February’s Free PS Plus Games: BioShock: The Collection, The Sims 4, and Firewall Zero Hour

February’s loaded with not two, not three, but potentially up to five free PS Plus games! BioShock: The Collection contains three legendary first-person adventures, The Sims 4 gives you creative control over reality itself, Firewall Zero Hour offers engaging, online multiplayer* for PS VR owners**.

[Neonridr]

Awesome. I own Bioshock and Firewall, but great that they included a VR game again. Should help give a boost back to the player base for sure.

Solid month for those who don't have these games.

[Lighter9]

Lol. People disagreeing with free games. Classic N4G comment section.

[gamer7804]

Maybe those that don’t have or enjoy vr disagree with having a game they can’t use.

[Neonridr]

@gamer7804 - so they can enjoy the other two free games..

[Muzikguy]

It can seem crazy at times

[Ripsta7th]

its n4g what do uexpect
just mention the word xbox and u get bombarded with downvotes

[Army_of_Darkness]

@Ripsta. Let's test out your theory... I say Xbox will always be 3rd best.

On topic, great month for ps+ gamers!

[UltraNova]

I've bought the BioS collection for 9 euro at a sale. The sims? Not my kind of tea. Great to see VR offerings. All in all its a great month for people who don't have these games.

[Endyo]

I don't disagree with the above comment or anything, but it's not really reasonable to call these games "free" when you have to pay for the service to get them or play them when the service is canceled. I wouldn't call Game Pass games free, and it's essentially the same principle outside of the part where Game Pass can remove games from the service.

[KillBill]

@Neonridr - you are obviously missing the point of offering a game many (vast majority of PS gamers) can't even play versus offering a game that they can choose not to play. When you are used to getting at least 3 titles you can choose from but then get only 2 because the other offered up free game is only to a very small minority of users... that is where his (and others) concern is.

[darthv72]

@endyo... nobody calls gamepass game free. I think you mean gold games. And the only gold games that are free are the 360 ones. XBO games are like the + games, free for the life of your membership but MS made 360 games free free. If you cancel your gold you can still play the 360 games you acquired (obviously not the online component). And that applies to people who dl them on a 360 as well as an xbo.

[darthv72]

I too own bioshock collection but for XBO. My son will be pleased as he just got + last month and has been wanting to play the Bio games. This month is good for both of us, him on + and me on gold.

[sampsonon]

i love Firewall. great game for sure.

[TheGamez100]

Not bad, have beaten infinite but not 1&2. And I do have a psvr headset.

[Neonridr]

#1 is the best of the 3 IMO.

[jznrpg]

Agreed

[Muzikguy]

Easily the best of the 3

[mandingo]

Easily? Nah. 3 is incredible too

[FinalFantasyFanatic]

I have one and Infinite and I just bought 2 on Steam the other week, oh well, nice to have the collection on PS4 I guess.

[TGGJustin]

Basically getting 5 free games so pretty good to me. Firewall is one of the best PSVR titles too. Going to have to jump back into it with the surge of new players that it will have.

[sampsonon]

yeah, it's a great game. I hope this shines a light on it because the game deserves it for sure.

[theshredded]

Simply amazing and one of the best months recently.

[Majin-vegeta]

God damn Sony has been hitting it out of the park with PS+ for awhile

[Shiken]

They usually do at the end of the gen. PS3 was great, then the PS4 offerings were poor for years. Now at the wnd of the gen, the big guns are out.

PS5 being BC however will help this time around, as there are still plenty of great PS4 titles to offer for years to come.

[MrVux000]

For the last two months, not so much...

In December we got Titanfall 2, a game that is so often discounted sub 10$ that anyone who was interested in it would have got it by now. Monster Energy Supercross...yea.

In January we got Uncharted:Nathan Drake Collection, another one that is quite often discounted to 10$ and below. Also Goat Simulator...another yea.

Overall it was not that good, especially when you consider we don't get PS3 games anymore for PS plus.

[Lore]

Whoa.

[gold_drake]

fuuuuck, the bioshock collection? niiiiice. even sims 4 haha

[Mr Marvel]

Nice! I don’t have any of those.

