The Smaller Game – Steven Universe: Save the Light
After the bigger AAA game, we usually see a smaller indie title offered on PS Plus as well. And for November 2019, Steven Universe: Save the Light is looking like a likely contender.
Fans of the Steven Universe series from Cartoon Network might have noticed a lot of news has released about the show recently.
A new feature-length movie released on Sept. 2, and during NYCC, show creator Rebecca Sugar announced a new and final epilogue season entitled Steven Universe Future will begin soon. A new title sequence was also revealed, featuring a short rendition of a song from the Steven Universe movie.
The epilogue season will take place after the events of the movie, which itself featured a time skip of two years after the completion of the previous season five finale of the show.
With all this news in mind, it’s not hard to imagine the 2017 RPG title Steven Universe: Save the Light might be offered for free on PS Plus sometime soon.
Save the Light released very early on in season five of the show. It features 14 year-old Steven, compared to the current 16 year-old version of the character.
Many characters fusions that were not revealed before October 2017 are understandably not featured in the game, and many characters have changed drastically with the final season running from May 2017 until January 2019.
Therefore, even though the plot of Save the Light comes from Rebecca Sugar herself and is considered canon alongside the show, fans might not be as likely to pick up the game moving forward to Steven Universe Future.
Offering it for free soon on PS Plus would be best, before the plot of the game becomes too dated for players to consider playing it when so much has happened on the show since its release.
Make sure to check back in the next couple weeks for the official PS Plus lineup for November 2019 once it is revealed by Sony.
