Each month, PS5 and PS4 owners who subscribe to one of Sony’s PlayStation Plus tiers get to download and play a great selection of free games.
PS Plus is PlayStation’s online gaming service, which provides access to multiplayer gaming and other benefits, including money off many digital purchases. It is offered in a three tier system, with each adding increasingly impressive benefits, such as access to a huge library of current and classic games.
PlayStation 5 owners also get an added bonus of 19 classic PS4 games to play on their next-gen console through the PlayStation Plus Collection.
A PS Plus Essential subscription costs £6.99 / $9.99 / €8.99 per month. There are also PS Plus Extra and Premium tiers that cost a little more for additional services. You can read about them here.
All three give you access to the free games below.
Free PS5 and PS4 games list for February 2023:
Here are the confirmed free games PS Plus tier members can download in February.
On all consoles
These games are available to all PlayStation console owners, they can be downloaded and played on a PS4, PS4 Pro, PS5 or PS5 Digital Edition.
OlliOlli World
- Available: From 7 February to 6 March 2023
Available in both PS5 and PS4 flavours, OlliOlli World takes the simple skateboarding concept of OlliOlli and its direct sequel to a whole new level. It combines side-scrolling platform action with the cunning tricks and flips of the originals for a wonderful, engrossing game.
Mafia: Definitive Edition
The remake of the 2002 open world original is a joy to play. Mafia: Definitive Edition isn’t just a remaster, it had been rebuilt from the ground up and looks stunning as a result. It’s also the best of the trilogy, in our opinion.
Evil Dead: The Game
A long time coming, Evil Dead: The Game is a multiplayer, asymmetrical survival horror game that borrows some elements from the Dead by Daylight series but has more than enough in the locker of its own too. There are some single-player parts to it too, so everyone should find something to enjoy.
Destiny 2: Beyond Light
Considering Bungie has been a PlayStation studio for a while now, it’s somewhat a surprise that Destiny has taken so long to make it onto PS Plus. Still, Beyond Light is a great starting point and taster for the additional expansions.
On PS5 only
These games are only available to PS Plus members who own a PlayStation 5 or PS5 Digital Edition.
PlayStation Plus Collection for PS5
The PlayStation Plus Collection is a line-up of 19 classic PS4 games available to download and play on PS5 through backward compatibility. In some cases, they will have boosts to the loading times and graphical performance on PS5 (ie. frame rates).
Note though, the collection will only be available until 9 May 2023. However, if you redeem any or all of the games on the list you will be able to continue to download a play them after that date as long as you remain a PlayStation Plus member.
Here is the game list:
