Beyond Two Souls And Rayman Legends Is Free Via PlayStation Plus This May

PlayStation Plus users will have a new set of free games to look forward to next month as Sony is releasing some new titles that are up for grabs all throughout May. As always, these free games are for the PlayStation 4, the PS3 and the PS Vita. For this batch, some might be disappointed with the last generation tier, but the games for the current generation are relatively exciting.

The two games that are going to be free for PS4 owners this May are “Beyond Two Souls” and “Rayman Legends.” The former is a title by Quantic Dreams, the same studio that made “Heavy Rain” and the upcoming “Detroit: Become Human,” Gamespot reports.

Originally developed for the PS3, it has since been ported to the PS4 with a variety of improvement. The game stars Ellen Page as the protagonist Jodie Holmes and Willem Dafoe as her caretaker Nathan Dawkins, with an emphasis on providing gamers with a more cinematic experience similar to what they would get when watching a movie.

Unfortunately, the title didn’t really live up to the expectations of a lot of reviewers, but it still has its fair share of dedicated fans. More to the point, since it’s free, there’s really no reason not to get it.

Rayman Legends, however, is a platformer that was critically acclaimed and highly praised. As Forbes points out, it’s a game that is well worth the experience when paid. Since it’s about to become free to download, it’s an even better offer than before.

The other games that are free for PlayStation Plus users are “Risen 3: Titan Lords” and “Eat Them!” for the PS3. “King Oddball” and “Furmins” are also free for PS Vita.

The new batch of free games will become available come May 1st, which is when the previous batch will become unavailable to download. Anyone who wants to get Mad Max for free should get a move on now.
