After Call of Duty: WW II has already been officially confirmed as one of the monthly PS Plus free games for PS4 in June 2020, a leak is now making the rounds. This leak claims to know the second PS Plus game even before the official announcement. How true is this?
Update 28.05.: With a one-day delay, Sony has now officially announced the second PS Plus game for June. And the leak was correct. Star Wars Battlefront II is included. More about this here: PS Plus June 2020: Strong Month for Shooter Fans – 2 Big Titles Coming
The first PS Plus game for June is already confirmed: Today, Sony will officially announce the monthly PS Plus free games for June 2020 around 5:30 PM.
One game is already confirmed – namely Call of Duty: World War 2. PlayStation already announced this via its official Twitter account on 25.05. However, not only did the announcement occur earlier than usual, but CoD: WWII is already available for free to all subscribers in the PS Store – a week earlier than usual.
By the way, if you were lucky and started the download in time yesterday, you might still snag 1,100 CoD points for free, which you can then spend in Warzone or CoD: Modern Warfare. More about this here: PS Plus gives away points for CoD MW & Warzone, but only if you were quick enough.
Will a Star Wars title be the second free game for PS Plus in June?
What’s the deal with the leak? Recently, the relatively small channel PlayStation Gaming uploaded a new video. It appears to be a teaser promoting the Days of Play and also hints at the PS Plus games for June.
Which game is mentioned in the leak? The clip features both Call of Duty: WW 2 and the shooter Star Wars Battlefront II – much to the delight of many Star Wars fans.
In addition to a comprehensive multiplayer mode, the game also offers an impressive story for single-player fans. If the leak turns out to be true, many players are expected to be very excited.
Thus, there would be 2 major shooters available for free with PS Plus in June.
How likely is the leak? Since this is a leak, you should treat the presumed information with caution until the official presentation this evening.
However, even though the channel is relatively small – the video appears authentic and official. If it were a hoax, the creator would have gone to great lengths for a short “joke.” It takes significantly more work to fake a video than just an image or a screenshot.
So it is quite possible that the leak is accurate. And we won’t have to wait much longer. Today around 5:30 PM German time, Sony should officially announce the entire PS Plus lineup for June 2020.
Could there still be 2 games despite the early Call of Duty: WW II? The leaked video only shows two games. However, some believe it’s possible that Call of Duty: WW II is a bonus and that 2 more games could be announced today.
Normally, PS Plus offers 2 monthly free games for the PlayStation 4. However, there have been months where bonus games were also provided, for example, in February 2020. There, PS Plus subscribers received The Sims 4 and the BioShock Collection (which includes 3 games), as well as the VR shooter Firewall Zero Hour.
Whether Call of Duty was just a bonus or whether the 2 games shown in the video are actually the lineup will be officially revealed shortly.
By the way, until next week you can still secure the free titles for May with PS Plus: PS Plus May 2020: Grab 2 of the best simulations for PS4 now.
