You could be forgiven for forgetting that Call of Duty: Black Ops III is free on PlayStation Plus right now – it was announced during Sid Shuman’s painful interlude in the Sony E3 2018 press conference earlier this week, after all. But with the PlayStation Store back up and running following some turbulence on Tuesday, we’re here to remind you to grab your free copy while it’s available.
It’s unclear how long it’ll be sticking around – presumably it’ll be rotated out when the PS Plus update gets refreshed next month – but it’s best to just nab it while you can. While it’s not the best Call of Duty game on the PS4 at all, it’s still decent fun and well worth checking out if you want an online shooter to enjoy this summer.
Update: As kindly pointed out by reader Roe in the comments section, Call of Duty: Black Ops III will be available free for a full month, until 11th July.

“Related games: Detroit Become Human” ?! 😆
@get2sammyb it's on PS+ for a month til the 11th July.
I don't like most CoD, but I did enjoy BO3. The coop campaign is pretty fun on realistic difficulty. Not sure it's worth the 100gb of downloads, but there are worse ways to spend your $0.00.
@roe Thank you, will update the article.
Shoot people in the back and be shot in the back. That's the Call of Duty way!
Thought about downlaoding it until somebody mentioned 100GB. I'm sure that was an exaggeration but still, I never play FPS so why bother. I still need to download X-com. And play Rime.
Edit: Oh what the hey, 43GB, did it anyway. I've always been a sucker for that Paint it Black trailer. Is this the 1 w/ Kevin Spacey? May be worth it for the single player campaign. Actually it was worth it to see my cart say $119.98 for free, I got X-xom while I was there as well.
Already bought it on launch (and sell it after I'm done with it), and now I already download it
I set it to download from my phone. Went for a quick game and told need to insert disc. So had to deleted installed disc game and then download from the store. I’m sure Sony could make this easier as I’d already installed the game. Still done now.
@rjejr No that's Advanced Warfare that had Kevin Spacey in it IIRC.
Is the campaign any good?
@LobsterJohnson That's what I want to know too.
@Tasuki "Advanced Warfare"
Oh yeah you're right, sorry about that and thanks for the correction.
@PS_Nation @LobsterJohnson
My view of the campaign, as someone who’s played through them all would be that it’s one of the poorer ones. But has a great redeeming factor which is the whole thing can be played coop. The story seems disjointed but the gameplay mechanics are sound. As for the multiplayer for a futuristic game it’s pretty good. Not quite as fluid as titanfall 2 but better than advanced warfare and significantly better than infinite warfare
@gingerfrog thanks, that's good to keep in mind!
@gingerfrog Thanks for the input. I would like to play alone though. The last Call of Duty that I played is Black Ops 2 and I really didn't like the campaign.
@get2sammyb Painful? I like Sid and without a doubt he is the best of the bunch at hosting and getting little insights out of the devs
@bbtothe I like them, too. Just didn't like the interlude.
