PS Plus Free Games of January 2025

From January 7 to February 3, 2025, subscribers of PlayStation Plus can claim Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League, Need for Speed: Hot Pursuit Remastered, and The Stanley Parable: Ultra Deluxe for free.

Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League (PS5)

A break from the superhero lore, this action title from Rocksteady Studios puts players in the shoes of four infamous DC villains: Harley Quinn, Deadshot, Captain Boomerang, and King Shark.

The story is set in an open-world version of Metropolis, where an alien force has corrupted the Justice League. Your task is to eliminate the heroes who once protected the city.

Here is how PlayStation presents the title:

"Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League, is a genre-defying, action-adventure third-person shooter from Rocksteady Studios, creators of the critically acclaimed Batman: Arkham series."

It also adds,

"Each squad member has their own unique moveset with enhanced traversal abilities to freely explore the dynamic open-world of Metropolis, along with a variety of weapons to customize, and skills to master."
