Urban Trial Freestyle Free This Week For PS Plus, Contrast Rotating Out
Have you downloaded (or at least “purchased” the licenses) for all of your December PlayStation Plus Instant Game Collection titles? If not make some time to do that soon, as games will start rotating off the service in the near future, including two from this month.
When the PlayStation Store updates tomorrow, Urban Trial Freestyle for PlayStation Vita will become free for Plus members. This marks the final game in December’s lineup.
This is also your last week to get Contrast for PlayStation 4 and Grid 2 for PlayStation 3. Starting on January 7, a new PS4 game will join the collection. Klei’s Don’t Starve will be free from launch for PlayStation Plus members.

Our Take
We didn’t love Urban Trial Freestyle on the PS3 (and the Vita version is similar), but after a strong lineup in December and an equally impressive set of offerings in January, I’m more than willing to forgive this. With Don’t Starve right around the corner, even if you pass up this week’s game, you’ll have something to look forward to on January 7.
I’d like to ask you to support Game Informer’s continued coverage of games with a subscription. For less than two dollars per issue, we mail you a full year of 10 print magazines, each with cover stories and preview features filled with exclusive details about the most exciting upcoming games. We profile and interview game creators. We look back on the rich history of gaming, and we celebrate what’s next.
Here on the website, we offer much of our content for free, including game reviews, daily news, videos, event coverage, and more – all with minimal ads.
We do so with a small editorial team, alongside contributing paid writers from around the world – over 65 individuals from 9 countries around the world, just in the last couple of years.
It’s not possible without support.
In a time when game makers and games coverage have faced hard struggles and layoffs, the future of this 30+ year magazine and community is at risk. Our new standalone magazine subscription is the number one way you can keep us alive – and we believe you’ll get a pretty fantastic gaming magazine in your mailbox every few weeks for your trouble.
Thank you.
