August 2018 PlayStation Plus Free Games Include Mafia III and Two Extra Bonuses

Free 2018 May PlayStation Plus Games Revealed

It’s the Wednesday before the first Tuesday of a month, and we all know what a special day that is. It’s PS Plus free games reveal day, which is basically a holiday to any subscribers. Sony has announced that the free PlayStation Plus free games for August 2018 will include the open-world period piece, Mafia III, and asymmetrical horror multiplayer game Dead by Daylight, which pits a group of survivors against a deranged killer. While it’s not always the case, the lists between North America and Europe are completely identical in August. That means everyone gets to enjoy the same games. The current games will go away on August 7, so players still have time to redeem games like Heavy Rain, Absolver, Zero Escape, and more.

In addition to the regular six games this month (two for each platform), Sony is offering two bonuses. Here They Lie is being added as a PSVR exclusive Plus free title through October 2, bringing back the two-month long free PSVR games that Sony had been previously offering to subscribers.

Finally, a PlayLink title called Knowledge is Power will be available for free through November 6. PlayLink titles require friends to play with and a companion app to use as a controller, but they can be extremely fun party games.

Here are the games both leaving and entering the PlayStation Plus Instant Game Collection next week on August 7, 2018 in North America and Europe:

These titles will become available on August 7, 2018. Until then, subscribers will still be able to redeem July’s line-up of titles. Once a title is redeemed, you can download and play it at any time as long as you have an active PlayStation Plus subscription.

Remember that Sony will stop offering PS3 and Vita titles in the Instant Game Collection in March 2019. At that time it’s unknown what–if anything–will replace those spots, but Sony’s continued offering of PSVR titles and games found in its PlayLink initiative could offer clues to the future of the service.

Dead or Alive 6 New Character Diego Makes His Debut Against Rig

New Dead or Alive 6 Character

Back in June 2018, before the rush of E3 2018, Koei Tecmo and Team Ninja revealed the latest entry in the Dead or Alive series. More details were promised a few days later, but aside from the announcements that Dead or Alive 6 will be playable at EVO 2018 and that the sexualization of the game’s female characters will finally be toned down, information has largely been delivered rather slowly. Until now, as a new Dead or Alive 6 character named Diego has appeared.

Diego, a street fighter who grew up in New York’s back alleys, brings a sort of Def Jam: Fight for NY kind of flare to Dead or Alive 6. He pummels his opponents with headlocks, shoulder chargers, and tackles. In addition to his unorthodox method of fighting—in relation to the rest of the Dead or Alive cast—Diego also makes ample use of his environment. In his trailer, he shoves his opponents into barrels and fences before curb stomping them in the dirtiest display of dirty fighting we may have ever seen.

Watch Diego’s reveal trailer as he battles against returning Dead or Alive 5 antagonist, Rig.

During E3 2018, we had the chance to check out Dead or Alive 6 with a hands-on preview. Our senior editor, Chandler Wood, said that while he still wouldn’t consider himself a fan, “It’s great to see one of the long-running series in the genre reinventing itself.” He continued to say that, with Dead or Alive 6 taking itself a “bit more seriously and offering an intensity to the battles, the series may be able to escape the generalization of ‘sexy fighter’ that it has earned itself.”

We’ll have to wait until Dead or Alive 6 enters to ring to see if it really has reinvented itself. Dead or Alive 6 will be available sometime in the first quarter of 2019 for PC, PlayStation 4 and Xbox One.
