First-person shootin’ is the theme for PlayStation Plus’ excellent June lineup, which has a pair of titles that should make genre fans happy.

Star Wars Battlefront II starts things off, a game that was received much better than its predecessor at launch, and has improved since. That initial reception is likely because, unlike the series-rebooting BF1, Battlefront II actually had a story mode. It might not be the deepest of things, but the story, which followed an Imperial pilot through the original trilogy and into the sequels, was very welcome indeed. Remember, these were the days pre-Fallen Order. Single player Star Wars wasn’t easy to come by.

As for the multiplayer, well you know what to expect there. Big battles in the Star Wars universe are the star, with plenty of characters to play as and vehicles to pilot.

As for Call of Duty: World War II, that’s a fairly similar story. Featuring a solid campaign, WWII won’t blow you away with its story, even though it’s a fun play-through. It’s multiplayer mode though, should scratch the itch for CoD-adherents looking to get back into action.

Both games are free for PS+ subscribers through July 6th. WWII is available right now, with Battlefront II hitting free status tomorrow.

Star Wars: Battlefront II

Meet your destiny as Luke Skywalker on Death Star II. Get boots on the ground in massive Clone Wars conflicts. Lead the First Order to dominance as Kylo Ren. Rebel against the Empire. Crush the Resistance. 

Join the action and enjoy more than 25 free game updates since launch – including online Co-Op, massive offline battles against AI foes in Instant Action, and the non-linear, multiplayer tug-of-war between planetary surfaces and capital ships in Capital Supremacy. Be the hero in the ultimate Star Wars battle fantasy. 

Star Wars Battlefront II will be available from Tuesday, June 2.

Call of Duty: World War II

It’s a return to the past in more ways than one as Call of Duty once more reimagines the theater of war that first inspired the blockbuster franchise. In the game’s riveting campaign, play a vital, frontline role across Europe in multiple missions directly inspired by key moments from the real world conflict. Switch over to multiplayer  to battle it out alongside — and against — other players. 

Eager to play? Good news – Call of Duty: WWII is already available for download!
