Looking for new multiplayer games to try out this weekend? Check out these three options on PS Plus.
While we love a great single-player game, we’re always always down for a great multiplayer experience — and there’s no shortage of ways to get those these days. Many of the most popular multiplayer games are free-to-play, which drastically lowers the barrier of entry for new players. Some are still paid, though, and you might not know whether the monetary investment into a game is worth it in the edge case that your friend group doesn’t like it. Thankfully, many of these full-price multiplayer games are available for no additional cost through PlayStation Plus Extra.
Heading into the weekend, I want to highlight three of those games. The first is an intense 5v5 competitive shooter from Ubisoft that emphasizes environmental destruction and tactical play. Next is the most successful asynchronous multiplayer game in the horror genre, where players must avoid a powerful killer as weak survivors. Finally, there’s a colorful cooperative shooter available via PS Plus Essential this month that everyone reading this should redeem if they can.Rainbow Six Siege
While XDefiant is the new hotness when it comes to first-person shooter games from Ubisoft, Rainbow Six Siege is still immensely popular eight and a half years after its initial release. It’s a 5v5 competitive shooter in which each player controls an operator who has access to special weapons and gadgets. From there, it’s up to the defending team to set up traps properly and play well in order to fend off an attacking team trying to kill them all.
