Add as a preferred source on Google

May’s PlayStation Plus titles were announced today, bringing new game freebies to the soon-to-be-changing subscription. The titles include FIFA 22, Tribes of Midgard, and Curse of the Dead Gods. Each of these titles is coming to the Plus hub on May 3 and will be free to download for members of the service.

FIFA 22 brings a new installment of EA Sports’ soccer (or football, depending on where you’re from) franchise to PlayStation 4 and PlayStation 5 PS Plus members. Subscribers will also be able to download the FUT Pack for FIFA 22 Ultimate Team. The pack includes 11 additional players (rated 82 and up) that can be added to an Ultimate Team. Players can also access the Icon Moments Loan Player Pick, which allows them to pick some of the most iconic players in history.

Tribes of Midgard, a co-op action role-playing game, is also coming to the service. The main draw of this title is the survival aspect, as players must work together (or alone in the single-player) to survive in the Norse mythology-inspired world. The game’s cooperative mode supports up to 10 players, making it a game best experienced as a group.

Finally, there’s Curse of the Dead Gods, a roguelike that many have compared to a similar title, Hades. This dungeon crawler throws players into caves on a quest of finding hidden riches with dark magic at their side to help them survive. However, a Curse Meter adds a “risk versus reward” twist to its gameplay.

These three titles are set to hit the PlayStation Plus hub on May 3. Subscribers have until May 2 to go and download last month’s free Plus games, Hood: Outlaws & Legends, SpongeBob SquarePants: Battle for Bikini Bottom — Rehydrated,  and Slay the Spire.

Persona 5 is also leaving the PlayStation Plus Collection on May 11, 2022.

GTA 6 could be coming to PC in early 2027
PC players may not have to wait nearly as long for GTA 6 as they did for GTA 5.
Grand Theft Auto VI GTA 6 Featured

PC gamers got their hopes up for a few hours last week. GTA 6 was reportedly headed to Xbox Cloud Gaming, which immediately opened the possibility of playing Rockstar’s next blockbuster on a Windows PC through streaming, even if a proper PC version was nowhere to be seen. Unfortunately, Xbox CSO Matthew Ball quickly shut that door. He clarified that GTA 6 won’t be streamed to PCs, and the original report was corrected soon after.

Well, PC players may not need that workaround for very long anyway. GamesBeat now reports that Rockstar is targeting the first quarter of 2027 for a native PC version of GTA 6. The outlet says it verified the window through four unnamed industry sources. Rockstar hasn’t announced anything officially yet.

One of my favorite exploration games is coming to iPhone. Even an iPhone 11 can run it
No Man’s Sky might be the game that finally makes me take iPhone gaming seriously
no man's sky

There are games I play to finish, and there are games I play simply because I want to disappear somewhere else for a while, and No Man’s Sky comes in this second category. Despite its disastrous launch, Hello Games' continued support turned the game around, making it one of gaming's biggest comebacks.

Now, ten years of updates have turned Hello Games' space sandbox into one of my favorite games for pure exploration and depth. Soon, this enormous universe is going to live on something as mundane as the phone in your pocket. Hello Games is bringing No Man’s Sky to iPhone and iPad on October 28, and the hardware requirements are surprisingly forgiving. You'll need an iPhone 11 or newer, or a third-generation iPad Air or newer.
