Sony has officially announced the lineup of games coming to the PS Plus Extra and Premium tiers this December, confirming earlier leaks and adding several exciting new titles. The selection offers a diverse mix of blockbuster action, family-friendly adventures, and unique indie experiences, all set to become available for subscribers starting December 16th.
Assassin’s Creed Mirage and Wo Long: Fallen Dynasty stand as the major headliners for the month. They are joined by a strong supporting cast including Granblue Fantasy: Relink, Planet Coaster 2, and Cat Quest 3. The charming Lego Horizon Adventures, a brick-built reimagining of Aloy’s journey, also joins the service alongside the already-available indie title Skate Story. Younger gamers are catered to with Paw Patrol: Grand Prix and Paw Patrol World.
Exclusively for PS Plus Premium members, the classic fighting game Soulcalibur 3 will be added to the game catalog. This addition provides a nostalgic hit for fans of the long-running weapon-based combat series.
Critical reception for these titles has varied. While Lego Horizon Adventures has been described as a visually appealing but somewhat shallow experience, Assassin’s Creed Mirage earned significant praise for its focused historical setting and a return to the series’ stealth-oriented roots. The standout critical darling, however, is Skate Story. This surreal narrative adventure, which tasks a demon with skateboarding to eat the moon, received top marks for its extraordinary creativity and gorgeous presentation.
This December update continues to build substantial value into the PlayStation Plus subscription, providing members with a wide array of games spanning multiple genres and age ratings. For a complete overview of everything available through the service, dedicated guides listing all current games are an excellent resource.
