According to a recent rumor, Persona 5 Strikers, Deep Rock Galactic, and Dirt 5 will all be coming to PS Plus in Jan. 2022. If this is true, it will arguably be the strongest monthly PS Plus lineup in years.
The rumor comes from Dealabs user billbil-kun, who has accurately leaked every PS Plus offering for the last four months in a row. As they write in their recent post (as per a rough translation):
“For the fifth consecutive time and exclusively on Dealabs, I reveal to you the list of games offered with the PlayStation Plus subscription for the month of January 2022. I had thought of leaving you some games as a surprise, but I just wanted to spend my vacation peacefully.”
According to billbil-kin, Persona 5 Strikers, Deep Rock Galactic, and Dirt 5 will be available to download for all PS Plus subscribers from Jan. 4, 2022, and will be available until Feb. 1.
For those unacquainted with any or all of these games, this will be a pretty big month for PS Plus if the rumor bears fruit. Persona 5 Strikers is the widely lauded follow-up to the critically acclaimed Persona 5, and revolves around a riveting road trip across a fictional Japan as it becomes increasingly infested by the Metaverse – not that one.
Deep Rock Galactic is a space dwarf mining sim full of beer, bullets, and burly brawlers, while Dirt 5 is a racer that was a pretty big deal when new-gen consoles launched in November of last year. All in all, it’s a pretty good slate of games given that anyone subscribed to the service can download them for free.
Billbil-kun claims that the reason they are revealing this information ahead of time is to help people make informed purchases and avoid jumping on fake promotions.
Provided the rumor is true, the games will be available to download from Jan. 4, 2022.
In related news, the PS Plus version of Final Fantasy VII Remake is scheduled to receive a free PS5 upgrade today.
