Dark Descent: Temtem – PlayStation Blog

Dive into the realm of cooperative chaos with a new wave of games. This December’s free offerings for PlayStation Plus members promise thrilling adventures, strategic survival, and creature collection with “It Takes Two,” “Aliens: Dark Descent,” and “Temtem,” all hitting the library on December 3rd.

But before we dive into these exciting titles, let’s talk about some of the fantastic activities PlayStation has in store as part of their 30th-anniversary celebrations. This December, look forward to tournaments, an online multiplayer weekend, and exclusive sneak peeks at classic games. More details to follow!

Now, let’s get back to the lineup!

First up is “It Takes Two” available on PS4 and PS5. This game reinvents co-op play with its genre-defying platform adventure, tailor-made for two players. You can choose to play online or on the same screen, and even invite a friend for free using the Friend’s Pass. Players take control of Cody and May, two humans who find themselves transformed into dolls, navigating a whimsical world full of surprises to mend their broken relationship. The game is packed with laugh-out-loud moments and creative challenges—imagine piloting underpants or fighting mobster squirrels! The entire experience beautifully blends story and gameplay, offering a wild ride you won’t soon forget.

Next, we have “Aliens: Dark Descent” available on both PS4 and PS5. Prepare to lead a squad of battle-hardened marines in this real-time strategy game. Your mission? Thwart a Xenomorph outbreak on Moon Lethe. You’ll battle classic Xenomorphs and human adversaries while exploring open levels and utilizing strategic commands. Beware though; each move could be your last, as the enemy learns and adapts to your tactics, and death is permanent.

For PS5 owners, get ready for “Temtem.” Step into the shoes of a Temtem tamer, explore the Airborne Archipelago, and capture unique species along your journey. Battle other tamers, trade creatures, and rise against the menacing Clan Belsoto. Your goal? To prove yourself as the ultimate tamer by defeating Dojo Leaders and preventing a dark plot to overthrow the Archipelago.

All of these fantastic games will be part of your PlayStation Plus collection from December 3 to January 6.

As we prepare for these new games, don’t forget to add Hot Wheels Unleashed 2 – Turbocharged, Ghostwire: Tokyo, and Death Note Killer Within to your library by December 2nd.

PlayStation’s 30th anniversary brings even more to celebrate with a Premium Game Trial of “Warhammer 40K Space Marine 2,” dropping into service along with other nostalgic releases such as “Sly 2: Band of Thieves,” “Sly 3: Honor Among Thieves,” and “Jak and Daxter: The Precursor Legacy,” all arriving on December 10th.

And that’s not all—mark your calendar for a free online multiplayer weekend from December 6 to 8. Get a taste of online gaming with PS5 and PS4 titles without a PlayStation Plus subscription.
