PlayStation Plus
Free Games in July 2018
With the recent release of Detroit: Become Human, Sony has opted to put Heavy Rain up for grabs in this month’s Plus offerings. If you played Beyond: Two Souls and didn’t think the story was quite as engaging as you’d expected, Heavy Rain might change your mind. It still suffers from weird plot holes and questionable design decisions, but it holds up quite well today, and the mystery is much more engaging than the weird sci-fi juju Beyond had to offer.
Action game fans will also be pleased to know that Absolver is available in July 2018 as well. The game suffered from some brutal latency issues at launch, but the melee combat is very fun to master, and there are a variety of martial art styles you can start with, including the iconic Wing Chun-like air style from the Ip Man movies.
Platformer and RPG fans should also get a lot of value out of Rayman 3 and Deception IV, but the real star of the show this month is definitely Zero Time Dilemma. This is a visual novel with some intense escape room puzzles and one of the most insane sci-fi stories you’ll ever experience. We recommend grabbing the first two Zero Escape games on PS4 or Vita (999 and Virtue’s Last Reward) before hopping into this one, though.
