Greetings everyone, seems like the PS Plus Games have been released for the 10 year anniversary :)

They are: Erica, Rise of the Tomb Raider and NBA 2K20.

Hi everyone! Wow, it’s been 10 years since PlayStation Plus was first introduced to the world on June 29, 2010, and we truly want to thank all of you for supporting PS Plus over the past decade. It’s been a memorable journey over the years, bringing gamers together and providing access to compelling content and exclusive discounts for our members. We wouldn’t be here without all of you, so as a thank you, we wanted to make this upcoming monthly games announcement extra special by adding a bonus game to our incredible lineup.

Here are the games for PS Plus members, available July 7 until August 3.

Erica:

Immerse yourself in an interactive live-action thriller which puts you at the heart of the mystery.
• Delve into Erica’s past as you piece together the shocking truth behind her father’s death.
• Face the consequences of your actions as you influence how the narrative unfolds and arrive at multiple alternative endings.
• Reach into the world by interacting with clues using your DUALSHOCK®4 wireless controller or the Erica app for iOS and Android*.

Rise of the Tomb Raider : 20 Year Celebration

In Rise of the Tomb Raider, Lara Croft becomes more than a survivor as she embarks on her first Tomb Raiding expedition to the most treacherous and remote regions of Siberia.

Rise of the Tomb Raider: 20 Year Celebration is PS4™ Pro Enhanced and offers three modes to customize your gaming experience: 4K Resolution for unprecedented fidelity, High Framerate for even smoother gameplay, or Enriched Visuals for the lushest and most realistic graphics possible.

The game includes the new “Blood Ties” single player content, PSVR support for “Blood Ties”, new 'Lara's Nightmare' zombie combat mode, new online Co-op play for Endurance mode, new “Extreme Survivor” difficulty setting for the main campaign, 20 Year Celebration outfit and gun, and 5 classic Lara skins. It also includes all previously released downloadable content. With over 50 hours of gameplay, and nominated for more than 85 awards, this is the most comprehensive version of the critically-acclaimed experience.

NBA 2K20

NBA 2K has evolved into much more than a basketball simulation. 2K continues to redefine what’s possible in sports gaming with NBA 2K20, featuring best in class graphics & gameplay, ground breaking game modes, and unparalleled player control and customization. Plus, with its immersive open-world Neighborhood, NBA 2K20 is a platform for gamers and ballers to come together and create what’s next in basketball culture.

As always, enjoy :)

      Yes but no. You need an active subscription to play. Whilst you have the subscription you have to purchase the games for free.

    The whole tomb raider reboot trilogy was really under rated and rise is probably my favourite of the 3. Definitely worth playing if you never have it's really good.

    • punk on 30/06/2020 - 07:37

      Is it worth checking out the first one before starting this or doesn't matter?

      • Caped Baldy on 30/06/2020 - 09:05

        I've only played the first reboot and thought it was excellent.

      • BargainGeezer on 30/06/2020 - 14:05
        +1

        I felt the story in all the games was super forgettable, even though the game itself was a lot of fun. I'd say you'd be fine playing the second one before the first.

      • ONEMariachi on 07/07/2020 - 22:10

        I played the first one about 6 months ago, quite fun worth the play. Each one gets progressively better.

    • SDF05 on 30/06/2020 - 12:02
      +1

      Definitely worth playing but imo the first one is probably the best of all the three. I 100% completed it as well, which is pretty nice to say for the first one.

      Second game (the one on this deal) drags a bit too long but still a pretty good story nonetheless. And it's free too.

  • nomoneynoproblems on 29/06/2020 - 23:34

    This is the best Tomb Raider out of the 3 reboots imo.

    • Rimzi on 30/06/2020 - 07:33

      Yes I agree. Edit: wait I thought Shadow was

      • keejoonc on 30/06/2020 - 10:15
        +2

        for me it went downhill after the first reboot. shadow was the worst.

        • Rimzi on 30/06/2020 - 11:33
          +1

          Yeah a lot of people didn’t appreciate Shadow’s focus on exploration over the combat. it was a perfect mix for me.

          • ONEMariachi on 07/07/2020 - 22:11
            +1

            @Rimzi: I personally found each one to got better than the last myself. Shadow was fantastic. I'm a sucker for good exploration though.

              +1

              @ONEMariachi: Totally agreed. Just imagine what they will achieve with the next one

              • ONEMariachi on 07/07/2020 - 23:17

                @Rimzi: Gotta say, getting pretty excited for exploration/open world games with the new tech/engines of the next gen consoles coming.

        Nah, I'm pretty sure you can download the games off PSNow (except for the PS3 ones) if your internet isn't good enough to stream. I assume it's more some kind of business reason behind this more than a technical one. I suspect they'll probably make it available here around the time the PS5 is released, but who knows.

    Remember when Tomb Raider 2 released exclusively on Xbox? Made me so mad that I swore I wouldn't pay for it. Now I just have to wait for number 3 to follow suit.

    as a thank you, we wanted to make this upcoming monthly games announcement extra special by adding a bonus game to our incredible lineup.

    Gee whiz, mister, a whole bonus game, bringing the total up to 3 this month? Wow thanks. That's almost as many as Xbox and now about half what you'd get in an average month in the day.

