PlayStation Plus: These are the free games in January

Month after month there are fresh full versions for subscribers of PlayStation Plus. Most recently, leakers always came before Sony’s official announcement – and as far as January 2022 is concerned, it could now have come to that again.

Update: These are the free games in January (12/30/2021 – 12:43 p.m.)

Sony has meanwhile followed up with the official announcement and confirmed the free games on PS Plus in January 2022. This leak has also proven to be correct: From January 4, 2022 you can subscribe to Deep Rock Galactic, DiRT 5 and Persona 5 Strikers.

Original message: Line-up for January leaked again? (12/22/2021 – 7:22 p.m.)

Christmas is just around the corner and December is largely over again. Accordingly, the official announcement of the game line-up on PlayStation Plus is imminent in January, but Sony may be able to get one (again).

Reason: As in the last few months, a previous leak has been made public this time, which could reveal the three full versions for subscribers of PS Plus. And the chance for that is quite high, because this time too, Dealabs user billbil-kun is responsible for the leak – and it has hit the mark in the past four months.

If he is right this time too, you will first get hold of the co-op shooter Deep Rock Galactic. The title from Coffee Stain Studios was only recently announced for the PS4 and PS5 for the first time.

Title number 2 is supposed to cause screams of joy among racing game fans, because this is supposed to be DiRT 5 from Codemasters. The game was one of the early launch titles on the PS5 and lets you prove your skills at the wheel on muddy slopes.

The line-up will be rounded off in January by Persona 5 Strikers, an action RPG spin-off in the style of the Dynasty Warriors series. This takes place after the events in the role-playing game Persona 5. All titles should be available from January 4, 2022, as long as the official announcement from Sony is still pending, but there is a residual risk that the otherwise reliable leaker will be wrong this time.
