Exploring the Depths: Temtem’s Adventure on PlayStation.Blog

This December, PlayStation Plus is bringing something special for its members with a fresh lineup of games that promises fun, strategy, and exploration. Mark your calendars for December 3rd, because that’s when It Takes Two, Aliens: Dark Descent, and Temtem will be available. Let’s dive into what each of these exciting titles has to offer.

First off, It Takes Two is a creative co-op platform adventure that turns collaboration into a comedic journey. You can opt for either the comfort of your couch or the vastness of online play with a split-screen option. By using the Friend’s Pass, you can invite a buddy to join free of charge. The game features Cody and May, two human characters enchanted into dolls and thrust into a colorful world where cooperation is key. With abilities intricately linked to each new level, players are required to bridge gaps both physical and metaphorical. Whether tackling squirrel gangsters or maneuvering a buzzing nightclub, It Takes Two promises a rich, narrative-driven experience filled with chuckles and challenges.

Next up, we have Aliens: Dark Descent, which is set to test your strategic mettle on the PS4 and PS5. This intense real-time strategy game demands you lead a squad of colonial marines to stave off a terrifying Xenomorph outbreak on Moon Lethe. Your crew will face iconic foes, traitorous operatives from the Weyland-Yutani Corporation, and new horrors unique to this game. The stakes are high with its permadeath feature, ensuring that every decision you make can have lasting consequences.

And if you ever dreamt of becoming a creature tamer, Temtem lets you live out that fantasy on the PS5. Embark on a journey across the diverse islands of the Airborne Archipelago, encountering and taming new species along the way. Whether you’re battling fellow tamers on sunny beaches, trading with friends in volcanic fields, or facing off against the notorious Clan Belsoto, Temtem is an adventure that celebrates cooperation and friendly competition.

These games aren’t the only attractions this December; they’re part of a broader celebration tying in with PlayStation’s 30th anniversary. The lineup includes engaging events like tournaments, free online multiplayer weekends, and early peeks at classic games.

Moreover, December is bringing some classic favorites to PlayStation Plus Premium Members. On December 10th, Sly 2: Band of Thieves and Sly 3: Honor Among Thieves join the lineup, alongside Naughty Dog’s beloved Jak and Daxter: The Precursor Legacy. Each of these classics offers nostalgia and timeless gameplay that continues to entertain.

Let’s not forget the free online multiplayer weekend happening from December 6th to 8th. It’s an opportunity to dive into multiplayer modes without needing a PlayStation Plus membership, applicable to both PS4 and PS5 titles.

To add even more excitement, a variety of esports tournaments will feature fan-favorites like EA Sports FC 25, NBA 2K25, and Tekken 8 during that same weekend. Competitors stand a chance to win exclusive in-game prizes by showcasing their skills.

In another gesture to commemorate the anniversary, PlayStation is hosting a sweepstakes from December 10th to 23rd, offering an ample amount of PS Plus Premium memberships to be won, celebrating with players globally.

For movie enthusiasts, the Sony Pictures Core Offer from December 3rd to 9th offers significant discounts on top movies. Meanwhile, a special movie credit promo will run from December 10th to January 10th for those purchasing a 12-month PlayStation Plus membership.

In all, December promises to be a festive month for PlayStation Plus members, with a wide array of games and activities that reflect the platform’s diverse offerings. Whether you’re exploring unique co-op adventures, engaging in strategic battles, or revisiting cherished classics, this December lineup ensures there’s something for everyone. And it’s all wrapped up in the spirit of PlayStation’s 30 years of gaming excellence.
