PS Plus subscribers can claim three free games for the month of January 2022 on PS4 and PS5. However, some players had a nasty surprise when it came to the games offered.
The PlayStation Plus subscription allows you to play online, but also to collect a selection of games free of charge each month. These games are accessible in the library as long as the subscription is kept.é. January 4 to 1is February 2022, PS Plus subscribers get Persona 5 Strikers, DIRT 5 and Deep Rock Galactic. This selection of games is particularly varied with an action-RPG, a car racing game and a cooperative FPS.
However, these three games are not available to all players around the world. Some had the bad surprise to see that one of them had been replaced by an older and much less interesting game. It is not entirely unusual that the games offered by the PS Plus depend on the country. Indeed, Japan often receives other games. However, players were not notified of the change.
Persona 5 Strikers is not available to all PS Plus subscribers
On Reddit, the user “u / orochisan17″ declared that: ” I was really excited for this month, mainly because of Persona. But instead we got this (I live in the Middle East). I am very disappointed “. He shared the photo of the game offered by the PS Plus instead of Persona 5 Strikers. The game in question is How to Survive 2, a survival game in a post apocalyptic world in isometric view released in 2016.
How to Survive 2 is obviously not the same as Persona 5 Strikers. This one came out last year and got a great reception. Not considering Persona is one of the most popular JRPG franchises. The user did not specify in which country precisely he is located. However, other players have already encountered similar situations. One of them explained in particular that the horror game Outlast had been replaced by Goat Simulator in Saudi Arabia. By the way, one user thinks that the absence of Persona 5 Strikers is ” only for Saudi Arabia because we have Persona in Oman ».
Finally, the most annoying thing for these players is probably that they are not notified by Sony of the change in the games offered. We do not know if other countries are also affected by the absence of Persona 5 Strikers for the January games.
