Since relaunching the subscription service in June 2022, Sony has added a host of games per month to PlayStation Plus Essential, Extra, and Premium.
For PS4 and PS5 users interested in checking out the January 2025 lineup of free PS Plus games, Twitter user PlaystationSize recently detailed their storage space requirements. The largest of the lot by far is the controversial Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League, weighing in at a whopping 79.43GB on PS5. Launched in February 2024, Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League is also the most recent game of the PS Plus January 2025 lineup. The action-adventure shooter was widely panned at release due to its live-service focus and certain major story decisions, but for the low price of free, it wouldn’t be too surprising if a lot of PS Plus subscribers tried out Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League this month.
PS Plus January 2025 Free Games File Sizes
- Need for Speed: Hot Pursuit Remastered
- Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League
- The Stanley Parable: Ultra Deluxe
Up next in the file size rankings for the January 2025 PS Plus lineup is Need for Speed: Hot Pursuit Remastered, requiring a fairly modest 31.55GB for the PS4 version. It’s worth noting that there is no PS5 upgrade for Need for Speed: Hot Pursuit Remastered, which means the open-world racer doesn’t utilize the current-gen console’s stronger hardware and enhanced features. Last but not least is The Stanley Parable: Ultra Deluxe, demanding only 5.10GB on PS4 and 5.77GB on PS5. The Stanley Parable: Ultra Deluxe is an expanded re-telling of the 2013 original, and stands as a formidable indie title thanks to the way it plays on the concept of existential dread.
The January 2025 lineup of free PS Plus additions offers a fairly diverse palette of games overall, but considering two of them are essentially remasters of decade-old titles, it’s understandable why some subscribers may not feel very excited about them. One can only hope that the rest of 2025’s PS Plus additions are much stronger.
