Sony also released a video via its PlayStation blog, showcasing its upcoming library of free games to members during January.

PlayStation Plus is offering “Don’t Starve,” a wilderness survival game developed by Kiel Entertainment as part of the Instant Game Collection for the PS4 during January. It will also be offering Irrational Games’ 2013 first-person shooter “Bioshock Infinite,” 505 Games’ adventure game “Brothers: A Tale of Two Sons” and Ninja Theory’s action-adventure hack and slash title “DmC: Devil May Cry” for the PlayStation 3.

The handheld PS Vita will also receive two titles, including Team 17’s “Worms: Battle Island” and Climax Studios’ educational title “Smart A--"

Free games are only available to PlayStation Plus subscribers, which costs $49.99 annually, or $9.99 per individual month. European subscribers will be able to play the PS4’s “Don’t Starve,” while also gaining access to 2K Games’ “Borderlands 2” and “DmC: Devil May Cry.” European Vita owners will also receive Japan Studio’s action adventure “Soul Sacrifice” and Aksys Games’ 2D fighter “BlazBlue: Continuum Shift Extend.”