[Terry_B]

Time for the pocorn thanks to this comment section ;-)

have all Bioshock games already on PC but sure..very nice. Sims 4 is a game I would never buy
but..as part of ps+ I'll try it out

[Rangerman1208]

Good lineup. Surprised by the PSVR addition. Hope Sony offers more PSVR goodies for PS Plus in the future.

[ocelot07]

Not got any of them. I would love to jump back into VR but I sold my controllers a few months ago as they where going for silly prices so I sold them. Now I can't find stock anywhere lol.

[Abnor_Mal]

I don't really care about the Bioshock collection, Sims4 is something I've never played, might be fun for an hour or less.

Firewall Zero I just learned from Apocalypse Shadow post the other day that it has a story mode, I guess I could play that for a while. Might try the MP once with randoms since none of my friends own a PSVR.

[Abnor_Mal]

I was informed by Apocalypse Shadow that I made an error when I say Firewall Zero has a single player mode, when I reality it only a practice mode with bots.

Off topic, banning people for saying that they played a majority of a certain type of game last year. Yet go on to defend why they mentioned a different console in a PlayStation focused article. Gotta love N4G.

[TheEnigma313]

not bad at all. Just put Game with Gold to shame this month.

[TGGJustin]

It's pretty much been doing that every month since Game Pass became a thing. You rarely see big name titles on GWG anymore.

[Terry_B]

Every Month..since years.

[darthv72]

That is a matter of perspective but some would agree while others disagree.

[TheEnigma313]

contrarians

[Smokehouse]

Wow good month.

[Luc20]

Great games on ps plus in Feb. Was tempted to buy bioshock collection when it was on sale recently! Glad I didn't. Does anyone know if it's ps4 pro enchanted?

[Neonridr]

I don't know about it being enchanted, but there are no enhanced features for use on the Pro minus the boost mode which helps the framerate out a little.

[Luc20]

Lol trying to work and type! 😂

[Traecy]

No it's not but they say using boost mode helps.

[Orionsangel]

Even though I own the Bioshock Collection and The Sims 4 on PC. I gotta admire what Sony is offering here. Heck maybe I'll replay them on PS4 just because I never did. I certainly never played that Firewall game. First time I'm hearing about.

[l33t_haxx0r]

yay sims

[MrVux000]

Bioshock alone is worth it...finaly a good selection of games after a while.

[Orionsangel]

It even brings all the DLC. Crazy.

[Relientk77]

Damn good lineup

[Imortus_san]

Good month.

[Vizigoth04]

I have these one PS3 BioShock anyway. I’ll hook it up for the PS4 though!

[badboyz09]

Sims No thanks

[monkey602]

I actually wanted the Bioshock collection so this is great

[PhoenixUp]

Nice

[Silly gameAr]

Damn. Now that's a line up.

[badz149]

WOW Sony gun blazing with PS+ this year so far.

[ReignMan_27]

Never played any of the Bioshock games last gen, but bought the Collection sometime a while back when it was on sale on the PS Store because I've heard nothing but good things about the series. I have yet to play it because of my backlog. Maybe I should take this as a sign and stop putting it off

[BoredDemon]

yes holy shit, really wanted to get the collection but got Horizon this month instead (so late I know...)

[bluefox755]

Anyone see the Sims 5 trailer? Seemed to go under the radar, but it looks interesting, it seems to take a far more realistic art style approach than previous games.

[bluefox755]

I mean, GwG doesn't even compare at this point.

[badz149]

MS don't care about GwG anymore. it's all about GAMEPASS right now.

[Xavi4K]

strong month

[boing1]

I was contemplating on buying firewall and now I don't have to. Awesome!

[Traecy]

The Sims I have no interest in but 3 BioShock games is pretty cool though I've played them last gen including finally adding VR games to PS+.

[badz149]

what do you mean "finally"? the have given VR games last year too. just not every month

[isarai]

Hmm, Never played Bioshosck 1&2 and had my eye on Firewall for a while now, pretty good month for me actually. i really wish they would be more consistent about including VR games though.

