Sony announced the PS Plus games for May 2023, and the lineup is full of classics, a few stealth games, and even some niche picks cropping up as well. Retro games for the Premium tier are still pretty slim, though.
Ratchet and Clank: Rift Apart leads the charge. The space rabbit and robot’s PS5-exclusive adventure sees the duo travel through rifts in the universe, which is as much a showcase of the PS5’s processing power as it is a recipe for platforming brilliance. You can also download Arkane’s Dishonored 2 – the game that led to Deathloop – and the critically acclaimed Dishonored: Death of the Outsider.
The modern Tomb Raider trilogy, which includes Tomb Raider, Rise of the Tomb Raider, and Shadow of the Tomb Raider, is up for grabs, alongside Wolfenstein: Youngblood and The Evil Within 2.
This month’s offerings include a bumper crop of farm games, too. The brilliant Sakuna: Of Rice and Ruin puts you in charge of every aspect of rice growing, while dealing with demons in side-scrolling action segments, but if you’re wanting something more traditional, Rune Factory 4 Special and Story of Seasons: Friends of Mineral Town are there as well.
Elsewhere, we’ve got Lake, Rain World, and Thymesia on the list, while Premium subscribers get yet another Syphon Filter and Ghostbusters Remastered, with a few others.
You can check out the full list on the PlayStation Blog.
The May PS Plus games for Extra and Premium subscribers will be available to download starting May 16, 2023. As always, once you download them, they remain in your library for as long as you remain a subscriber at that tier.
