Tunic! I’ve wanted to play that for ages.

[@majorasghost5690]

I played a bit of tunic myself. It's a great game animal crossing meets Zelda and dark souls lol. Hope ya have fun

[@WarriorOfTheHeavens]

Tunic is about the only game I'll play since I don't have a ps5 to get GhostRunner 2 and well the rest isn't my thing.

[@animetherapy2796]

Same

[@coldfries8976]

ikr! cant wait

[@misanthrope5063]

Buy an Xbox

[@JakeTheDrum]

Ghostrunner 2 and Tunic! 2 games I've been itching to play, exciting times!

[@coldfries8976]

FACTS! Best month this year!

[@JakeTheDrum]

@@coldfries8976 100%!

[@o.c.4677]

Those 2 games are awesome

[@praisejeebus7544]

How much are they paying you to convince people ps plus isn't a scam 😂

[@joeldfisher]

been holding out for Tunic, really looking forward to playing it

[@tmsact]

Why don’t you just get a Nintendo already.

[@joeldfisher]

@@tmsact already got one

[@TheMightyBigga]

​​@@tmsactthis comment is ignorant AF. Tunic is a straight up souls game with crazy deep puzzles. Couldn't hack it?

[@captainwafer7965]

Ghostrunner 2 has barely been out for half a year, and it's now free on PS Plus?

[@mrrandomdude4291]

Underperformed?

[@Murphys_Law9]

that’s a good thing for ppl that don’t buy much games

[@remon.d8341]

I liked the gameplay of 1, only this games makes it already worth it

[@thomashewitt8104]

I know right? Can’t wait to pick up 2, it was on my wishlist but hadn’t got round to it yet

[@Ic3h0rnEt14]

I bought it at launch and still haven't finished it.

[@ANGELOFDARKification]

EAFC is just FIFA btw. I don't want people to think it's completely different because it's still a casino simulator with another title 😂

[@brunopinto6178]

Tell me what other better football simulation game is out there?

[@ANGELOFDARKification]

@@brunopinto6178 There isn't, doesn't mean EAFC is good though

[@DanFarrell98]

Casino simulator? How so?

[@andyc7666]

If you're not into Ultimate Team ( which I'm not) it's not really worth getting unless you're obsessed with football. It's also almost the end of the footie season so yeah not too bothered but Ghost runner 2 looks worth it

[@captainwafer7965]

@@ANGELOFDARKification you know they are legally not allowed to call it FIFA because FIFA 23 was the last FIFA game. They got fed up with EA.

[@dduncan]

Tunic reminds me of a more colourful deaths door.

[@WestonWoodfin]

A bit better than Deaths Door IMO. Tunic just has a really magical quality about it that feels really rewarding to play and beat.

[@otterpoet]

Been wanting to play _TUNIC_ for ages. (I tried Ghostrunner, but that game kicked my old reflexes' teeth out the back of my head. I can't imagine what GR2 is like XD)

[@HugoStiglitz88]

Actually ghostrunner 2 is A LOT easier. I think they heard complaints from console gamers since most of us aren't top tier players and gave the ghostrunner more abilities to avoid getting hit (like there's even a block button now) and also made the enemies more varied but also a lot more reasonable (there's less of the most annoying enemies from gr1 too) It's still tough but you might be able to deal with this one

[@DanielJamesShirley]

Really surprised we’re getting Ghostrunner 2 already! As expecting that next year as only came out last October, maybe it didn’t sell as well as it should? Been waiting for Tunic as well!

[@_General_Grievous__]

I swear we get something Destiny related every two months😂

[@GenerationZ313]

We got Beyond Light February of last year, and then a few months ago, we got The Witch Queen, and now Lightfall. By this point, I'm certain they will just give us all the expansions to garner attention before Destiny 3 inevitably becomes a thing.

[@Oberstien17]

I don't think there will be destiny 3 ​@@GenerationZ313

[@danielwilliams7562]

They hurting for more presales for Final Shape

[@daysgone2997]

sony own bungie

[@egweimai6636]

​@@lawofaverages5373 that's the point, we're still into it bc it's a good game PLUS we get a bunch of free stuff by being subscribed to ps plus. What's better than getting great games for free? Getting great expansions for Destiny alongside.

[@JonnyHyperbole2090]

Good month and one that is new to me, a rarity. Hoping for a good catalogue edition to follow this. 🙏

[@milandanhof3093]

at what time are the new games available in Europe, its the 7th but i still cant claim them

[@AaronTheHipHopGuy]

This is one of the best months in a while I’ve been wanting to play Tunic

[@Itsheisenberg]

Tunic is excellent. Ive got the platinum

[@chrismassey6991]

One of the best haha you high

[@QuacklingTD]

I forgot to get my games that month And I Regret it so much

[@vuyisamntabeko1350]

I am in RSA and I haven't seen FC24 on this months games. What is going on?

[@skylinezan]

Tunic? Oh yeah!

[@markhutton6824]

I will get all three but probably play Ghostrunner 2 and Tunic... FC24 can be there in the background of the library

[@loiyz5313]

Tunic looks interesting

[@GabbyScabby]

So pumped about Tunic! Always wanted to try it and finally a perfect reason!

[@joet6434]

Tunic & Ghost Runner 2, not a bad month.

[@luxlid3135]

Ghost Runner looks like a lot of fun

[@user-Dragon-King740]

These games looks wack lol are you kidding me

[@joet6434]

@user-Dragon-King740 What type of games would appeal to you?

