All PS Plus members get five-star Star Wars game on PS5 and PS4 for free

PlayStation 5 and PS4 owners have been treated this month, no matter which tier of PS Plus you subscribe to. That's because one of the best Star Wars games in recent times is one of the free games available through August as part of membership.

Lego Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga is also one of the best Lego games in many a year, as it spans the entire nine-movie epic, with 45 missions in total and 380 playable characters to discover.

First released in 2022, the game retains the traditional platform and puzzling gameplay of prior Lego titles, but adds plenty of other bells and whistles – including a refined combat engine. There are also bigger playing fields and better graphics, especially on the PS5.

The game scored very well when originally reviewed, being awarded five-stars by VGC and four-and-a-half by T3's sister site GamesRadar+. The PS5 version has an impressive 82 Metacritic score.

It's now available to all PS Plus Essential, Extra and Premium subscribers. Just head to the dedicated PS Plus section on your console's homescreen and it'll be there, ready to download.

As are the other two games available on PS Plus this month – Five Nights at Freddy's: Security Breach for PS5 and PS4, and Ender Lilies: Quietus of the Knights.

The latter is the PS4 version which will also play on PS5.

Also rated highly, the latest Five Nights at Freddy's game is this time set in a shopping mall, although you must once again evade the animatronic mascots. There's a security guard to avoid this time, too.

It's survival horror in the lightest sense and its 12 PEGI rating means it can be enjoyed by players of many different ages.

Ender Lilies: Quietus of the Knights is a sideways-scrolling action-RPG that's very much in the Metroidvania mold. As its graphics are hand-drawn, it has a great art style and a relatively short running time, so won't take up a massive portion of your life.
