What better way to welcome in the New Year than by hearing all about the new games coming your way through PlayStation Plus in January. We’ve got a great selection for you this month, so without further ado, let’s jump in…

New on PlayStation 4

First up this month on PS4, inFAMOUS First Light. Breakout heroine Abigail “Fetch” Walker returns in this dark, action-packed prequel to inFAMOUS Second Son. Locked up in the superhuman prison Curdun Cay, Fetch is forced to master her dazzling neon conduit powers and confront the tragic events of her past.

Next up, an atmospheric puzzle platformer set in the furthest reaches of space. The Swapper features a unique art style that uses real-world clay-models and found objects to create an explorable space station realised in unique detail and swap between different bodies to achieve otherwise impossible tasks.

New on PS Vita

First up this month on PS Vita, a throwback to classic arcade gaming with the highly addictive Woah Dave! Strive for digital glory by slaughtering aliens, stealing their loose change, and racking up the highest score possible. Easier said than done, however, as everything on the map – including your own ammo – is trying to kill you. No one ever said being a Dave was easy!

Finally this month one of gaming’s most enduring icons is back to kick butt and chew bubblegum in Duke Nukem 3D Megaton Edition! This iconic shooter features action-packed expansions and updated visuals and I for one can’t wait to get my hands on it!

Unfortunately we can’t release Duke Nukem 3D Megaton Edition in Germany so as a replacement German users can pick up Gravity Crash Ultra and blast their way to high scores, dominate the online leaderboards, tackle the fast and frantic original levels or create their own and share them with other PlayStation Plus players.

New on PlayStation 3

First up on PS3 is open world action adventure Prototype 2. Take on the role of James Heller as he goes on a quest to destroy the Blacklight virus. The story is also one of revenge, as Heller wants to confront Alex Mercer, protagonist of the original Prototype, after his family was killed in the outbreak of the virus.

Next up on PS3 DuckTales: Remastered, a beautiful reimagining of one of the most cherished 8-bit titles of all time. Embark on an authentic DuckTales adventure, as Scrooge McDuck and his three nephews Huey, Dewey and Louie travel to exotic locations throughout the world in their quest to retrieve the five Legendary Treasures.
