3 PlayStation Plus Games to Try This Weekend (February 28-March 2)
The last weekend of the month often feels a bit awkward. While many of us will be immersed in Monster Hunter Wilds, others might find themselves waiting for the next batch of PlayStation Plus games arriving on Tuesday. While we know what those will be, there are still games to occupy your time this weekend. March isn’t packed with major upcoming PS5 titles aside from Assassin's Creed: Shadows, making it an ideal time to explore some fantastic games on Plus that you might have overlooked upon their initial release.
Session: Skate Sim
Session: Skate Sim - Launch Trailer | PS5 & PS4 Games
For months, Activision has been hinting at a Tony Hawk Pro Skater 3+4 reveal, but we will finally find out more about this franchise on March 4 when the countdown reaches zero. Ratings and leaks have mostly confirmed it will align with our expectations, but if you want to get your skateboarding fix early, Session: Skate Sim is your best bet on Plus, given that there are no Tony Hawk games available. As the title suggests, this is more of a skate sim than an arcade game like Tony Hawk, offering a unique experience reminiscent of '90s skateboarding videos shot with a low-angle, fish-eye lens perspective. There are no specific goals, so the enjoyment you derive from it is entirely up to you.

Sayonara Wild Hearts’ Captivating New PS5 Mode is Worth the Extra Purchase
Six years after its first release, Sayonara Wild Hearts returns, now improved for PlayStation 5. During the 2025 Annapurna Interactive Showcase, it was announced that developer Simogo’s playable pop album would launch a PS5 version today. This enhanced version of Sayonara Wild Hearts offers several exciting additions, making it the perfect time to revisit this stylish gem or experience it for the first time.
Before diving into the details of Sayonara Wild Hearts’ PS5 version, let's review the technical enhancements. Firstly, if you own the game on PS4, you can upgrade to the PS5 version for free. The PS5 version supports 4K resolution at 120 frames per second, which enhances the vibrant neon color palette. While Simogo has also integrated haptic feedback through the DualSense controller, my experience with this feature was somewhat lackluster. There are a few vibrations synced with the music, but it doesn’t fully utilize the more complex adaptive triggers of the DualSense.
The Best PS5 Pro Games for 2025
The standard PlayStation 5 already delivers impressive visuals and decent performance, but that hasn’t prevented Sony from introducing the more powerful PlayStation 5 Pro.

However, not every game includes PS5 Pro modes, so we've compiled a list of the top PS5 Pro-enhanced games currently available.
