It’s a pretty good month for free PS4 games if you’re hyped up for The Last of Us Part II (and somehow haven’t played the original), and/or have yet to get sucked into the excellent MLB The Show series.
Both games will be available for free for subscribers beginning on Tuesday, October 1st, 2019. Check out the announcement from the PlayStation Blog itself, with some info below.
PlayStation Plus members ? we have a really big month for the October monthly PS4 games lineup to keep you entertained this fall. As announced on State of Play, we?re including two major blockbuster hits from Worldwide Studios with The Last of Us Remastered and MLB The Show 19.
The Last of Us Remastered
In anticipation of the next chapter of Naughty Dog?s epic adventure in The Last of Us Part II, now is your time to jump into in The Last of Us Remastered. Whether you have already played the game and want to relive Joel and Ellie?s epic journey ? or experience it for the very first time, The Last of Us Remastered has you covered with both The Last of Us and The Last of Us: Left Behind.
The Last of Us takes place 20 years after a pandemic has radically changed civilization, where infected humans run wild and survivors kill each other for food, weapons ? whatever they can get their hands on. Joel, a violent survivor, is hired to smuggle a 14 year-old girl, Ellie, out of an oppressive military quarantine zone, but what starts as a small job soon transforms into a brutal journey across the U.S.
In The Last of Us: Left Behind, new light is shed on Ellie?s relationship with Riley, her best friend and sometime-mentor from a military boarding school they grew up in together. After disappearing for weeks, Riley returns with a surprising revelation on her whereabouts. Ellie and Riley sneak out of school for the last time, leading to a series of events that will forever change both of their lives.
We hope this epic adventure will keep you entertained right before the sequel hits store shelves. In case you missed it, check out all of the details on The Last of Us Part II that were announced during State of Play , including a release date of February 21, 2020. The Last of Us Part II is available now for pre-order, so mark your calendars!
