PS Pluswill receive three new games on June 7, which will then be available until July 5. These include God of War, Naruto to Boruto: Shinobi Striker, andNickelodeon All-Star Brawl. ReleasingGod of Warwhen many are heavily anticipating its sequel,God of War: Ragnarok, is a smart move. It’s a strong lead-in ahead of the PS Plus Extra and Premium tiers as well.
Meanwhile,Naruto to Boruto: Shinobi Strikeris an online multiplayer game based on the beloved anime, featuring 4v4 battles. It’s the firstNarutogame to allow character creation and takes place during the Chunin Examswhen Naruto is Hokage. Overall, it should be noted that the game has a “weak” OpenCritic rating, with a top critic average of 64.
Nickelodeon All-Star Brawlis another multiplayer game, this time in a closer vein toSuper Smash Bros. Ultimate. It features characters fromseveral shows likeSpongeBob SquarePants, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, The Loud House, Invader Zim, Danny Phantom, andAvatar: The Last Airbender. It features a similar rating toNaruto to Boruto, with a top critic average of 65 on OpenCritic.
Of course, if anyone has yet to claim thePS Plus free games for May 2022, they will have until the new games release to do so.
