The February free games will be replaced by Battlefield 2042, Code Vein and Minecraft Dungeons.

After a somewhat troubled launch, Battlefield 2042 developer DICE has made multiple improvements to the first-person shooter.

The multiplayer shooter supports 128 players on PS5, and 64 players on PS4.

“Battlefield 2042 is an exhilarating first-person shooter that marks the return of the iconic all-out warfare the franchise is well known for.

“Set in a near-future world transformed by disorder, you’ll have to adapt and overcome dynamic battlegrounds with the help of your squad and an arsenal of cutting-edge weapons and vehicles.

“With support for 128 players on PlayStation 5, Battlefield 2042 brings unprecedented scale on vast battlegrounds across the globe.”

Code Vein, on the other hand, is described as the anime Dark Souls, featuring punishing gameplay and a colourful art style.

“Team up with an AI partner or a friend in co-op multiplayer and venture out into a world of destruction in this story driven connected dungeon experience, using your combined strength to coordinate your approach and defend each other from surprise attacks or tackle overpowered enemies.”
