Without any leaks or hints from Sony, it’s hard to tell just what might be revealed for PlayStation Plus fans this week.
However, while we don’t know what will be included in the official PS Plus March 2018 lineup, it seems pretty likely we’ll hear about it very soon.
The last few months have seen Sony announce their official roster of free games on the last Wednesday of the month.
They then usually follow this up by launching the new lineup on the first Tuesday of the month.
That would mean that the new games for PS4, PS3 and PS Vita would go live on March 6.
Recent months have also seen Sony offer up games for PlayStation VR owners as well, so even more titles could be revealed later today.
There have been some pretty good PS Plus games released in the last few months, with the highlights being Deus Ex: Mankind Divided and Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain.
Fans are always eager to see new AAA games announced as part of their PlayStation Plus subscription, so the question is whether March can keep the good times rolling.
As mentioned above, There have been no new leaks to suggest what could be in store, however, a recent YouTube vlog appears to have provided a pretty strong hint that the quality could be high.
Spanish YouTuber Ampeterby7 recently visited the PlayStation Spain HQ and got some interview time with an employee.
During their chat, it appears that the PlayStation Spain team member backed next month’s PlayStation Plus roster to include some top titles.
The direct translation isn’t the best, but it appears that March 2018 could include some of the best free PS4 games since the service was first started in 2013.
It should be noted that the content you have downloaded as part of your PlayStation Plus subscription at no charge is only accessible as long as you are an active subscriber.
The exceptions are free themes and avatars, which you will continue to have access to, even if you are no longer a subscriber.
Anything you have purchased (even if you purchased it at a discount) will remain available to you even if your subscription ends.
Also, different countries have different rights, release schedules and, have different things available in their PlayStation Store for this reason.
So this is why you may hear about different games being available in Asia, Europe and North America, when it comes to some PS Plus announcements.
