PlayStation Plus free games 2016: triple-A titles rumored to feature next month

Playstation Europe

It is still too early for Sony to come out with next month's list for its PS Plus free games program. However, some observers are expecting that triple-A titles will be part of the June list.

According to ThisGenGaming, while it is mostly classics that Sony publishes for its monthly PS Plus free games download, the list is known to add some triple-A titles from time to time. For next month, the industry follower predicts that some major classics will be available for PS Plus members to download.

Topping the list is "Resident Evil: HD Remaster." Having this classic as part of the free games is one way for Capcom to entice players to relive the "Resident Evil" experience. In addition, this will pave the way for other franchise installments, since publisher Capcom is said to be in the final stages of remastering "Resident Evil 2." Meanwhile, having a classic "Resident Evil" game as a recent addition in game libraries will also build the hype for an expected "Resident Evil 7" announcement at next month's E3.

Meanwhile, Vine Report surmises that the original "Watch Dogs" may be part of the June list for the PS Plus program. Reportedly, it has already been revealed by developer Ubisoft that a sequel is in the works. Having the original "Watch Dogs" will serve as a refresh point for hardcore fans, reliving the events in the original game in preparation for "Watch Dogs 2."

Although Sony has yet to confirm which games will make it to the June roster, one or two triple-A titles will go a long way toward establishing the PS Plus program over its competitor. According to The  Bitbag, in terms of games lists, the roster in Microsoft's Games with Gold is offering a wider range than the current lineup in the PS Plus program.