[@DogTBH]

Good month for Essential! Thank you for the effort and the upload!

[@Mattzere]

Another incredible month. Glad more people can try tunic! And I've been wanting to catch up on Destiny!

[@Anime-Doom]

Tunic has been on my radar for quite a while so getting that free is really nice, Ghostrunner however is something I've somehow managed to never even hear of and my god does it look amazing.

[@HugoStiglitz88]

Both are amazing but 2 is better. Especially for beginners tbh (it's a lot easier which is NOT a bad thing lol)

[@raymondcroteau]

I miss game manuals.

[@EdibleKnife]

Cool, I got tunic it's amazing and I've been wanting to play GhostRunner 2

[@LiamLivesOn]

Oh wow, I wanted to get the new FC game last month but didn't want to spend £30 on a game I'd just play very occasionally. Very happy with the month

[@SquallRanger]

Same. I'm happy for FC24

[@jimmyj8161]

Me too 😊

[@coldfries8976]

Happy to see everyone getting a game they like :)

[@Gunner84]

That's only game I'm happy for this month

[@Alsarmi_]

@@Gunner84bro quick question is this games only stand for 1 month then they will gone?!

[@Chishannicon]

Haven't even heard of Tunic before, but it looks great. Definitely gonna pick up that one.

[@devilhunter2323]

Tunic is very good

[@Ray_9832]

I've purchased destiny 2 lightfall from ps essential category and when I select lightfall in destiny 2 it says to buy it I need help I don't know who to ask help from

[@Minecrafter_2001]

I own FC 24, only god game is Lithfall from Desteny 2, is an add-on so it remains after PS plus expiers.

[@ps3usrdir]

For how much time is free?

[@danlemongton7534]

I'm pretty happy about this month. Tunic and Ghostrunner 2 are games I've been wanting to pick up for a while, and I just recently started playing Destiny 2 again so getting lightfall for free is also pretty nice.

[@--Avi--]

Literally just bought Tunic in the sale 😂

[@girl_on_fire_x_x]

Tunic is a great game - really clever little puzzles and combat. Played it on Xbox, but I'll play it again. Looking forward to Ghostrunner 2 as well. The first one was amazing. Nice mix of games this month 👍

[@lucafernandes5267]

Pls someone tell me can i play ps plus extra games and bought library and go back to ensational ps plus 😢 can i still able to play ps extra games? 😊

[@NEOMERCER]

Excellent month just for Tunic & Ghost runner honestly.

[@alejandropelaez8507]

Tunic its very interesting

[@JarvisSensei]

Tunic is wonderful ❤

[@dondaileyii]

I like this month. I always wanted to play Ghostrunner, so I’m good with playing 2. Tunic looks cute also. I’ll add the EA game but I haven’t played a sports game since the Dreamcast I think.

[@PKHalford]

YES! Tunic has been on my Wishlist for ages!! So excited to finally play it!!

[@wiht3592]

I still don’t have access to lightfall, not showing up in destiny store or ps store as free

[@CLEAPEY]

Somehow it doesn’t show in plus tap, but if you go to destiny 2 and scroll through the add on you will see lightfall have plus icon on it, you can claim it from there

[@TheSquirlyBoi]

Do not sleep on GhostRunner.. you feel awesome when you clear a section perfectly.

[@xliquidpliskinx4327]

Thanks Rob, happy for tunic

[@dmacks]

Can't wait to play as Crewe Alexandra

[@MartinAleksanderAksnes]

Nice month I must say, I am planning to buy Martha is Dead but I don't know if it will appear in PLUS.

[@GhostFruitXIV]

Aghh when rainbow six well be in plus free month game? I was playing it in extra but now in deluxe plus 😢😢😢😢

[@exonicc]

Does Lightfall include current season like if you would purchase it?

[@Drag0nk1ngmark]

Yeah been wanting to know the same question too. Friends want me to get Lightfall so I can rejoin after dropping D2 before witch queen

[@preythestars]

I think it’s just the expansion itself and not the seasons included

[@brenoret1963]

Alguém sabe dizer se vai dar pra jogar do ps3?

[@rafaelnahafahik7781]

Now's your chance! It's amazing, and so deceptively deep

[@EmiTerasu_]

@@rafaelnahafahik7781I agree. I initially wrote it off as a cheap Zelda knock off. Boy was I humbled 5 minutes into the game.

Looks great, but not the kind of games I play. I am sure others will like the lineup

[@grahamkelly8662]

I couldn’t get hang of ghost runner and gave up. Doubt I’ll try pt 2

[@chaoslordlordofchaos]

I'm in the same boat, but others are saying it's easier, so it might be worth a chance, being free at least.

[@grahamkelly8662]

@@chaoslordlordofchaos yeh I did think of that and pr2 looks way better and more varied or combat then 1

Month where im pleased. Held off on FC and here we are. Tunic never heard of and looks fun; will yry it out. Destiny player since OG D1 so will just add that to the one expansion i skipped and stopped playing on lol. Ghost runner not interested what so ever. 8.8/10 for me personally with the lineup.

Alright now put octopath traveler 2 on the monthly games because Ive been wanting to buy it but I just know once I buy the game its going to get put on the game pass!

Full game

[@TheMightyBigga]

If you're not familiar with Tunic, that can look misleadingly like some cutesy Zelda clone, but it's more like Dark Souls meets Fez. It's an absolute gem that's best enjoyed as blind as possible.
