Let’s dive into what these games have in store for you.
Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League | PS5
Embark on a thrilling mission to take down the Justice League in this innovative action-adventure shooter crafted by Rocksteady Studios, known for their acclaimed Batman: Arkham series. Set in the vast open-world setting of Metropolis, you’ll step into the shoes of four notorious DC Super-Villains. As they confront an alien invasion alongside once-heroic DC Superheroes now bent on destruction, each member of the squad is burdened by lethal explosives in their heads, keeping them in line. The game offers unique movesets, advanced traversal skills to explore Metropolis, plus customizable weapons and skills to master.
Need for Speed Hot Pursuit Remastered | PS4
Experience the intense thrill of high-speed chases and daring escapes in the remastered version of Need for Speed Hot Pursuit. Whether you’re defying the law or enforcing it, race in some of the world’s most elite cars, outsmart opponents with strategic weapons, and engage in a socially charged racing scene. With upgraded visuals, multiplayer that spans across platforms, and all additional downloadable content, this is the definitive edition of Criterion Games’ celebrated Need for Speed debut. It’s time to reignite the race.
DEEEER Simulator: Your Average Everyday Deer Game | PS4
Embrace the bizarre and hilarious life of a deer in this quirky game. Equipped with a stretchy neck and sharply pointed antlers, use everything in a deer’s toolkit to wreak havoc or simply enjoy a day in the city. Engage in playful antics with other animals or unleash pure chaos until the city is in ruins. But be warned—cause too much commotion, and you’ll be up against formidable animal police, including kung fu sheep and bear-patrol cars. Live life as a city deer while uncovering the city’s hidden secrets.
All these exciting titles will be available to PlayStation Plus members from January 7 until February 3.