[Mr_Luke]

YESSSS!!!!! Can't care less about The sims 4 but the other 2... wow!! Great month for me! :D

[Profchaos]

I'm so excited to see firewall on the list I've owned it since launch but this will help bring people into the game.

[Realms]

Sony should give a PSVR game with PS plus as a standard, I don't own PSVR but it would be a huge incentive to buy one if I knew I had a bunch of games waiting for me when I did.

[nyctophilia13]

Agreed. Every month should have some type of PSVR game/experience in addition to the two games.

[Redemption-64]

Fuck, I just purchased Bioshock last month

[Nacho_Z]

Good month for me, been contemplating the Bioshock collection for a while, the first game is so good that even my wife likes it. I'd also like a look at The Sims 4, I heard it wasn't great and I'm not sure about games like that with a controller but I played quite a bit of Sims 3 on PC.

[HaVoK308]

Meh

[MoonConquistador]

Eh?

[galmi]

not bad

[Shezgear]

I was actually planning to get sims 4 on ps4 so that is great! Also having bioshock installed is bonus for me. I have the collection but still great!

[ajax17]

Nice. I've been wanting to give these remasters a try

[GameStallion]

They’re giving away PS3 era games? Great, thanks Sony. Not worth it this month.

[MoonConquistador]

You're a hard one to please ain't ya?

That's a great selection of games and more than worth the subscription price

[GameStallion]

I guess everyone has their own likes/ dislikes. And yes, I am hard to please and have high standards. We all should. That is the best way to keep these gaming companies consumer friendly. Really though, I just naturally feel that this month isn’t that great. I would be happy if I didn’t already own the Bioshock collection, but I do. Think I got it on the PS Store for like $9.99 on sale like two years ago. Plus, I played those games last gen.

[MoonConquistador]

No mate, we all shouldn't be more like you. There's a difference between having high standards (which you aren't displaying btw), having high expectations, and not being able to see what you are getting because you're focussing too much on what you feel you're missing out on.

I already have Firewall and Bioshock infinite (also given on PS+). But just because I have 2 of the 5 games offered doesn't diminish the fact that this is a great selection of games.

I'm happier after this announcement than you appear to be. A slight tweak to your way of thinking and you could share in that happiness too.

[Silly gameAr]

I own all 3 of the Bioshock games on the PS3, and already have Sims 4, but you won't see me try to act high and mighty because I've played the games before, and insult every one like they have low standards for being excited to be getting good games. That's a childish and disgusting way to act.

[Youngindy21]

I already own Firewall, but I definitely might try out the Bioshock collection.

[SolidGamerX]

Nice!

[S2Killinit]

FIREWALL! This is great.

[The7Reaper]

Sweet, having never played a Bioshock game I was going to pull the trigger and buy the collection this Friday so definitely hyped about this.

Sony seems to like being nice for the free games in February, last year it was Hitman and For Honor

[supes_24]

This is amazing for me. I’ve always wanted to play the Bioshock games, give Sims a try and Firewall. This is an amazing month IMO

[StormLegend]

Nice.

[Babadook7]

Firewall! I haven't played it yet.

[sagapo]

Played Bioshock games on PC and I don’t own a VR set, so kinda meh for me. Oh well, time to reduce my backlog then ;)

[PhoenixUp]

I wish Bioshock Collection included Bioshock 2’s multiplayer

[BrainSyphoned]

Bait my hook for PSVR2 please.

[mixelon]

Already have sims4 on pc but interested in the PS4 version just to see how the heck they’ve made it controllable without keyboard and mouse. :D

Great month!

[GOULDYBOBS]

Can someone explain the use of the term "free". I was under the impression this was a paid subscription service

[Lon3wolf]

Bioshock only for me (Sims no thanks) and I do not have VR, so Feb for me across Plus and Gold is Bioshock and Call of Cthulhu I really can't complain.

[taurul]

Uhuu! Great games! I was really looking to buy the collection even if I played them on PS3 an also Firewall so it's a great month for me. Gj Sony!
