Yesterday during their latest State of Play show, Sony quietly announced the next slate of games subscribers to the basic PlayStation Plus “Essential” tier can look forward to in March, and it’s a pretty loaded lineup. The PS Plus Essential games include Battlefield 2042, Minecraft Dungeons (yes, a Microsoft-published game on PS Plus), and more.
Here are the PS Plus Essential games that will be available on March 7:
Battlefield 2042 – PS4, PS5
Battlefield 2042 is an exhilarating first-person shooter that marks the return of the iconic all-out warfare the franchise is well known for. Set in a near-future world transformed by disorder, you'll have to adapt and overcome dynamic battlegrounds with the help of your squad and an arsenal of cutting-edge weapons and vehicles. With support for 128 players on PlayStation 5, Battlefield 2042 brings unprecedented scale on vast battlegrounds across the globe.
Minecraft Dungeons – PS4
Fight your way through an all-new action-adventure game, inspired by classic dungeon crawlers and set in the Minecraft universe! Brave the dungeons alone, or team up with friends! Up to four players can battle together through action-packed, treasure-stuffed, wildly varied levels – all in an epic quest to save the villagers and take down the evil Arch-Illager!
Code Vein – PS4
In the not too distant future, a mysterious disaster has brought collapse to the world as we know it. Towering skyscrapers, once symbols of prosperity, are now lifeless graves of humanity’s past pierced by the Thorns of Judgment. At the center of the destruction lies a hidden society of Revenants called Vein. Wandering aimlessly in search of blood, the Lost will stop at nothing to satisfy their hunger. Team up and embark on a journey to the ends of hell to unlock your past and escape your living nightmare in Code Vein.
In addition to the PS Plus Essential games listed above, Sony revealed a number of titles coming to the PS Plus Extra/Premium tier “catalog.” Specific dates were not placed on these games – presumably some or most of them are coming in March, but perhaps not all of them. The games listed were…
- Tchia
- Rainbow Six Extraction
- Immortals Fenyx Rising
- Ghostwire: Tokyo
- Uncharted: Legacy of Thieves Collection
Sony now offers three tiers of PS Plus – Essential for $10 a month, Extra for $15 a month, and Premium for $18 a month. You can explore the games available via each tier and sign up here.
