PlayStation Plus June Lineup Offers Nice Variety for PS4 and PS5

Written by Brandon Hofer on May 30, 2021

News: Three games are being given to PS Plus members from three different genres offering up a good variety this month.

June has almost arrived and that means a couple of things. For starters, it is about to get really, really hot where I live. More importantly for our audience though, that means more free games for PlayStation Plus members beginning this week. There appear to be three games being offered for the month of June with each one a bit different representing some nice variety.

The games that are a part of PlayStation Plus in June include the following:

Operation Tango - PS5 version only

Team up to save the world in this cooperative spy adventure, challenging you and a friend to join up online to complete dangerous missions across the globe in a high-tech near-future world. Combine skill sets from different points of view – playing either Hacker or Agent – to overcome asymmetrical challenges, working in tandem with only your voice to link you. Teamwork is crucial, and communication is key! Note: Operation: Tango requires both players to have access to a working microphone.

Virtua Fighter 5 Ultimate Showdown - PS4

Sega’s iconic one-on-one battler gets remade for a new generation by Yakuza and Judgment developer Ryu Ga Gotoku Studio. This console exclusively debuts on PlayStation Plus, allowing both VF veterans and newcomers to experience the intense martial arts combat, deep strategy, and intricately balanced gameplay of the groundbreaking 3D fighter in stunning HD. New online features – like custom tournaments supporting up to 16 players and live spectating – join classic modes like Rank Match, Arcade, and VF5’s famously robust Training to deliver the definitive Virtua Fighter experience.

The game will not only be available on PlayStation Plus for about two months – June and July – but it’ll also be releasing on PlayStation Now in June. PlayStation Plus members can enter Virtua Fighter 5’s arenas starting Tuesday, June 1.

Star Wars :Squadrons

Master the art of starfighter combat in frenetic multiplayer space dogfights, and learn what it means to be a pilot in a Star Wars single-player story set after the events of Return of the Jedi and seen from alternating perspectives of two factions. The New Republic fights for freedom. The Empire demands order. Take control of iconic craft such as the X-wing and TIE fighter, customize loadouts and cosmetics, divert power between weapons, shields and engines while immersing yourself in the cockpit. You’ll also have the option to play the entirety of the game in virtual reality on PS VR.

Keep in mind that as these new games are arriving, other games are leaving. You have until Monday, May 31, to download Battlefield V, Stranded Deep, and Wreckfest: Drive Hard.
