In June 2022, Sony embarked on a transformative journey with PlayStation Plus, merging it with the longstanding PS Now service. The latter faced challenges early on due to its reputation, prompting a necessary overhaul to refresh its image.
The revamped PS Plus now features three distinct tiers: Essential, Extra, and Premium. The Essential tier provides online features while offering a selection of free games monthly. Building on Essential, Extra hosts a steeper array of titles, including hundreds of PS4 and PS5 games. The Premium tier takes it further by introducing games from older consoles. Every month, Sony refreshes the offerings across all tiers, mixing in first-party exclusives, major third-party titles, and indie hits. However, the standout games vary monthly. Want to know which titles have been released as free PS Plus games?
Latest Update (January 30, 2025) by Mark Sammut: The free games for PS Plus Essential in February 2025 have just been announced, set to launch on February 4, 2025.
Free Games PS Plus Essential: February 2025
Payday 3 (PS5), High on Life (PS5/PS4), & Pac-Man World: Re-Pac (PS5/PS4)






Following the divisive offerings of January 2025, the lineup for PS Plus Essential this February is stirring yet again. The headliner this month is Payday 3, a multiplayer shooter by Starbreeze that sports heists at its core. Players are tasked with assembling crews to meticulously plan and carry out these heists.
The base game features eight heists along with additional side activities. While it does offer some narrative, the primary objective is to continuously execute heists to collect loot. Unfortunately, the sequel has faced difficulties in attracting die-hard fans from its predecessor, Payday 2. However, players looking for some heist action with friends should give this a shot while it’s available through PS Plus.
High on Life, a unique first-person shooter whose humor echoes that of Rick and Morty, might not cater to all tastes. Its comedic design and gameplay could be hit or miss, complemented by straightforward gunplay. Meanwhile, Pac-Man World: Re-Pac is a remaster of a beloved PS1 classic from 1999, enriched with modern enhancements. Even newcomers to the franchise should find it appealing if they enjoy platformers.
