In June, the game also received an Overture expansion, which serves as a prequel to the main storyline. Both PS4 and PS5 players will be able to dive into this dark adventure as part of their PS Plus subscription.

DayZ

Survival fans can look forward to DayZ, the multiplayer open-world title set during a deadly zombie outbreak. Originally a mod for Arma 2, DayZ drops up to 60 players into a post-apocalyptic map where they must scavenge food, weapons, medicine, and gear to stay alive.

If you die, you lose everything and have to start over. The game also includes mechanics like cooking, hunting, and driving, adding realism to the gameplay. DayZ is available on PS4 and playable on PS5 through backward compatibility.

My Hero One’s Justice 2

The final title in the PS Plus August lineup is My Hero One’s Justice 2, a fast-paced arena fighting game from Bandai Namco. The game is based on the My Hero Academia anime. It includes a roster of beloved characters and builds on the 2018 original with new moves and story arcs. It’s a must-play for fans of the manga and anime series, and will be available on PS4.

Extra Bonus: Free Avatars

Sony is also giving out free avatars from various popular titles to PS Plus members this month. Meanwhile, July’s games – Diablo IV, The King of Fighters XV, and Jusant – will remain available until August 4.
