The 5 best shooters that you can play for free on PS4 and PS5 thanks to a subscription

PS Plus Extra has been Sony’s new subscription model for a year, which offers you a lot of games. If you have the subscription, many different genres await you. There are also many shooters included. We show you the 5 best ones that you can gamble there.

What is PS Plus Extra? PS Plus Extra is the second tier of the PS Plus subscription on PS4 and PS5. With the subscription you can play many games from a large catalog for free. Similar to GamePass, you can expect a good mix of several genres.

What does the “best” mean? To rank, we use the Metacritic site and their critic score. The value is an average of several reviews from journalists and gaming sites. (Status: 06/23/2023)

How do we make the selection? By “Shooter” we’re referring to first-person shooters, and we’ve sorted the ranking a bit more to create a good mix. Some games are similar to shooters but mostly have different gameplay elements. So we skipped games like Deus Ex Mankind Divided.

5.Far Cry 5

developer: Ubisoft Montréal | meta score: 81 (PS4)

What kind of game is this? Far Cry 5 is a classic Ubisoft open world game. You roam the world, activate radio towers and shoot enemies out of bases.

The big highlight of Far Cry 5 is the setting. You are in rural America and are confronted by gun enthusiasts and wild animals such as bears and alligators. The villain lines up next to Vaas and Pagan Min and is a Far Cry-typical highlight.

As a religious cult leader, Joseph Seed is an interesting antagonist that is so seldom seen in blockbuster games. In addition, you can also expect lively secondary characters who are as crazy as the world itself.

4. Doom Eternal

developer: ID Software | Meta Score: 87 (PS4)

What kind of game is this? Doom (2016) has a score of 85 and would be above Far Cry 5, but we summarize the two new Doom parts together. Doom is the grandfather of today’s first-person shooters and returned in 2016. Doom Eternal continues the story of the Doom Slayer and unleashes him on Hell again.

Doom Eternal is a reinterpretation of old shooter virtues. With many weapons you shoot down different demons in levels. You have to be careful with your weapons and use them wisely, since demons have various weak points.

Those looking for a more classic shooter experience will find a wonderful piece of software in Doom (2016) and Doom Eternal. Also, both games have an amazing soundtrack by Mick Gordon that fits perfectly with the bloody action-fest.
