The PlayStation Plus Game Catalog for May includes some heavy hitters like Sand Land and Battlefield V. All of the following games will be available to play on May 20.
First up, there’s the gorgeous Sand Land. This is an adaptation of an Akira Toriyama manga, the guy who created the Dragon Ball franchise. He also designed many of the monsters and characters in Chrono Trigger and the Dragon Quest series. The game is, more or less, a beat-for-beat recreation of the manga, wrapped up in a fast-paced action RPG package. There’s also an emphasis on vehicular combat. The game will be playable on PS4 and PS5.
Battlefield V brought the long-standing franchise back to WWII. The FPS also features a battle royale mode that can handle up to 64 simultaneous players. It’s a fun time, particularly for those sick of Call of Duty. It’s only available for PS4.
Soul Hackers 2 is a turn-based RPG developed by Atlus, who most recently made the absolutely fantastic Metaphor: ReFantazio. If you’ve played that, along with every Persona and Shin Megami Tensei game, this could scratch a very particular dungeon-crawling itch. It’s just for PS5.
The S.T.A.L.K.E.R. trilogy is also getting a remaster that drops on May 20, so this will be a day one release for PS Plus. The trilogy features updated graphics, keyboard and mouse support and gameplay modes specifically for PS5 Pro. The games will be playable on both PS4 and PS5.
Other titles for the month include Five Nights at Freddy’s: Help Wanted, Granblue Fantasy Versus: Rising, Humankind, Gloomhaven and Story of Seasons: A Wonderful Life. That’s a pretty stacked lineup. Again, these will all be available on May 20.
