Happy New Year, gamers! As we roll into 2025, it’s time to power up your PlayStation and dive into some thrilling new adventures with this month’s PlayStation Plus games. This January, you’ll get to battle corrupted superheroes, engage in high-speed pursuits, and live life as an unexpectedly chaotic deer—all launching on January 7 for PlayStation Plus members.
Let’s delve into the exciting lineup of games coming your way.
Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League | PS5
Rocksteady Studios, famous for the Batman: Arkham series, is back with a bang in this thrilling action-adventure game. Whether you rock it solo or team up with friends in multiplayer co-op, you’ll be taking on none other than The Justice League. Set in a sprawling open-world Metropolis, the game catapults you into a wild narrative featuring four notorious DC supervillains. Their mission? To fend off alien invaders and tackle DC’s corrupted superheroes. But there’s a twist—these villains must keep in check with the explosive implants in their heads that threaten to blow if they step out of line. Enjoy a unique moveset for each character, enhanced traversal abilities to explore the dynamic world, and a variety of customizations for your weapons and skills.
Need for Speed Hot Pursuit Remastered | PS4
Prepare for a heart-racing experience as you switch between the role of a law-bending driver and a high-speed enforcer. Need for Speed Hot Pursuit puts you in the driver’s seat of the world’s hottest performance cars. With updated visuals, cross-platform multiplayer, and all the DLCs included, this remastered edition brings back the classic thrills with an engaging, socially competitive edge—perfect for reigniting the chase as you take down lawbreakers or flee from the police.
DEEEER Simulator: Your Average Everyday Deer Game | PS4
Step into the unusual—and hilariously fun—world of DEEEER Simulator. You play as your typical deer in a city that’s yours to roam or wreck. Use your stretchable neck and pointy antlers to interact with the environment in unexpected ways. Engage in a bit of naughty behavior, and you might find yourself facing off against a peculiar force of animal law enforcers. From kung-fu master sheep to bears transforming into police cars, brace yourself for an utterly absurd—and entertaining—ride. Explore the city, stir up some mischief, and uncover its hidden secrets.
All three adventures will be accessible for PlayStation Plus users starting January 7 and will be available until February 3.
