Leak shows 'Life is Strange' among free PlayStation Plus games for June

Add as a preferred source on Google

June is just around the corner, but Sony has still not revealed the list of free games that will be available to PlayStation Plus subscribers. However, a now-deleted tweet from PlayStation Turkey appears to shed light on a few of next month’s freebies.

Spotted by popular gaming forum NeoGAF, the PlayStation 4 free games for June appear to be Life is Strange and Killing Floor 2. Life is Strange originally released as an episodic title in 2015, which each episode costing $5 — the full season could be purchased at a discount for $20. The game has already sold more than 3 million copies, and developer Dontnod has begun work on a second season, though it’s not clear if it will follow any of the same characters from the original.

Killing Floor 2 is more surprising. The game is only about six months old, and has drawn attention for its ultraviolent gunplay and extremely detailed gore effects. It received a moderately positive critical response, with its core shooting mechanics and multiplayer features earning praise. The game’s lack of modes was criticized, however.

These leaked titles are only the PlayStation 4 freebies that PlayStation Plus subscribers should expect next month. Sony also offers two PlayStation 3 and PlayStation Vita games, as well, though the games haven’t been as impressive in recent months. May saw the PS3’s Blood Knights and the Vita’s Laser Disco Defenders offered for free. April, meanwhile, offered Invizimals: The Lost Kingdom, a Pokémon-like hated by reviewers and consumers alike.

Should Sony’s other free games match the quality (and price) of its PlayStation 4 offerings, it could give June’s Xbox Games With Gold list a run for its money. Xbox players will have free access to the original Watch Dogs, Assassin’s Creed, Speedrunners, and Dragon Age: Origins next month.

Phantom Blade Zero hands-on: An extraordinary game with unbelievable combat that I can’t get enough of
Every fight feels like a beautifully choreographed martial arts movie, except I'm the one controlling every move.

We have had a considerable number of high-profile game releases this year, but none so far have had as much hype behind them as Phantom Blade Zero. The source of all that hype was a 2023 trailer highlighting its fluid kung-fu-derived sword combat. Considering that, at the time of writing this piece, there are over 700,000 concurrent players on Steam alone, on a weekday no less, I think it's safe to say that the hype has converted into gamers actually showing up for the game. I have sunk around 10 hours into this game today, and so far, it has been nothing short of an absolute masterclass in action combat.

The developers say Claude did most of the programming while they directed the work and tested the results. It’s still experimental, but games run locally without installing a desktop emulator.
