Good news, readers: Oddworld: Soulstorm will be available for free to PlayStation Plus subscribers on PlayStation 5 when it launches on April 6. Even better news: the game will be released in just over a month, so certainly Sony cannot squeeze it into yet another live stream. It looks like Groundhog Day with that title, doesn’t it?
To clarify, the game is being released on both PS5 and PS4, but only the latest generation version will be free – it’s the same thing as Bugsnax, if you remember. Presenting the title on the PlayStation Blog, Lorne Lanning explained: “Soulstorm is the second game in quintology. In it, you will explore a massive cinematic scale and strange and wonderful 2.9D environments full of breathtaking visuals. 2.9D allows you to venture out into the world. It creates greater scale and action. Adds depth and immersion. “
Also, just to reiterate: this game will be free in April. We still have no idea what March The PS Plus lineup looks like.
