PlayStation Plus December 2024 Free Games: Claim Aliens, It Takes Two, and Temtem
In an exciting announcement, Sony has unveiled the free PlayStation Plus games that subscribers can enjoy in December 2024. Each month, PS Plus users look forward to a new selection of games to enhance their digital libraries, and this December is no exception. All subscribers, regardless of their tier, can claim these titles as part of the Essential plan.
Free Games for December 2024
Starting December 3, PlayStation Plus subscribers will be able to download three notable titles:
- It Takes Two
- Aliens: Dark Descent
- Temtem
While “It Takes Two” and “Aliens: Dark Descent” are available for both PS4 and PS5, “Temtem” is exclusively a PS5 title. The standout among these is undoubtedly “It Takes Two,” which received the prestigious Game of the Year award at The Game Awards in 2021. This co-op platformer is celebrated for its engaging gameplay that requires two players to experience fully. Fortunately, with the Friends Pass feature, players can invite friends to join without needing them to own the game themselves.
“Aliens: Dark Descent,” on the other hand, offers a unique strategy experience set in the iconic Alien universe. Meanwhile, “Temtem” draws inspiration from Pokémon, providing players with an MMO experience that has gained a dedicated fanbase.
Availability and Subscription Benefits
These three games will be available for claim until January 6, 2025. One of the key benefits for PlayStation Plus subscribers is that they can retain these free games as long as their subscription remains active. This differs from the games offered under the Extra and Premium tiers, which rotate regularly.
Looking Back at November
As subscribers anticipate the December lineup, they still have the opportunity to claim the free offerings from November 2024. This month featured:
- Death Note: Killer Within
- Hot Wheels Unleashed 2: Turbocharged
- Ghostwire: Tokyo
Community Reactions
Given the acclaim surrounding “It Takes Two,” it’s no surprise that many in the community are expressing excitement over its inclusion in the December lineup. However, the requirement for co-op play may not appeal to all subscribers, particularly those who prefer single-player experiences.
As the year comes to a close, PlayStation Plus continues to deliver a diverse range of gaming experiences for its subscribers, ensuring that there’s something for everyone to enjoy.
