Bugsnax free at launch on PS5 for PS Plus members + Launch Trailer

John Murphy - "Plus, some news about the Trophies! We also wanted to provide some insight for the Trophy hunters out there: Bugsnax will have standalone Trophy lists for both PS5 and PS4, which means… you get double the fun, and double the Trophies! We’re also looking into supporting save transfers from your PS4 to your PS5, which would be added in a future update."

*PS5 console only. Benefit not applicable for Bugsnax on PS4. Bugsnax on PS5 is available to play in U.S., Japan, Canada, Mexico, Australia, New Zealand, and South Korea on 11/12, and available to play everywhere else on 11/19.

Another great move from Sony. Well done. Very excited to add this game to my list. I want to play it, but at launch I will have so many games to play first. So it will have to wait, but I'm totally going to play this one

NeoGamer2321644d ago

I wouldn't describe this as a great move.... Any free game is a good move...

Giving PS5 gamers a FREE upgrade for the last gen Spider-man to 60 fps, full 4K, and full ray tracing would've been a great move.

Giving people a game for free that could've been built on the PS2 or PS3 is not a great move.

lukasmain1644d ago

You just contradicted yourself in the one post...

In regards to Sony giving a game away for Free

- I wouldn't describe this as a great move
- Any free game is a good move

How about you just shutup and maybe you'll stop embarrassing yourself.

"That was a great touchdown that won the game last night"

Both will probably make the "Plays of the Day". Which one do you think would has a better shot at making the plays of the week, month, or year?

Jin_Sakai1644d ago (Edited 1644d ago )

Talkin ‘bout Bugsnax! I’ll definitely give it a go.

TGGJustin1644d ago

Yeah I've been calling this. I thought either this or The Pathless would be on there and after that one was ruled out I knew it had to be Bugsnax. Insane value on PS+ in November.

-Ghost1644d ago

Agreed! New gamers and those who never got a chance to play these games are in for a treat this November :)

Relientk771644d ago

I like how for just buying a PS5, I'm getting both Astros Playroom and Bugsnax. That's awesome

RickRoland1644d ago

And Destruction Allstars in February

I played a bit of this on PS5 at launch and was really digging it. This is on sale for 9.99 on Steam for the next 48 hours, so it's a good time to experience it again in VR!

I hope they bring native support for PSVR2 players, but at the very least, they can run it off of their PCs now w the headset.

Really excited to jump into this tonight!

**Edit- I saw this on their Twitter, one of the devs said this about PSVR2:

"We don't have plans to port it to other platforms! Bugsnax was created using a custom game engine, so each port is time consuming. Our next game is in Unreal though, so future VR possibilities are muchhh easier"

At least you guys have the PC adapter now!

Neonridr167d ago

yeah but I'm not re-buying the game to play it in VR. I don't care how cheap it is. That's just silly to me.

OtterX166d ago

Did you actually buy it, or did you get it free on PS+ when the PS5 launched? I never actually had to pay for it.

Yea for me, I never finished it, so it's easily worth 9.99 to experience it in VR. I think that's a fair price to show support for more games to come to VR in the future.

But I understand if you played through it completely and don't want to hit it again. For me, many games become such a different experience in VR that I'll easily play them again. VR adds new life to everything.

Neonridr166d ago

@OtterX - that's a good point, I did get it free for PS+, I totally forgot.

Fair point. I know my kid loved it, maybe he'd dig it in VR.

Neonridr167d ago

shame that they don't include PSVR2 players considering this game was on the PS5 first.

OtterX166d ago

definitely a win for VR! I tried it this morning, and it feels like this is how the game was always meant to be played. The controls translate very well.

InUrFoxHole166d ago

VR has gotten some pretty decent games lately

anast166d ago

Finally some good news. PSVR is the future.

Abnor_Mal166d ago

Have this sitting in my library thanks to Plus, but I haven’t tried the game yet.

If there would have been a PSVR2 version then I would have more likely given it a go. As it is it may stay buried in my backlog a bit longer.

The 7 Most Underrated Games on PS5 You Need to Play

Amongst all the new PlayStation 5 releases, it's easy to miss some gems. Here's Chit Hot's picks for the seven most underrated games on PS5.

thorstein423d ago

Returnal: such a great game that got some weird misinformation in the press. Like, if you don't know why lie?

jznrpg423d ago (Edited 423d ago )

It’s a 10/10 for me. It doesn’t get enough love for sure. It’s way better than the rest of the games they listed except for Demons Souls.

ravens52423d ago

Returnal was a masterpiece. That's what media outlets do, they misinform. Can't wait to see Housemarques next game. Got Returnal day 1. Gonna play it again now lol.

ravens52423d ago

Kena was a good fun game. Also is Demon Souls really underrated? Stuck on the King🙄. Idk how this remake was received but I would think great. Anyway Demon Souls is a masterpiece as well.

thorstein423d ago

@Raven Yeah. Demon's Souls was great on PS3 and PS5. Wonderful both times. I have no problem with a remaster that comes 2 (or more) generations later.

victorMaje423d ago

To this day one of the best games on PS5. One of the best uses of dualsense too (after Astro).

ModsDoBetter423d ago (Edited 423d ago )

Returnal: Yes.
Destruction AllStars: Hell no.

List lost all credibility right there.
Massive flop.

Skuletor423d ago

Why is every game on this Top 7 list number 1?

Dirty_Lemons423d ago

Returnal is still my favourite PS5 game. A really interesting concept and a fun as hell roguelike.

Storm23423d ago

Same. Best PS5 experience for me so far. Love that game.

MrBaskerville423d ago

Was Returnal underrated though? Did so well that Sony bought Housemarque.

15 Most Underrated PS5 Games – 2023 Edition

GB: "With this feature, we run down 15 of the most underrated games on the PS5 that never received the love and appreciation they truly deserve."

REDGUM493d ago

I beg to differ. Most of these did fall under the radar or didn't receive the recognition that they deserved.
Chernobylite, Terminator Resistance, (especially) Dying Light 2 , Evil West, Weird West, Bugsnax, Guardians of the Galaxy, Like a Dragon and Outriders (pretty much impossible to play solo) were all underrated in my opinion.
Each to their own though.

DickyD1226493d ago

But none of these are under rated.

HansyJ493d ago

Half these games aren’t even from 2023.. a terrible list

Demetrius493d ago

Only real next gen first game ps5 have is spiderman 2 and also star wars jedi survivor hopefully we get more next year
