Humanity is a new game coming to the Extra tier of PlayStation Plus as a day one release, and it seems to be getting great reviews from critics. Users in the higher tiers of PS Plus get a selection of new titles this month, as the catalog of games refreshes on May 16.
Sony usually doesn’t add new games as day one releases on PS Plus Extra, with this practice reserved for only a select few. As an example, Stray launched as a day one release in 2022, while Tchia came out on PS Plus Extra upon its launch in March 2023. Sony is adding a day one game titled Humanity to the Extra tier in May 2023, and it is getting great reviews from critics.
The PS5 version of Humanity has a score of 84 on Metacritic at the time of this writing, while its Top Critic Average on OpenCritic is sitting at 85. An impressive 88% of critics recommend Humanity, which is higher than that of Tchia and Stray. It should be noted that Humanity doesn’t have too many reviews as of now, so it’s possible for the average score to change in the coming days. Regardless, it seems like Sony has added another solid game to the PS Plus Extra lineup on day one.
For those unaware, Humanity is a puzzle-action game in which players control a dog with the goal of guiding a massive crowd of people across the level. Players command NPCs to jump, push, float, and more as they play through 90 story-mode stages, with user-generated content also available in the game.
Humanity is one of many games joining PS Plus Extra and Premium in May 2023, as Sony adds some notable titles to the catalog. PS Plus Extra subscribers can play Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart, Watch Dogs: Legion, Shadow of the Tomb Raider, Dishonored 2, and more at no extra cost, while PS Plus Premium users can try out Syphon Filter: Logan's Shadow and Pursuit Force among others.
Gamers should note that the titles coming to PS Plus Premium this month also come with trophy support, as the trophies for Blade Dancer: Lineage of Light, Pursuit Force, and Syphon Filter: Logan's Shadow are now live on Exophase. All of them feature a Platinum trophy as well, allowing users to further increase their collection of trophies as they play through these classic games.
