Hot off the heels of Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth, PlayStation has another big month of releases in March 2024.
Four new PlayStation Plus monthly games are coming in March, headlined by Sifu, the martial arts beat ’em up released in 2021. The game received mostly positive reviews, praising its complex fighting mechanics and inventive aging system. It currently sits at 81 on Metacritic. All four games can be played on both PS4 and PS5 and are available from Tuesday, March 5, until Monday, April 1.
Sifu
Developed by Sloclap, the studio behind Absolver, Sifu follows a young kung fu student hell-bent on revenge. With a big focus on positioning and using the environment, Sifu’s combat is both brutal and challenging.
Hello Neighbor 2
The follow-up to the wildly popular stealth horror game, Hello Neighbor 2 tasks you with solving a mystery around missing children in a rural town called Raven Brooks.
Destiny 2: The Witch Queen
The Witch Queen is a recent expansion from the popular MMO looter-shooter, introducing the new Glaive weapon. The expansion typically costs around $30. Destiny 2 is required to play The Witch Queen, but you can download it for free from the PS Store.
