A fresh leak is currently causing quite a stir on Reddit and social media. The new monthly PS Plus free games for March 2020 are apparently already visible there. Included is one of the best PS4 exclusives. What’s the story?
Update – 5:30 PM: The leak has been confirmed. Shadow of the Colossus and Sonic Forces will indeed be the two new free games in March 2020. Detailed information about these new free PS Plus games can be found in this new article: PS Plus gives you one of the best PS4 exclusive games of all time in March
Already information about PS Plus? The free monthly PS Plus games for March 2020 are actually not officially announced until this evening. However, a new leak apparently offers a glimpse of which PS4 games PS Plus members can expect starting next Wednesday.
Note: These are not officially confirmed details. So treat it with a dose of caution and skepticism until the official announcement of the games.
Where does the leak come from? The leak comes in the form of an officially looking advertisement banner, which has apparently surfaced on several Polish sites today and was captured by some users on image.
Are these the free PS Plus games for March 2020? The banner clearly shows 2 games that should be available as part of PS Plus starting on March 3:
- the PS4 exclusive “Shadow of the Colossus” – a remake of the critically acclaimed action-adventure from 2005
- and “Sonic Forces” – a platformer revolving around the iconic hedgehog Sonic
How reliable is the leak? The advertisement banner looks authentic and official in the eyes of many users. Additionally, this wouldn’t be the first time that a Polish site has leaked the PS Plus free games in advance.
Nevertheless, it cannot be said with certainty at this time. There have also been well-made fakes regarding PS Plus before. So we will have definitive clarity later this evening.
One of the best PS4 exclusives is on the way: Should the leak prove to be true, then PS Plus members can look forward to one of the best PS4 exclusives available to date.
Because the action-adventure Shadow of the Colossus is praised highly by numerous critics and players alike. For many, it is considered a true hidden gem for adventure fans and one of the best exclusive titles for Sony’s current console generation. For some, even one of the best PS4 games overall.
And even though the information has not been confirmed yet, Shadow of the Colossus is already being celebrated on Reddit. Many would be thrilled if the game were indeed available for free to PS Plus subscribers in March 2020.
On Metacritic, the game is rated strongly at 91%. In the PS Store, Shadow of the Colossus has 4.5 out of 5 stars based on over 3,500 votes.
Until we actually know whether the current leak is correct and until the new games are available on March 3, you can still grab the PS Plus games from February:
