You can get Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain with your PlayStation Plus membership in October. There's also the Amnesia collection, which has both The Dark Descent and A Machine for Pigs, two games I'm too scared to play.

The Ys series has been setting the bar for combat and music in action role-playing games since 1987. The latest game, Ys VIII: Lacrimosa of Dana, is no different, but it does have something more recent entries have lacked -- a memorable story.

Infamous: Second Son has always looked pretty cool but I never got around to it, so I'm really excited it's in this month's PS Plus lineup. There's also some extras in this month's lineup, including a free PSVR game. As usual, these games are only free if you have an active PlayStation Plus account.

Square Enix's long-running Itadaki Street series (basically a take on Monopoly) has a new game coming out to celebrate the 30th anniversaries of both Final Fantasy and Dragon Quest (though the latter's 30th was actually last year). Its trailer sure is something.

I'm excited to see Just Cause 3 on August's PS Plus lineup, since I always meant to check it out. There's also Downwell for the Vita with crossbuy on PS4, bringing my total ways to play Downwell to three, which is not nearly enough.

Until Dawn and Game of Thrones headline PlayStation Plus' games lineup this month. July also sees some add-ons in addition to the usual roster of games. As always, these games are only free if you have a PlayStation Plus membership.

We already have more awesome games than we can possibly play, so why not add a bunch more? Here's all the big games coming out this winter.

If you missed Life is Strange, PlayStation Plus has you covered with June's lineup. You'll also get Killing Floor 2 for PS4. As ever, these games are only "free" if you have an active PlayStation Plus subscription.

May's PlayStation Plus lineup features Alienation and Tales from the Borderlands. As ever, these games are only "free" if you have an active PlayStation Plus subscription.

It took Ska Studios just over a year to get its side-scrolling action game onto the Vita, but the wait was worth it. Salt and Sanctuary takes the best of Metroidvania-style games and Souls-likes and condenses it into the idea portable experience.

April's PlayStation Plus lineup features a launch game, Drawn to Death, as well some older games you might have missed. Co-op Lovers in a Dangerous Spacetime is a lot of fun if you enjoy yelling at your friends under the guise of teamwork.

Atsushi Morita, the head of Sony Computer Entertainment Japan Asia, wants you to going to keep focusing on the Vita. Thank Minecraft for that!

The best Digimon game in ages is getting a follow-up, because that's how successful games work. Digimon Story: Cyber Sleuth - Hacker's Memory is coming to PlayStation 4 and Vita in Japan later this year, with a Western release in early 2018.

March's PlayStation Plus offerings include the lovely-looking Tearaway Unfolded for the PS4 and Severed for the Vita, which we enjoyed. As usual, these games are only free if you have an active PlayStation Plus membership.

Salt and Sanctuary is still coming to the Vita. At least according to a recent blog post from the developer, Ska Studios, who wrote yesterday that the team is hoping for the Vita version to arrive sometime in March. The game originally released in March of last year as a totally excellent 2D Souls-like.

One of the first games I download whenever I get a new phone or tablet is Deemo, a touching tale of love, loss and sacrifice told through a piano-esque rhythm game. PM Studios and acttil are bringing the game to PlayStation Vita this Autumn.

There's a range of games in PlayStation Plus' lineup for February, which drops on the 7th. I can't not "aaww" at the LittleBigPlanet games, and though I wasn't a huge fan of Not a Hero on PC, I might really enjoy blasting away at foul-mouthed pixel enemies from my couch.

Uta-wa-re-ru-mono. The name of the adult tactical role-playing visual novel series is a bit tricky to pronounce, but I'm sure we'll have it down by the time Atlus is done releasing Utawarerumono: Mask of Deception and Mask of Truth for Western PS4 and Vita this year.

There's an interesting range of games in PlayStation Plus' lineup next month. Most exciting to me is The Swindle, a steal 'em up platformer I enjoyed a lot on PC. There's also This War of Mine: The Little Ones, which adds what I'm sure is heart-wrenching content to an already heart-wrenching game.
