak is still unconfirmed information, but the French deal side Dealabs has always been right in the last few months when it comes to predicting the new PS-Plus games. So we think that the information can be trusted.

What actually is PlayStation Plus – and is it worth it?
