PlayStation owners are not happy with the games they have been getting on PS Plus as of late. The games that are coming to the platform next month have already been leaked, and players aren’t too keen on trying out those games either. The games in question are Plants vs. Zombies: Battle for Neighborville, Tennis World Tour 2, and Hunter’s Arena: Legends.

The general consensus is that PS Plus wasn’t always like this and did get some good games at the beginning of the year (2021), but as the months went on, that changed. And it’s not like these games are exceptionally bad and aren’t worth picking up. It’s just that the trajectory that represents the quality of games on PS Plus keeps going downward.

A Plague Tale: Innocence (only for PS5) seems to be an exception. The game came to the platform with Call of Duty Black Ops 3 and WWE 2k Battlegrounds at the beginning of July, and players were more than satisfied with A Plague Tale. Unfortunately, the same can’t be said for the other two games.

Sony also needs to understand that not all games that have released in the past merit a place on the PS Plus platform. If a game is considered generally bad, don’t put it on the PS Plus. Or at least ensure that there are other titles coming with it that players are sure to like.
