PlayStation is set to release its free games for January 2026, giving subscribers access to some exciting titles. Starting January 6, PlayStation Plus members can claim Need For Speed Unbound, Epic Mickey: Rebrushed, and Core Keeper. These games will be available until February 2.
In Need For Speed Unbound, players experience street racing in a gritty Lakeshore City, reminiscent of Chicago. The game combines thrilling single-player and multiplayer campaigns, where players escalate their “Heat” level, drawing police attention and riskier encounters. With every race, there’s an opportunity to customize vehicles and enter weekly qualifiers leading to the ultimate street racing challenge, The Grand.
Epic Mickey: Rebrushed offers a revamped experience of the classic 2010 Wii game. This remaster lets players guide Mickey Mouse through a colorful Wasteland filled with forgotten characters. For the first time, Mickey confronts his brother Oswald, making it a significant journey of reconciliation.
Core Keeper is a cozy survival game that invites players to explore expansive underground caverns filled with hidden treasures. To thrive, players must gather resources, craft tools, and fend off titans while managing farms, fishing, and food preparation.
