November PlayStation Plus games include Bugsnax for PS5

The November PlayStation Plus games will include the first PlayStation 5 game in the form of Bugsnax.

The PS5 version of Young Horses’ first-person adventure game will be free to download for PS Plus subscribers who own the next-gen console starting on November 12th until January 4th, 2021.

In essence, this means that if you have a PS Plus membership and purchase a PS5 on November 12th when the console launches, you’ll essentially have two new games to play right off the bat, as Astro’s Playroom comes pre-downloaded on the next-gen console.

PlayStation 4 PS Plus subscribers will also get some love in the form of Middle-earth: Shadow of War and Hollow Knight: Voidheart Edition. Both will be available for download from November 3rd to the end of the month. These games will also be available to download for PS5.

Along with this announcement, Sony detailed every game launching with the PS Plus Collection, which are backwards-compatible PS4 titles that will all be available for PS5-owning PS Plus members at no additional cost. Sony-published offerings include Bloodborne, Days Gone, Detroit: Become Human, God of War, Infamous Second Son, Ratchet & Clank, The Last Guardian, The Last of Us Remastered, Until Dawn, and Uncharted 4: A Thief’s End. Third-party titles include Batman: Arkham Knight, Battlefield 1, Call of Duty: Black Ops III – Zombies Chronicles Edition, Crash Bandicoot: N. Sane Trilogy, Fallout 4, Final Fantasy XV Royal Edition, Monster Hunter: World, Mortal Kombat X, Persona 5, and Resident Evil 7 biohazard.

The PlayStation 5 launch is only a couple of weeks away now. If you want to get a preview of Astro’s Playroom and the new DualSense controller’s features, check out the conversation between our editors, Mollie and Josh, discussing their first impressions.
