PS Plus and Games With Gold for December Revealed, Include Worms Rumble and Just Cause 4

Sony and Microsoft have revealed the PS Plus and Games With Gold subscribers will be able to play for free in December. It’s another solid month for Sony, as they deliver Just Cause 4, Rocket Arena, and the new-release game Worms Rumble. On the other hand, it’s another slow month for XBL Gold subscribers as Microsoft focuses on obscure games like Bleed 2 and older fare like Saints Row: Gat Out of Hell.

Here are Sony’s descriptions of December’s lineup of PS Plus games. Bugsnax is also still free for PS5 PS Plus subscribers:

Worms Rumble

This is Worms like you’ve never played it before, with intense, real-time, arena-based 32 player cross-platform combat!  Use a variety of fan-favorite weapons like the Bazooka and Shotgun plus all-new additions to the armoury to bring the pain to your invertebrate opponents as you climb the ranks. Customise your worm, then take part in seasonal events, daily challenges and community collaborations for additional XP and rewards, and experimental game modes in The Lab. Get ready for Deathmatch and Battle Royale where you’re only ever a Holy Hand Grenade away from death!

Rocket Arena

Learn how to time your dodges, lead your targets and unearth new strategies based on your squad and try out in-game items such as the Rocket Magnet, Trip Mine and Speed Boost to change the course of combat. Dive into Knockout for classic 3v3 competitive action, or practice your favourite combos against RocketBots first. Compete to score goals in Rocketball, control zones in Mega Rocket, and go for the gold in Treasure Hunt.

Meanwhile, here are your December Games With Gold:

As always, Microsoft is offering a month of Xbox Game Pass Ultimate (which includes Game Pass and XBL Gold) for $1 for new subscribers. Sony offers a 14-day free PS Plus trial for new subscribers in Europe and Canada, but not in the US.

What do you think about this month’s offerings? Hard to ignore the growing disparity between the PS Plus free games and Games With Gold. Those rumors that XBL Gold may be on the way out are starting to feel pretty plausible.
