August is HUGE for Gamers
If you’ve been thinking your PlayStation library needs a little shake-up, August just heard you loud and clear. PlayStation Plus Extra and Premium members woke up to a serious power-up this month: Spider-Man and Mortal Kombat are now free to download. Yes, the web-slinging, skyscraper-swinging hero and the spine-shattering, fatality-dropping fighter just joined forces to eat up all your free time.
Why This Drop is Huge
Spider-Man isn’t just another superhero game. It’s one of those titles that makes you feel like you are the hero. The swinging mechanics alone? Smooth enough to make your thumbs feel like they’ve been doing Pilates. And Mortal Kombat? Well, it’s the kind of game where friendship ends in the second round and family dinners get awkward after a well-timed fatality.
The Perfect August Pairing
Sony didn’t just toss in two random games. This is the sweet spot between immersive story and pure, chaotic fun. Spend the day saving New York in Spider-Man, then blow off steam in Mortal Kombat when your boss sends that “quick question” email at 9 p.m.
So, What’s the Catch?
You’ll need a PlayStation Plus Extra or Premium subscription to grab these, but if you already have one, it’s like getting two AAA experiences for the price of nothing extra. The only real downside? Deciding which game to start first. And yes, your sleep schedule is about to be in serious danger.
