Available Title(s)About the Product(s)
  • Star Wars: Squadrons: Master the art of starfighter combat in frenetic multiplayer space dogfights, and learn what it means to be a pilot in a thrilling Star Wars single-player story set after the events of Return of the Jedi and seen from alternating perspectives of two factions. The New Republic fights for freedom. The Empire demands order. Take control of iconic craft such as the X-wing and TIE fighter, customize loadouts and cosmetics, divert power between weapons, shields and engines while immersing yourself in the cockpit.
  • Virtual Fighter 5: Ultimate Showdown: Sega's iconic one-on-one battler gets remade for a new generation by Yakuza and Judgment developer Ryu Ga Gotoku Studio. This console exclusive debuts on PlayStation Plus, allowing both VF veterans and newcomers to experience the intense martial arts combat, deep strategy, and intricately balanced gameplay of the groundbreaking 3D fighter in stunning HD. New online features – like custom tournaments supporting up to 16 players and live spectating – join classic modes like Rank Match, Arcade, and VF5's famously robust Training to deliver the definitive Virtua Fighter experience.
  • Operation: Tango: Team up to save the world in this cooperative spy adventure, challenging you and a friend to join up online** to complete dangerous missions across the globe in a high-tech near-future world. Combine skill sets from different points of view – playing either Hacker or Agent – to overcome asymmetrical challenges, working in tandem with only your voice to link you. Teamwork is crucial, and communication is key! Note: Operation: Tango requires both players to have access to a working microphone.

Cheapest way to purchase is from the cdkeys or eneba deals that get posted here often. It's usually a little under $30 for a year.
Yes they will be playable/downloadable as long as your account is active. If you let it expire you won't be able to play them, but once you reactive it you can play them again.
Glad I held off on Squadrons.

Just FYI. Angry Joe mentioned in his review that Squadrons is infinitely more fun with a flight stick.

Never had PS Plus but looking to join. If I buy a subscription now, I can claim this month's games and they stay on my Plus account so long as I have an active subscription, yes? Same goes for this June batch of games?

Thank you in advance. Just wanted to make sure, and hear directly from fellow gamers. Smilie

Still waiting for a black series TIE fighter helmet. I don't mind paying more for the extra plastic it takes.

Yes! Longtime + member. There are many digital deals through third parties that significantly lower membership costs.

I was going to buy yakuza just to play virtual fighter. What timing. PS plus really pays for itself.

PS5 game is trash. Requires 4 human players working together with voice chat.
That'll die off FAST


Glad I wait on Star Wars that game actually looks fun.

It is more fun with a HOTAS but the game isn't all that great even with one.
