Final Opportunity to Claim PS Plus January 2025 Monthly Games

Last month, Sony treated PlayStation Plus members to a set of three fantastic games as part of their monthly freebie offering. Regardless of which subscription tier you have, you could snag Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League, Need for Speed Hot Pursuit Remastered, and The Stanley Parable: Ultra Deluxe at no extra charge. Now that February has rolled around, it’s time for these titles to make way for a fresh batch.

In case you missed it, the monthly games from January 2025 are being pulled from PS Plus today, February 3rd. While they didn’t exactly set the subscriber world on fire, one gem definitely deserves your time: The Stanley Parable: Ultra Deluxe. This narrative-driven game, with its myriad of endings, has garnered heaps of praise. On Metacritic, the PC version proudly holds an average score of 90.

The negative buzz last month largely stemmed from Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League. This action-packed title marked the much-anticipated return of Rocksteady, the brains behind the Batman: Arkham series. Sadly, the reception was less than stellar, with both players and critics voicing their disappointment. Even with its live-service angle, WB Games is wrapping up its support with the latest update, which amusingly adds Deathstroke to the lineup.

On the racing front, Need for Speed Hot Pursuit Remastered stands as a solid entry in EA Games’ long-standing series. Boasting a Metacritic score of 75 based on 36 reviews for the PS4, it’s clear the critiques didn’t focus on the game itself, but rather questioned the necessity of a remaster.

Starting tomorrow, PS Plus members can dive into February’s monthly freebies, which feature Payday 3, High on Life, and Pac-Man World Re-Pac. Get ready to explore these new adventures!
