Sony’s leadership has announced the PlayStation Plus monthly games lineup for December 2024, a selection that covers PS Plus Essential, Extra, and Premium subscribers. Starting December 3, players can claim It Takes Two on PS4 and PS5, Aliens: Dark Descent on PS4 and PS5, and Temtem on PS5, with access continuing through January 6. The choice adds festive entertainment options for the holidays and gives subscribers more variety to enjoy during the season.
It Takes Two (PS4/PS5)
It Takes Two is a cooperative platformer built around a distinctive narrative and finely tuned gameplay. Developed by Hazelight Studios, the game is designed specifically for two players, whether playing locally or online. Players assume the roles of Cody and May, a couple who, under a magical spell, are transformed into dolls and must travel through a magical world to repair their relationship. The game shines with its emphasis on teamwork, as each level presents challenges that demand active collaboration and clear communication between players.
Aliens: Dark Descent (PS4/PS5)
Aliens: Dark Descent delivers a real time strategy experience set in the horror sci fi universe. In this title, players command a squad of Colonial Marines fighting for survival on Moon Lethe. The atmosphere is tense and death is permanent, making every decision carry weight. Players manage resources, deploy troops, and confront the franchise’s fearsome creatures, including xenomorphs and Weyland-Yutani agents who complicate every mission.

Temtem (PS5)
Temtem offers a creature collection adventure similar to Pokemon, inviting players into a world brimming with exploration and battles in the Archipelago Aerial. Players take on the role of Temtem tamers, traveling across six floating islands to discover new species while challenging other trainers. Temtem emphasizes exploration and teamwork, with opportunities to trade and battle other players along the way.
Last Chance for November Games
Subscribers still have time to add November titles to their library, with a deadline of December 2 for games such as Hot Wheels Unleashed 2 Turbocharged, Ghostwire: Tokyo, and Death Note Killer Within. Those titles will remain accessible until that date, so anyone who has not downloaded them yet can still claim them before they rotate out of the catalog.
Game Trial
PlayStation Plus Premium members will enjoy a trial of Warhammer 40K: Space Marine 2, which joins the catalog on December 3. In addition, on December 10, players can revisit classics like Sly 2: Band of Thieves and Sly 3: Honor Among Thieves for PS2, as well as Jak & Daxter: The Precursor Legacy, which now includes trophies. The lineup adds a mix of modern and classic experiences suitable for different tastes.
With these new games, December looks set to deliver a month full of excitement and fun for PS Plus subscribers, who will have a rich selection of titles to enjoy during the holidays.
