“Worst lineup in years.” PlayStation fans criticize the PS Plus Premium and Extra offerings

In early November, Sony presented the PS Plus Essential lineup, which did not receive enthusiastic reactions, but some users had high hopes for the November PS Plus Premium and PS Plus Extra offerings. Following the announcement, gamers do not hide that they were hoping for a much higher quality selection.

Yesterday, the Japanese developer and publisher unveiled a list of games that will be added to the PlayStation Plus Premium and PlayStation Plus Extra libraries next week. At the same time, subscribers have an opportunity to check out the first game – Sony guaranteed another new release as part of the subscription.

However, the PlayStation community hoped the game selection would turn out to be much richer. The price hike across all 12-month PS Plus options was introduced in September, a decision driven by assurances of superior quality, whereas the latest announcements have been met with a wave of negative comments.

Yesterday, Sony announced the availability of Dragon's Dogma: Dark Arisen, Dead Island: Riptide Definitive Edition, and Eiyuden Chronicle: Rising. 

Below the post on Twitter, one can find comments like this:

• “Worst lineup in years.”
• “Trash.”
• “Are you kidding me?”
• “Again, how much does PS Plus cost?”
• “Disappointed, I have nothing to say...”
• “So there are no good ones?”
• “A 30% price hike for this? The worst month we've had, please compete with Game Pass, we also deserve great games on the service, like Lies of P.”

In the comments, Teardown is called a good game, but the subscription price increase became one of the factors behind hopes for bigger hits.
