PlayStation Plus free game is perfect if you crave Starfield on PS5

If you’re still salty about Starfield not coming to PlayStation platforms anytime soon, PlayStation Plus has a game you might find interesting.

In my personal experience, PlayStation Plus has been a godsend at getting me to try games I wouldn’t have if I had to buy them outright. Being able to quickly download a game and play a few hours to determine if it’s for me or not has led to the discovery of some of my new favourite games, like Sifu, which was recently added as part of March’s free Essential game line-up.

Check out Sifu below, it’s an action-packed fighter for players who are masters of patience

Another game I might not have played if not for PlayStation Plus is Journey To The Savage Planet: Employee Of The Month. For those who haven’t played it’s a first-person shooter and platforming game set on a mysterious, alien world full of bizarre creatures.

The best way I can describe it is if Starfield and No Man’s Sky had a baby, and that baby was raised by High On Life, that’s what Journey To The Savage Planet is like. It’s very quirky, very colourful and full of character.

It’s perfect for those PlayStation fans who are disappointed Starfield hasn’t released on the PlayStation 5 yet, though rumours still insider information is still hinting at a port coming later this year. Of course this needs to be taken with a grain of salt until it’s confirmed by Xbox and/or Bethesda, but given four Xbox-exclusive games have already made their way over to Sony’s platform, it’s entirely impossible Starfield won’t follow one day.

In the meantime though, play Journey To The Savage Planet, it’s a lot of fun and there’s no harm in trying it if you’re already subscribed to PlayStation Plus.
