PlayStation Plus monthly free games for March announced: Sifu, F1 23, Hello Neighbor 2 and more

The PlayStation Plus Games of the Month for March have been announced. The month’s lineup of free games includes racing simulator EA Sports F1 23, kung fu beat ’em up Sifu, online shooter Destiny 2: The Witch Queen and survival horror title Hello Neighbor 2. All four titles will be available to PS subscribers Plus in Essential, Extra and Deluxe/Premium levels from March 5. Members can add the monthly free games to their library until April 1st.

Sony has announced the PS Plus Match range for PlayStation blog Wednesday. PS Plus members will also receive a cosmetic pack containing outfits and weapon skins for the free-to-play shooter The Finals. The four free titles, once added to the game library, can be accessed as long as players have an active PS Plus subscription.

February’s free PS Plus games will expire from the service on March 4. These include Foamstars, Rollerdrome and Steelrising, all of which can still be added to the Extended Access library. Here’s a look at the PS Plus offerings for March:

Sifu

Death is not the end in Sifu. SloClap’s beat ’em up action title puts players in the shoes of an unnamed martial artist on a path of revenge. Players work their way through complex levels, defeating hordes of minions to reach the boss, battered and injured. Every time you die, your character ages. And you go through levels over and over until you’ve mastered them completely.

Sifu features graceful and stylish hand-to-hand combat based on well-timed blocks, parries, and dodges. With a variety of moves and environmental attacks to choose from, the game takes practice and courage. With a unique art style, an emotional soundtrack and scenery reminiscent of iconic kung fu movies, Sifu combines old-school beat ’em up gameplay with a cinematic presentation. The game will be available for PS4 and PS5.

EA Sports F1 23

F1 23, from racing veterans Codemasters, serves as the official game for the 2023 Formula 1 and Formula 2 championships, taking players through the highs and lows of a grueling Formula 1 season. F1 games are known for authentic experiences, and F1 23 does not is different. The racing simulator features the popular Breakpoint story mode first seen in F1 2021.

The game features the official F1 line-up of 20 drivers and 10 teams from the season. F1 23 also brings a new set of driving mechanics, a red flag feature and the ability to set race distances up to 35 percent. The game will be playable on both PS4 and PS5.

Hello neighbor 2

A sequel to 2021’s Hello Neighbor, this stealth horror title from Dynamic Pixels presents players with a new mystery. As an investigative journalist, you must find the missing children in Raven Brooks, a small town where everyone has a secret.

Players will be able to sneak around town and look for clues by exploring houses while slowly unraveling the mystery. Hello Neighbor 2 will also be available on both PS4 and PS5.

Destiny 2: The Witch Queen

March’s PS Plus lineup also includes Destiny 2: The Witch Queen, a major expansion for the base game available on PS4 and PS5. The expansion brings a new location, Savathûn’s Throne World, where players find themselves drawn into a new mystery.

The Witch Queen expansion could be a great way to revisit Destiny 2 before the release of The Final Shape expansion later this year, which will conclude the game’s “Saga of Light and Darkness.” Players will need to download Destiny 2, available for free on the PlayStation Store, to play The Witch Queen expansion.

Earlier this month, PlayStation also announced the list of titles arriving as part of the games catalog for PS Plus Extra and Deluxe/Premium members. February titles include Assassin’s Creed Valhalla, NFS Unbound, The Outer Worlds: Spacer’s Choice Edition, Tales of Arise and more.
