The Bigger Game – Crash Bandicoot N. Sane Trilogy
PS Plus Free Games Predictions
While the offical list for the two free PS Plus games for August 2020 has yet to be released, we have some PS Plus free games predictions as to what those two games might be to tide you over in the meantime.
Usually a larger game headlines the list every month, and for August 2020 we suspect it will be the Crash Bandicoot N. Sane Trilogy from Vicarious Visions.
The N. Sane Trilogy is a collection of remasters of the original three Crash Bandicoot series first released in the 90s, including Crash Bandicoot, Cortex Strikes Back, and Warped.
Its success since its release in 2017 has inspired another Crash Bandicoot remaster of Crash Team Racing Nitro-Fueled in June 2019. And a brand new direct sequel Crash Bandicoot 4: It’s About Time is set to release as well in October 2020.
With a new game on the way, it makes sense for Sony to start considering offering the Crash remasters for free on PS Plus since the collection has been on the market now for over three years.
If we don’t see it next month, then suspect the N. Sane Trilogy on PS Plus sometime soon to hype up sales of the new sequel in October.
The Smaller Game – A Hat in Time
PS Plus Free Games Predictions
After the larger game, usually a smaller indie title makes the PS Plus list every month as well, and for August our prediction pick is A Hat in Time by developer Gears for Breakfast.
A Hat in Time is a platformer that is inspired stylistically by early Nintendo 64 platformers such as Super Mario 64 and Banjo-Kazooie. In it you play as Hat Kid who is trying to return home by collecting the Time Pieces to repower her spaceship.
It’s a super cute and very popular indie game that would be sure to please PS4 owners with approximately 25,000 overwhelmingly positive reviews on Steam.
A Hat in Time also released on PS4 back in 2017, so it’s been an customary amount of time for Sony to start considering it for PS Plus based on its indie choices in the past.
Make sure to check back with Twinfinite for Sony’s official reveal of the two PS Plus games on PS4 for August 2020 to see if any of our predictions were correct.
