What’s the March 2019 PlayStation Plus lineup? And when will the March 2019 PS Plus lineup be revealed? We’ve entered a brave new world for PS+, as both the PlayStation 3 and PS Vita have now been removed from the service. Aside from an increase in PlayStation 4 cloud storage space, we still don’t really know whether the Japanese giant intends to compensate for the absent software, meaning… Well, this could very well be a two game update. Let’s get into all the rumours and speculation surrounding Mar 2019’s update.
For a recap, check out our full list of all free PS Plus games in 2019.
When will March 2019’s free PS Plus games be announced?
March 2019's free PlayStation Plus games will be announced on Wednesday, 27th February – assuming that Sony follows its usual schedule, and all goes to plan.
When will March 2019’s free PlayStation Plus games be available to download?
You'll be able to download March 2019's free PS Plus games from Tuesday, 5th March.
What are March 2019’s free PS Plus games?
Assuming that Sony is not going to replace the PS3 and PS Vita games that padded out the monthly PlayStation Plus lineup, then there’s going to be even greater expectation attached to the two PS4 titles it gives away. Fortunately, the lineup in this department has been relatively strong for over a year now, with last month’s offering of For Honor and Hitman well received. Personally, we’d like to see the platform holder extend the scope of the service, perhaps throwing in an additional PSVR title per month in order to make up for the removal of its legacy systems. How would you like to see the service evolve this year?
What free March 2019 PlayStation Plus games do you want?
And now it’s your turn to tell us what games you’d like as part of March 2019’s PS Plus lineup. We’d also like to hear how you’d like the service to evolve over the coming year: do you want PSVR games to be tossed in? Would you like to receive more PS4 titles? Do you think Sony should stick with just two games, but generally try to select bigger and better releases? We want to know.
What free March 2019 PS Plus games are you hoping for? Is there anything in particular that you've got your fingers crossed for? How would you like to see PlayStation Plus evolve this year? Think it through in the comments section below.

Second adding a PSVR game to make up for the removal of PS3 and Vita.
Prediction - there will be a class action lawsuit against Sony if they keep the current PS+ price but only have 2 PS4 games per month.
FYI - I recently got my $10 check from Sony from the removal of Other OS lawsuit. So as frivolous as a PS+ lawsuit may sound, well lawyers gotta eat too. #FirstWorldProblems
I think Anthem would be a good game to get now that we know that it's not worth the full price
Killzone: Shadowfall. I really liked the MP but no one plays it anymore. It’s a good tactic to regenerate MP populations IMO.
Or The Division.
@Frigate Project Cars 2 is unplayable with a controller. Literally slidey snake driving with every corner a complete disaster waiting to happen. I played around with the settings and had the scheme at the best possible sensitivity and you would start spinning for no apparent reason. Honestly a complete joke on a pad. If I had a wheel it would be awesome as the content is fantastic.
I would like;
Headmaster PSVR
Cities PS4
Yakuza Kiwami 2, but it’s too soon I’m afraid.
Really interested to see what we get this month with PS3 and Vita no longer in the picture. It would be awesome if they give a PSVR title along with PS4 from now on. Even if I don’t have a PSVR, it would be nice to get a library going just in case.
Off topic, but I checked out your profile Sammy on PSNprofiles. Man you have a ton of trophies! Rank #354 in the UK, very impressive!
They need to make sure to have at least one T rated or lower game since there are plenty of young folks who subscribe to PS+. Also some of us OG's like less mature games as well, and given the political turmoil, more lighthearted games would be a nice distraction.
@themcnoisy That sure as heck better not happen. If Sony used one of the two PS4 freebie slots as a PSVR game there'll be riots and rightfully so. If they add it as a bonus game that's fine.
knack 2, the order would be nice.
Final Fantasy nine and Dark Cloud. I don’t think we have had any PS1 or PS2 games on PlayStation plus yet.
What about The Last Guardian, Diablo 3 or The Witness.
@FinneasGH +1 for The Witness.
