Members in the Premium tier of PlayStation Plus have access to a brand-new trial, as Sony adds LEGO 2K Drive to the collection. PS Plus Premium members get some notable benefits over the other tiers, as they can play select PS1, PS2, and PSP titles at no extra cost.
Users in this tier also get access to trials, a unique feature that lets them play specific games for a limited time. The duration varies between games, with many of them offering two to three hours of gameplay. Sony regularly updates the library of time-limited game trials available to PS Plus Premium users, with LEGO 2K Drive being the latest addition to the lineup.
As revealed by PlayStation Game Size, PS Plus Premium subscribers can now play LEGO 2K Drive for up to two hours, allowing them to get hands-on experience with the title. Fans should note that this timer starts upon launching the game, so they need to close the application from the PS5 menu to stop the countdown. While two hours may not seem like a lot of time, it's probably enough to get an early impression of the gameplay mechanics and features of LEGO 2K Drive.
LEGO 2K Drive was released in May 2023, and it received a mixed to positive response from critics. Its PS5 version has a score of 73 on Metacritic, but it looks like gamers have some issues with LEGO 2K Drive, as the user score is sitting at a much lower rating of 5.1. Regardless, this trial should help PS Plus Premium subscribers in forming their opinion of the game if they decide to try it out.
Players can take advantage of this feature to play a wide variety of games for a limited period. This includes critically acclaimed titles like God of War Ragnarok and Persona 5 Royal, as well major releases from 2023 like Hogwarts Legacy. While most games allow users to play for a few hours, fans should note that the trial for Hogwarts Legacy only lasts for 45 minutes.
In addition to trials, PS Plus Premium get to play a bunch of new games every month at no extra cost. Sony added It Takes Two, Sniper Elite 5, Undertale, World War Z, and more to PS Plus Extra in July 2023, with Premium members also getting access to Gravity Crash Portable, Twisted Metal, and Twisted Metal 2. The full lineup for August is yet to be revealed, but Sea of Stars is confirmed to be a day one release on PS Plus Extra and Xbox Game Pass.
