A gaming sub free from the hype and oversaturation of current releases, catering to gamers who wait at least 12 months after release to play a game. Whether it's price, waiting for bugs/issues to be patched, DLC to be released, don't meet the system requirements, or just haven't had the time to keep up with the latest releases.

I've had a subscription to PS Plus for years now but rarely look at the games (I need to get an external drive or be less hesitant to delete stuff).

What hidden gems are there in the backlog? I have a PS4 by the way, but I think the PS5 is too new to have hidden gems.

There's some bangers on ps+. I'm a pc gamer but I've peeked (extensively) at the catalogue and while I still feel Xbox game pass is better value for money, here are some:

Abzu: beautiful game about exploring an abandoned underwater environment

Bloodborne: not "hidden" but a must play

Concrete Genie: Cute little game about grafitti creatures

Dandara: a unique platformer with a great style

Dead Cells: fantastic roguelike

Ghostrunner: amazing cyberpunk parkour game. If you like movement, you'll love it.

Everspace: great arcade space game.

INSIDE: wonderful little game that will have you thinking about what it's story really meant

Magicka: incredibly silly magic game

My Friend Pedro: gunslinging slow motion stunt combat action

Moonlighter: roguelike shopkeeping game, think Reccetear

Party Hard: stealth party killing spree action

Spiritfarer: beatiful game about helping the dead find peace before moving on

Vermintide 2: one of the best horde games out there.

Other ones that are less hidden gems but I conside must plays or at least worth checking out: Bloodborne, Death Stranding, Dishonored, Doom, the Middle Earth games, Shadow of the Collosus