I would be happy with any Wolfenstein or Far Cry game as well.
a fighting game would be nice like injustice 2. or perhaps uncharted collection
Given is was on PS now last month I imagine Mortal Kombat X. Tempted to let my PS plus subscription lapse if they dont pull off something major as there is too much overlap with Now and that suits my gaming better as I don't play online.
i'm hoping now they aint spending money licensing games for the PS3 and Vita that we will be getting some bigger budget titles on the PS4
Had my eye on Gravel for a while, but I'm because I'm a cheap cheap man......yeah that'll do!
Celeste, Darksiders or the Bioshock collection would be grand.
Many times the PS3 and Vita were cross play and added more games for PS4. We lost the possibility of that also. I tend to buy the games I want. I want them to surprise me by finding a game I will enjoy that I didn't know I wanted.
I find it interesting that over the course of PS+ in America - I looked at the complete list on Wiki - that there has been only a couple of racing games on PS4. Driveclub, Tabletop Racing World Tour... There have been games with racing elements like Race the Sun, Velocity 2X, Trials Fusion, Trackmania Turbo and Onrush. That's pretty much the entire list so far. With the elimination of PS3 and Vita, surely we could get an older game like NFS Rivals or Baja: Edge of Control or newer titles like MotoRacer 4 or Flatout 4. I want a real racing game. But I already own most of them, so it'll probably be something I have.
Wouldn't mind the kingdom hearts remasters or the latest dragon quest. As for vr I'd be happy with virtual rickality.
Hmm... something like Gran Turismo Sport and Nex Machina. And I still would love them to include Night in the Woods.
@Frigate I second your list
Don't have any specific games in mind, but how bout something good for once
NBA Playgrounds 2 would be nice for me!
Also, some horror game could make it even sweeter!
I never played the latest mass effect because it didn't seem worth the money because of problems. So why not on plus.
Something that isnt a 40gb or more install would be nice.
@Ichiban love the game, got the deluxe edition for 15 so I couldn't complain well worth it.
good games that don't have to be aaa. aaa does not always equal good. the games that were given out this month were garbage. no cheap mobile indie games. i want games that are semi popular games that not a lot of people played but don't want to spend their money on but would gladly take them as a plus game like tropico 5 and xcom 2. I may not have been a big fan of those games but they are some of the better quality games that p;us has given out along with rime and deus ex. what i don't want is for them to give out a bunch of 5 year old games on plus that everyone has already played before. people won't be happy until the order and killzone becomes free on plus.
Honestly, if they're taking away PSP and ps3 then they need at least 3 ps4 titles a month and a psvr title. This month i feel a souls game or maybe even an assassin's creed (The Ezio collection looks lovely).
Metro exodus, so I can see if it really is a 6/10 game.
I've almost reached the point where I don't want them to be games I'm interested in. The list of games in my library which I'll probably never get around to playing is ever growing.
I haven't had time for this stuff in weeks (blame the growing collection/backlog on Switch and...yeah, Xenoblade alone on 3DS), which actually left me with an expired subscription I'll probably refresh sometime in March instead. As for games, indeed, we have no current grounds to expect anything beyond a couple PS4 titles - and at this point I might as well just wish for anything that's not [yet] available portably and manages to keep its vital controls off the rear touchpad. Like, again, The Crew series - but THREE Ubisoft giveaways in a row definitely sounds like a tall order. XD
Im not worried so much about the freebies this coming month as i am excited for Trials on tuesday...woooo. Anybody else ready for some new Trials
I wouldn't mind getting another COD for free, say what you will about the franchise but the games are all enjoyable, even the worst, I was fairly suprised when we were given Black Ops 3 for free on PS PLUS.
WW2 for free wouldn't be bad.
Watchdogs 2 would be another massive one, especially since a Watchdogs 3 announcement seems to be right around the corner, Sony would capitalise greatly from it.
I think a PSVR Game every second Month would be a Good Move by Sony, as may tempt more Buyers for the PSVR Headset, knowing there will be additions to their Library every second Month via PSN -
I'll gladly resub to PS Plus if we get VR games in place of PS3 and Vita games.
