The May 2020 PlayStation Plus games for PS4 were Cities: Skylines – PlayStation 4 Edition and Farming Simulator 19. Sony’s announced download window ran from May 5 through June 1, 2020; the promotion has ended.
Which PS4 games were included in May 2020?
Sony announced two base editions for the monthly lineup:
- Cities: Skylines – PlayStation 4 Edition, a city-building strategy simulation about designing and managing a city while balancing residents’ and industries’ needs.
- Farming Simulator 19, an agricultural simulation featuring crop harvesting, livestock, forestry, horse riding, and licensed farming vehicles.
The two games center on different kinds of management: urban planning in Cities: Skylines and rural work in Farming Simulator 19.
When could subscribers download them?
Sony published its announcement on April 29, 2020. It said both titles would be available to download from Tuesday, May 5, until Monday, June 1, 2020. That claim period is over, so this lineup is not a current free-download offer.
