Sony has officially announced the full suite of PS Plus titles for May 2023 with a new selection of huge titles for subscribers to dig into including some Bethesda classics.
The full PS Plus May 2023 lineup is out now, with the three PS Plus Essential titles and a packed PS Plus Extra and Premium lineup making for a great month. After last months Bethesda-packed lineup, this month we're treated to some more titles from the Microsoft-owned publisher such as The Evil Within 2 and a duo of Dishonored titles, as well as the less-than-stellar Wolfenstein: Youngblood.
Some other titles of note include the entire reboot trilogy of Tomb Raider titles, three solid action adventure titles in the vein of Uncharted. There's also the super underrated Ghostbusters: The Video Game Remastered, which is a shockingly good Gears of War clone, it brings back the original cast together for a new story, which is frankly better than any of the litany of Ghostbuster sequels we've gotten over the years.