I think Destiny 1 with all the dlc's would be nice for any players who want to relive it. It could also give the game one last chance to sell. Other than that i personally would like My hero one's justice. Beat saber would be a good VR game also.
@Thunderlips69 did we get Blops 3 for free? That passed me by, I'd give that a go if I'd known even though I'm not a big Cod fan, I'm a fan of free though.
@MinerWilly It really did go under the radar, i believe it was during E3 last year that it was made free.
Black Ops 3 was not a part of the standard PS+ offering for June 2018. Started a week late and went a week into July offerings.
@Robinsad Amen to that. For offline gamers PS Now is by far the best option. The very reason I let my Plus sub lapse. Although my gaming time is limited anyway so will probably let Now lapse as well.
Nowadays you have to follow the pattern of what has been on PS Now or vice versa. So, for Plus this month it is likely to be two of:
OR, I saw Agents of Mayhem in a recent sale for just £3.99 so perhaps something like that?
As for PS Now for March, basically reverse engineer the above and look at whats been on Plus recently:
https://www.neogaf.com/threads/leaked-ps-plus-free-ps4-games-for-march-2017.1348266/
they are suggesting Tearaway and Disc Jam
@Sealtight Haha, that's March 2017! Both of those games have been free already, albeit two years ago!
@tomassi wishing Monday away
Dam! I missed Tearaway...
@Sealtight I reckon you can probably pick it up fairly cheap in a sale at some point. It's an interesting game! Disc Jam is quite fun for some couch co-op as well!
Ah, let's go big - Horizon: Zero Dawn
The order or Killzone
I think I'll still be playing KH3 then so I don't mind, but in would like to eventually have all the Yakuza games through PS+. King of Fighter XIV too, I nearly bought it the other day but it seems ripe for a PS+ release.
Is Journey on the PS4? If so, I would take it. The Last Guardian would be cool too.
@Devlind Journey was on plus a few years ago. The last Guardian is too new I think, and I already own it 🙂
@Cycologist Oh, well, I didn't get the chance to get it back then, so I would take it if they end up repeating it (I don't know if they do). And well yes, The Last Guardian was released in 2016, but For Honor was released in 2017 and they put it on this month's Plus games, so I don't know if the release date is really a problem here.
@Cycologist @Devlind Yeah, OnRush was actually a 2018 release, so they don’t always dip into the old stuff.
@Gremio108 funny i was thinking same thing. I already own it and got the plat. But that would be a good one after stopping support for ps3 and vita.
Red Dead Redemption 2, Ghost of Tsushima, Cyberpunk 2077 and Horizon: Zero Dawn 2 (I'm optimistic)
I reckon everybody's golf could be in with a shout. The Order would be good wouldnt mind giving that a second go as fell off it quickly first time. Would like a VR game to replace the loss of PS3 and Vita games.
I only want “PAW Patrol Is On A Roll”
...I have a 3yo.
And it’s stupid expensive.
@bindiana i'm with you on the order.
it was the game's birthday recently so it would be nice to give it some new attention as a PS plus game. afterall it has been requested a lot.
@Th3solution Onrush also had a pretty awful release. If it had sold anywhere near expected... you certainly wouldn't have seen a quick offering on PS+ let alone the dismissal of Evolution. The little time I played in the beta didn't impress me. however, it gets a 75 on Metacritic so I may have missed my chance to get a decent game free.
@Cycologist Yeah, OnRush was surprisingly good in my opinion. Glad I got it for ‘free’ of course, but it is a fun time and a unique take on the racing genre. I’m not a race game enthusiast, but I like the feeling of speed and the different modes. There was some untapped potential in the OnRush ideas, and it suffered from probably too little content. Another mode or two would have been great. I think a Battle Royale-ish racing mode could have been great, which the mode “Switch” was a step away from that anyways. In fact, if they would have just called it “Racing Battle Royale” it probably would have sold in droves 😉
But yes, we likely won’t get games that have been released within the past year unless they are struggling to make sales quotas.