      Did you just compare 3 newer games to 2 ancient satanicbox360 games?!?

      wow I'll never know the mentality of xboTs…and frankly I don't wanna know, not gonna get brainwashed by a satanic corporation…

      • TheDukeOfNukem on 01/07/2020 - 10:10
        -2

        First off, not an Xbot.
        Second, the reasoning for my post is more the last bit, that this is half of what SONY used to give us.
        Third, "not gonna get brainwashed", buddy, you are unironically calling the 360 the "satanicbox360" and I'm the brainwashed one?
        Forth though, yes I am comparing it. Tomb Raider is 5 or so years old, NBA is a dollar everywhere every year, and this "bonus game" is like 13 dollars on the PSN. I'd say both are offering a pretty budget lineup, only differences it the quantity.

    Rise of the Tomb Raider comes with this randomly generated winter search and survival mode, completely moddable by cards you find in the main game. You can even play it co-op. IMO it’s one of the best dlcs ever released for any game.

  • AngusD on 30/06/2020 - 08:31

    Already got Tomb Raider and no interested in NBA 2K20, but I think I'll give Erica a go. I haven't played an FMV game since the early days of CD ROM gaming when they were laughably, cringe-inducingly bad, generally with actors so amateurish that you had to assume that they'd just roped the office receptionist to stand in front of a green screen for half an hour during her lunch break. Well, apart from Ripper which had Christopher Walken, Karen Allen and John Rhys-Davies (among others) in it. But was still garbage :D

    10 years with this game selection is a cop out. Really, NBA? Whatever Sony, huge respect for EPIC and everything they do now.

    • Reecey on 30/06/2020 - 10:03
      +2

      I agree. Me personally i hoped they would go down the path of giving us crash bandicoot n sane trilogy and re7 as a throwback to the ps1 era. It's not like that was a big stretch the crash trilogy is like 3 years old and re7 is a ps hits title, even at eb games it's $24 new.

      • AngusD on 30/06/2020 - 10:48
        +3

        You're disappointed that out of the 4,000+ PS4 games on the PS Store, they didn't happen to pick the specific 2 that you were hoping for?

        • RocketSwitch on 30/06/2020 - 10:59
          -3

          Mate, use your brain for a second

          • AngusD on 30/06/2020 - 12:34

            @RocketSwitch: My brain is wondering why the 10th anniversary of PS+ would make a difference to what games they offer? They're already offering an extra one (3 this month instead of the usual 2). Why would offering Crash Bandicoot and RE7 as a throwback to the PS1 era make sense? It's the 10th anniversary of PS+, not the PS1 - perhaps they should actually give away a few PS Minis and a couple of themes as a throwback to the origins of PS+? And if you really want a throwback to the PS1 era, a Tomb Raider game is just as good an option as a RE or Crash Bandicoot game.

            • RocketSwitch on 30/06/2020 - 14:28

              @AngusD: They removed the free games you used to received for PS Vita and PS3, so offering an extra one leaves a bad taste in my mouth.

              You see, when you celebrate 10th anniversary of PS+, you would think you would want to make the occasion memorable right?

              Now, I agree with you that it is a matter of opinion, I haven't sent the survey out, but I'm sure NBA would be a poor choice, but that's my opinion.

              It's a 10th anniversary. I have no problem with the other games, I mean Erica wouldn't be my choice, but damn, they could have really used the event for something.

              Instead, for me, it's the event that gave NBA away, which if you had to argue, I will always remember, so maybe, after all, they did a good job here.

        • Reecey on 30/06/2020 - 12:49
          +1

          Not disappointed never played Erica or Rise of the Tomb Raider. I just have no interest in nba2k20 but like i said personal opinion and was hoping that it would be Crash Bandicoot this month due to the fourth one being announced, the trilogy remaster being 3 years old and the original games being a PS1 exclusive. If sony are going to make a song and dance about celebrating 10 years of PS Plus getting Crash Bandicoot carries more weight then an NBA game you get every year and the only changes you get are different rosters, slight graphic Improvements and more microtransactions.

          • AngusD on 30/06/2020 - 13:40

            @Reecey: Oh, I'm not arguing with you there. It's not a great month for me - I've got no interest in NBA 2KWhatever, already got Rise of the Tomb Raider, and never even heard of Erica (although I'll give that one a try). But that's the nature of the service - it's a lucky dip. Like you said, it's all a matter of opinion and taste, but that's the nature of a service like PS+ - some months are great (I'm still playing a lot of Dirt Rally 2 from a few months back), some months are meh. But if you ask different people, they'll give you different answers as to which month was which. I was really happy last year when they announced PES2019 was going to be on PS+, but a whole lot of other people were outraged for reasons I still don't really understand. Then, of course, I was disappointed when they changed it and a lot of other people seemed happy about it.

      They can't really go around just giving away games off the store without actually getting the OK from the publishers, though.

      A more realistic possibility might be that they do one of those PS+ double discounts sale where there are often some extremely good deals for PS+ subscribers. I wouldn't be surprised to something like that at some point during July.

  • pikapika on 30/06/2020 - 14:00

    Own 1, kinda interested in 1 and don't want 1. So, it's a "eh" kinda month for me.

      You can add them to your library without having to download them… As long as you have PS plus they will be available for download then.

    FYI to anyone downloading NBA2K20, there are currently 10+ free codes for their "MyTeam" mode including some rare, end-game players (essentially their pay to win create a team mode).
