Happy 2025! As we step into the new year, it’s time to gear up for some thrilling gaming adventures. This January, PlayStation Plus Monthly Games is serving up an exciting trifecta: get ready to battle a league of corrupted superheroes, engage in high-speed chases, and unleash some unexpected chaos. On January 7, PlayStation Plus members can dive into Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League, Need for Speed Hot Pursuit, and the quirky DEEEER Simulator: Your Average Everyday Deer Game. Let’s explore what’s in store!
First up, we have Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League for PS5. In this unique action-adventure shooter from the masters at Rocksteady Studios, known for the epic Batman: Arkham series, you can go solo or join friends in multiplayer co-op. Set in a sprawling open-world Metropolis, this game spins an original tale where four DC Super-Villains face off against not only an alien force but also the Justice League itself. What’s at stake? The city is under siege by the very heroes once sworn to protect it. With explosive devices fitted to their heads, the squad has no room for error. Each character brings a distinct skill set with enhanced movement abilities, a host of customizable weapons, and varying skills to hone—all while exploring this dynamic cityscape.
Next, the classic Need for Speed Hot Pursuit Remastered for PS4 hits the streets. Slap on your racing gloves and feel the adrenaline as you tear up the roads as either a rogue driver or a determined cop. Embrace the heart-pounding speed of some of the world’s hottest cars, use tactical weaponry to outwit your foes, and stake your claim on the leaderboards. With enhanced graphics, cross-platform multiplayer, and all additional DLC, this definitive version of Criterion Games’ breakout title is primed to reignite your passion for high-speed pursuits.
Lastly, we have the wonderfully eccentric DEEEER Simulator: Your Average Everyday Deer Game for PS4. Step into the hooves of an average deer, if that deer happened to have a stretchy neck and some killer horns. This “slow-life town destruction game” lets you decide between frolicking with animal friends or unleashing chaos on the city. The stakes get higher as you cause uproar, pitting you against a zany police force featuring kung fu sheep, bear-police-car hybrids, and rabbits with absurdly long ears. Embrace the adventure, uncover the town’s secrets, and live life truly wild!
Mark your calendar for January 7 to February 3, when all these games will be available to download for PlayStation Plus members. Meanwhile, don’t forget to download December’s hits—It Takes Two, Aliens: Dark Descent, and Temtem—before they leave the lineup on January 6.
Please note that the games available on PlayStation Plus may vary by region, so be sure to check the PlayStation Store on launch day to see what’s available in your area.
