Update: 1/12/2023
Sony issued a correction to the PS Blog post and said Sayonara Wild Hearts was listed in error. The indie game will not actually be included in January’s selection of PS Plus Premium and Extra games.
Original Story: 1/11/2023
Sony announced the PS Plus Premium games lineup for January in a new PlayStation Blog post, and Dragon Ball, Life Is Strange, and Devil May Cry lead the pack. The PS Plus offerings for the first month of 2023 include over a dozen games, but the retro offerings are, as ever, rather slim.
If you don’t have the Extra or Premium tiers, you still get a selection of top-notch picks for January, including Jedi: Fallen Order.
First up is Devil May Cry 5: Special Edition, the PS5 upgrade of Dante and Vergil’s latest journey, complete with all existing DLC, including the Bloody Palace battle expansion. Back 4 Blood, the survivor horror successor to Left 4 Dead is also on the list, though without its DLC.
You can also download Dragon Ball FighterZ and take the fights global with online multiplayer, or sit back for a more narratively rich experience with Life Is Strange and Life Is Strange: Before the Storm.
The modern indie classic Sayonara Wild Hearts is also up for grabs, along with Just Cause 4, Onmo, and Erica, a thriller about a young woman convinced she murdered her father.
On the retro side, Sony is offering Syphon Filter, Star Wars Demolition, and Hot Shots Golf 2, all originally for the PS1.
January’s PS Plus Extra and Premium games will be available to download starting Jan. 17, 2023. Anything you download during its free period remains in your library until your PS Plus subscription expires.
