January 2022 PS Plus Games Release Time: When can you download them?

PlayStation's PS Plus games are usually pretty solid and the selection on offer for January 2022 is hardly something to complain about. There's a little something for everyone this month and we have everything you need to know about what time the January 2022 PS Plus games release - if you're eager to download and play them, this should help.

When can you download this month's games?

If you're looking to get your hands on this month's PS Plus games, you should find that the PS Store will refresh and reflect the new set of PS Plus games at the following time:

  • 03:00 PST
  • 06:00 EST
  • 11:00 GMT

If you can't wait until then, you can search for each title individually on the PS Store. It might already be updated and included in this month's PS Plus offering - however, this isn't always the case and can be an unreliable way to do things. If one of the games below still says that you need to pay for it - rather than just add it to your Library with the PS Plus icon - then it's best to wait.

That being said...

What games can we download with PS Plus this month?

Following PlayStation's announcement last week, the following games are available with an active PS Plus subscription from January 4th, 2022...

  • Deep Rock Galactic (PS4 & PS5)
  • Persona 5 Strikers (PS4)
  • Dirt 5 (PS4 & PS5)

Here's PlayStation's announcement tweet - which should offer you a great look at what's to come.

Classically, these games were all leaked before the announcement - so, they might not be too surprising for some of you. However, they're far from a bad selection. Deep Rock Galactic is probably the weakest of the bunch, but this is a fantastic game to play with your friends and its sandbox nature opens it up to hours of fun.
