It's time to take another look at the games coming to the PlayStation Plus subscription service this month, and the PlayStation Plus December 2024 lineup already has some pretty impressive games for you to try out.
As ever, games will be added to both the PS Plus Essential lineup, which everyone on Plus can access, and the Game Catalog, which is available to Extra and Premium members only.
Here's everything that's currently been confirmed to be joining the PlayStation Plus lineup in December 2024!
PlayStation Plus December 2024: Essential games
Three games will be joining the PS Plus December 2024 lineup for Essential users in December. Two of them are playable on both PS4 and PS5, while the third will require a PS5 to enjoy.
All of these games are being added to the service on December 3rd, so mark that date in your calendar if you've been waiting to play any of them.
- It Takes Two (PS5, PS4)
- Aliens: Dark Descent (PS5, PS4)
- Temtem (PS5, PS4)
PlayStation Plus December 2024: Extra and Premium games
Sony hasn't yet announced which games will be joining the PlayStation Plus Extra and Premium catalog in December, but we're expecting those games to be revealed towards the middle of December, so check back then!
PlayStation Plus December 2024: Ones to watch
Here are the games we think it's especially worth checking out on PlayStation Plus this December. If you've been looking for something to play while you wait for Christmas, look no further than our list!
It Takes Two (PS5, PS4)
This co-op platforming adventure sees parents May and Cody shrunk down to miniature size as they reckon with the effect their messy divorce is having on their daughter.
Enjoyably whimsical (and sometimes surprisingly bleak), It Takes Two comes from the studio that brought you A Way Out and Brothers: A Tale of Two Sons, and it's been a runaway success since launching in 2021.
Aliens: Dark Descent (PS5, PS4)
The legacy of solid Alien games continues with Aliens: Dark Descent, a squad-based tactical action game in which you control teams of marines as they battle a deadly xenomorph outbreak.
You'll need to have your wits about you to survive; the xenomorphs are deadly, intelligent, and numerous, so your marines will need to use every tool at their disposal to emerge (relatively) unscathed.
That's it for December's PlayStation Plus lineup! Let us know if we've missed anything as ever, and stay tuned for more games joining the lineup as and when we get them.
