All PS Plus Subscribers Can Play Lies of P and Other Games All August Long

Subscribers can also play this zombie survival game or an anime fighting game.

Lies of P is an award-winning game that reimagines the story of Pinocchio as a soulslike action role-playing game set in a grimy world overrun by killer mechanical puppets. And all PlayStation Plus subscribers can play that award-winning game, and others, at no additional cost now.

PlayStation Plus is Sony’s version of Xbox Game Pass, and it offers subscribers a large, constantly expanding library of games. Subscribers can choose from the Essential, Extra and Premium tiers, which each have unique perks and benefits. The plans start at $10 a month, and each tier gives subscribers access to monthly games and rewards.

Here are the games all PS Plus subscribers can play throughout August. You can also check out the games Sony added to the PS Plus Game Catalog in July, including Cyberpunk 2077.

Lies of P

This is a macabre soulslike game akin to Bloodborne and based on Carlo Collodi’s classic tale, The Adventures of Pinocchio. Puppets have torn the city of Krat apart, and you play as Pinocchio as he searches for Geppetto in the grisly, oil-stained city. You’ll encounter traps, twisted contraptions and maniacal humans in your search throughout the city, and maybe you’ll find what it means to be human along the way.

DayZ

Can you survive the zombie apocalypse? DayZ places you and dozens of other players into a dense 163 square-kilometer (about 63 square-mile) map filled with zombies and materials you’ll need to last. And with no checkpoints or saves, you’ll need to work together; otherwise, you’ll have to start all over.

My Hero One’s Justice 2

This over-the-top fighting game is the sequel to the arena fighting game My Hero One’s Justice. In this game, you can fight as — or against — many of the characters from the popular anime series My Hero Academia, including All Might, Endeavor and Fat Gum. You’ll use your characters’ Quirks — or unique powers — to overcome your opponent’s abilities and win these epic clashes.

For more on PlayStation Plus, here’s what to know about the service and a rundown of PS Plus Extra and Premium games added in July. You can also check out the latest and upcoming games on Xbox Game Pass and Apple Arcade.
