  TLOU Remastered was already on PS+ a while back. Not sure if they'd give it away again?
  - maverickjohn on 18/03/2021 - 09:59
    
    They did with ratchet and clank
    - MiscOzB on 18/03/2021 - 10:28
      
      Also Uncharted: The Nathan Drake Collection
  - henrikoez on 26/03/2021 - 16:17
    
    The Witness was part of PS+ monthly games too.
- netsurfer on 18/03/2021 - 14:46
  
  Likely 2 more first party exclusives to give away.
  
  The Last of Us Remastered is a likely because I bought it, knowing my luck, there is a good chance it will be given away for free. Horizon Zero Dawn Complete Edition… I bought it before… and now it is going to be free…
Jengel on 18/03/2021 - 09:51

Really wanted to play Subnautica and Abzu, they look like interesting games!
Already finished The Witness and HZD but both were excellent games too. And Gungeon will be fun to play in console instead, might be easier too
augernised on 18/03/2021 - 10:08

Just since noone has mentioned how good Thumper is - its very good. Basically an on rails rhythm game with a really trippy & psychedelic soundtrack/visual experience. Also gets very challenging

Im past my recreational drug phase but if you like a bit of devils lettuce this games an experience let me tell ya
- Rimzi on 18/03/2021 - 11:17
  
  Incredible with headphones & almost terrifying at some stages. Didn’t they call it a rhythm horror game?
[Deactivated] on 18/03/2021 - 12:06

Sony is really bringing it with the freebies. Far better than the crappy rom rental scheme Nintendo have.

  Nintendo is so bizarre. They have most of the best exclusives and one of the most fun hardware setups (Switch/3DS).
  
  But they just seem to hate online and digital with a passion.
  
  Not letting people review games?
  
  Not banning shovelware or moderating the store at all?
  
  The dismal experience that is Nintendo Online and having to pay for it (I've paid exactly once, when I bought the 2-in-1 voucher).
The Krat0s on 18/03/2021 - 12:20

Damn Bought Horizon Zero Dawn on the last sale. Half way through.. Hmm might as well finish before the freebie Starts

Loved this game, one of the very best last gen. I sold it off before the DLC.

Does anyone know if I'll be able to play the DLC component without a save file?

I don't like the way the PSN doesn't allow you to "buy" a game if you've collected the PS+ version, which is tied to your subscription. These is apparently an actual freebie which doesn't expire once claimed. But you can't replace the PS+ copy if you already claimed it there.

    Is this confirmed as on the game page it says
    
    "Download before 23 April 04:00 BST".
    
    Which makes it sound like you need to download before then or you won't be able to. Hopefully just poorly worded.
Megumin on 26/03/2021 - 14:33

Thanks! Added them all :D

Remember you can use the PS App on your smartphone to claim and/or download directly to PS5 if linked and on rest mode.

  You can claim it through desktop browser too

  Using the PS App is definitely the way! The website was buggy as hell when I tried last.

Query - do we need to download the game to keep it as it specifically says - As part of our Play at Home campaign, you can download and keep these games for free. Download from 26 March 2pm AEDT to 23 April 5pm AEDT

  Do we need to download the game to keep it
  
  No.
  
  I don't own a Playstation, but after 'purchasing' with the link it now shows up in my library, same as all the other freebies. Fundamentally, it's the same process as Games with Gold (press button to add licence to account). Once it's there it's ours.
BjornMorrison on 20/04/2021 - 16:38

How do we boost this post back up so people see it a month after it was posted, for today's free game?
- Switchblade88 on 20/04/2021 - 16:46

I was too hasty. Mods are all over it: will be posted on the front page a bunch of times (2021-04-20 12:30PM; 2021-04-20 03:00PM; 2021-04-20 08:00PM and 2021-04-20 11:50PM), and was in the newsletter today. My bad.

  It doesn't work from me either, when I use the link above and go to HZD page directly.
