December is here, which means two things: endless Mariah Carey songs and a shiny new PlayStation Plus lineup! This month, Sony’s gift to gamers is a trio of epic titles that’ll make you forget about awkward family gatherings and New Year’s resolutions you’ll abandon by February. Before you do, let’s dive into what’s on offer—grab your controllers and a plate of holiday cookies.
PlayStation Plus Game 1: It Takes Two
What’s the Deal?
This isn’t just a game—it’s a therapy session disguised as a co-op adventure. It Takes Two forces you and a partner (friend, spouse, unsuspecting sibling) to work together to help a bickering couple fix their broken marriage. And by “work together,” I mean yelling at each other over puzzles and blaming each other for every failed jump. Ah, holiday bonding.
Why It’s Awesome:
- Hilarious Co-op Mayhem: You’ll laugh, you’ll cry, you’ll call your partner names you’ll regret later.
- Constant Surprises: Every level changes the gameplay, as a result, it never gets boring. Think of it as the gaming equivalent of a variety pack of snacks.
- Holiday-Perfect: Nothing screams “festive spirit” like yelling, “We’re gonna divorce again if you don’t solve this puzzle faster!”
PlayStation Plus Game 2: Aliens: Dark Descent
What’s the Deal?
Aliens: Dark Descent is a tactical, squad-based strategy game set in the terrifying Alien universe. It’s your job to guide a team of Colonial Marines through a nightmarish mission while trying not to scream every time a xenomorph appears. Spoiler: You’ll scream.
Why It’s Awesome:
- Squad Goals: Command your marines like a boss. Or, more realistically, panic and blame them when things go sideways.
- Tension Galore: Every decision matters, Consequently, you’ll spend half the game second-guessing yourself.
- Perfect for Horror Fans: Love the Alien movies? This game feels like jumping straight into the franchise—minus Sigourney Weaver to save you.

PlayStation Plus Game 3: Temtem
What’s the Deal?
Do you like Pokémon? Do you wish it had an MMO twist and battles that don’t let you spam the same overpowered move 20 times? Then Temtem is your new obsession. Explore the colorful Airborne Archipelago, catch cute critters, and prove you’re the best trainer out there—or at least better than your little brother.
Why It’s Awesome:
- Strategic Battles: You actually need to think instead of button-mashing your way to victory. Shocking, I know.
- Always Online Fun: Team up with friends, challenge strangers, or just show off your best Temtem.
- Regular Updates: The developers keep adding content, ensuring that you’ll have plenty to do while procrastinating on your holiday shopping.
Why PlayStation Plus in December Is the Real MVP
- Celebrate in Style: This December marks PlayStation’s 30th anniversary. If gaming were a person, it’d be old enough to grumble about “kids these days.” As a result, expect discounts, events, and plenty of nostalgia.
- Holiday Savings: Don’t blow your gift money on socks. Instead, check the PlayStation Store for deals on add-ons and other games.
How to Get These Games
Getting these games is easier than pretending to like your uncle’s holiday fruitcake. Just:
- Log in to your PlayStation account.
- Go to the PlayStation Plus section.
- Hit download. Boom. Done.
These games are free until January 2, 2025, so don’t wait! (Seriously, don’t. You’ll hate yourself if you miss It Takes Two.)
Final Thoughts: PlayStation Plus Is the Gift That Keeps Giving
Overall, this month’s PlayStation Plus lineup is packed with fun, chaos, and just the right amount of xenomorph-related stress. Whether you’re solving puzzles in It Takes Two, strategizing in Aliens: Dark Descent, or catching ‘em all in Temtem, you’ve got plenty to keep you busy until 2025.
