PlayStation Plus July 2020: Sony celebrates 10 years with 3 free games


This month marks the tenth anniversary of the launch of PlayStation Plus on PS3, ushering in paid multiplayer services and monthly downloadable games for subscribers. To celebrate, the July 2020 deals are as strong as last month, with NBA 2K20 and Rise of the Tomb Raider headlining. Additionally, Sony will launch a free theme on the PS Store later this week and host a free online multiplayer weekend starting at midnight (local time) on July 4 and running through July 5, allowing you to try online multiplayer without subscription.

Rise of the Tomb Raider was initially released as an exclusive on Xbox One, but it came to PS4 a year later as the 20th anniversary celebration with additional content. It is the second in the Crystal Dynamic reboot trilogy, picking up on Lara Croft as she becomes more comfortable with her grave attack adventures. Taking place in a snowy Siberia, the game manages to look surprising today, and is fondly remembered as the strongest of the three in the series.

In our review of the 8/10 Rise of the Tomb Raider, critic Mike Mahardy wrote: “Even now, playing it a year after it was originally defeated is hard to put down. The Siberian desert is as detailed and beautiful as it is. En Xbox One, and I also didn’t notice much difference in the nuances of the characters. “

NBA 2K20 is the newest installment in the annual basketball series, making it a great addition to the lineup as we are still a few months away from its replacement. NBA 2K20 received harsh criticism at launch for its reliance on microtransactions and how deeply it permeates the game, but the core of basketball action on the court remains as gripping as ever.

6473377 – PlayStation Plus Cast Story

Erica is the third offering for PS Plus in July and should not be overlooked. Originally designed around Sony’s PlayLink (which would allow players to control games with their smartphones, such as Jackbox Party Packs), Erica is a narrative adventure game that is more like a movie with less player interaction. However, it is an exciting story, with a haunting soundtrack to boot.

In our review of 8/10 for Erica, critic Funké Joseph wrote: “Her cryptic tone is transmitted through audio, images, and writing; she never lets you relax. Sometimes weird controls shake you up, but there’s a great deal countless attractive threads to follow, and it’s a pleasure to be able to shape your own adventure. Using a combination of sharp cinematography and FMV-specific gameplay mechanics, Erica never stops hooking you into her haunting and mysterious world. “
