The Highlights
There are plenty of highlights from the December 2024 PlayStation Plus Extra and Premium lineup. Sonic Frontiers is arguably the most beloved. It features Sonic in a more open environment, letting you complete puzzles and platforming segments along the way. You’re beating up blockbuster-like bosses as you attempt to save Sonic’s friends in a dramatic story. The 2022 game received a 4/5 rating from Hardcore Gamer.
PlayStation Plus Premium also has the first Sly Cooper again, completing the initial PS2 platformer trilogy.
“The different islands are all expansive with a ton of places to explore and routes to get there, some less obvious than others,” saidour review. “It feels weird to appreciate the story in a Sonic game, but this one is well presented with excellent voice acting that sells the dialogue, and the music can stand with the best of the series.”
The indie highlight is arguably A Space for the Unbound, which is set in the late 90s rural Indonesia. The narrative surrounds a girl who has supernatural powers, and according to thePlayStation Blog, the story is about “overcoming anxiety [and] depression.”
“Overall,A Space For The Unboundis a powerful narrative adventure title,” said our sister siteScreenRantin its eight out of ten review. “Its story is a strong driving force thanks to its characters and overarching mystery, and although its gameplay is relatively straightforward the Space Dive mechanic freshens things up nicely.”
