PlayStation Plus is having a free online multiplayer weekend

Sony Interactive Entertainment has announced plans to hold a free PlayStation Plus online multiplayer weekend.

Online multiplayer modes for PS5 and PS4 titles will be accessible without a PlayStation Plus subscription from June 22-23.

Players who want to take part in the promotion will require a PlayStation Network account.

This month’s PlayStation Plus Essential games are SpongeBob Squarepants: The Cosmic Shake (PS4, PS5), AEW Fight Forever (PS4, PS5) and Streets of Rage 4 (PS4).

June’s PlayStation Plus Game Catalogue and Classics titles were made available today.

Unlike PlayStation Plus Essential games, which are available for all subscribers to claim, Game Catalogue’s downloadable PS4 and PS5 titles are only available for Extra and Premium tier members.

This month’s additions include Monster Hunter Rise, Football Manager 2024, Crusader Kings 3 and After Us.

PlayStation Plus Premium also offers a selection of PS1, PS2, PSP games to download, PS3 games via cloud streaming, and this month it began adding PlayStation VR2 titles too.

June’s additions to the Classics Catalogue include Lego Star Wars II: The Original Trilogy, Ghosthunter, Daxter, Tomb Raider Legend, Star Wars: The Clone Wars and Sly Cooper and the Thievius Raccoonus.

Harry Potter: Quidditch Champions recently received a September release date. At the same time, it was confirmed that the title will be available with PlayStation Plus on day one.
