The PlayStation Blog revealed what PlayStation Plus Premium and Extra owners can add to their Game Catalog this month. Each of January’s offerings will be available to Extra and Premium subscribers as of January 16.
Sony is highlighting Tiny Tina’s Wonderlands as a stand-out this month. It’s a spin-off from Gearbox’s renowned Borderlands series. This time around, the looter-shooter leans into the tabletop inspirations set forth by past content like Borderlands 2‘s Tiny Tina’s Assault on Dragon Keep. Chris Carter reviewed it at launch in March of 2022 and considered it “great”.
Resident Evil 2 (also coming to Game Pass) is the second headliner this month. Capcom’s “superb” remake of the iconic horror sequel wow-ed when it was released in 2019. I’d strongly recommend it if you’ve yet to explore Raccoon City on modern consoles.
Hardspace: Shipbreaker is also coming to the PlayStation Plus Game Catalog on January 16. You may not recognize the title, but this space-scavenging career sim impressed many when it launched on PC last year. Zoey Handley of the Destructoid awarded it with an 8.5 upon release.
An oldie but a goodie comes to the service in the form of LEGO City Undercover. The 2013 open-world title is one of few original entries in the LEGO-verse. It got solid reviews back then too.
Another classic in the form of Just Cause 3 is on the way too. Destructoid labeled it as “Explosion: The Video Game” in our 2015 review.
Those awaiting the upcoming free-to-play Skate project can try to quench their thirst with Session: Skate Sim this month. It’s self-described as an “ultra-realistic skating game” that’s “made by and for skaters”.
January also brings us the stealth samurai title Shadow Tactics: Blades of the Shogun. Vampire: The Masquerade – Swansong is a great option for those looking for some cool puzzles within a darker story. And Surviving the Aftermath, a post-apocalyptic resource management game, is the final PlayStation Plus Game Catalog offering of the month.
For those with PlayStation Plus Premium, there are five new titles coming to that retro library. Be on the lookout for Secret of Mana, Legend of Mana, Street Fighter: 30th Anniversary Collection, Star Wars: Episode 1 The Phantom Menace, and Rally Cross to drop in January as well.
