Just like Microsoft, Sony has already revealed their free PlayStation 4 (PS4) games for the month of January for "PS Plus" members.

PS Plus has a good lineup of free games for the month of January for their members. PlayStation 3 and PS Vita owners are also in for a treat as there are also free games for their consoles.

First off, there is "Batman: The Telltale Series," which is free for PS4 owners with PS Plus membership. Just like "The Walking Dead" series made by Telltale Games, the decisions a player makes in "Batman: The Telltale Series" will heavily affect the outcome of the game. "Batman: The Telltale Series" will be available for free starting Jan. 2.

Next up is "Deus Ex: Mankind Divided," which is the highlight of the PS Plus free games lineup. The game is a direct sequel to the game "Deus Ex: Human Revolution," which was released in 2011. The sequel is set two years after the events of the first game in a dystopian world in the year 2029. Players take on the role of the game's protagonist, a heavily-augmented Adam Jensen, as he hunts a similarly augmented terrorist group of humans which seeks to destabilize an already unstable world.

"Deus Ex: Mankind Divided" won many awards during the 2016 Canadian Video Game Awards, winning the "Best Console Game," "Best Game Design," "Best Narrative," "Best Performance," and the prestigious "Game of the Year" awards. "Deus Ex: Mankind Divided" will also be available for free starting Jan. 2.

Then, the PlayStation VR game "StarBlood Arena" will also be available for free as a PS Plus bonus, as well as "That's You," which is a PS Plus bonus as well and requires PlayLink to be accessed.

Finally, "Sacred 3," "Book of Unwritten Tales 2" for the PS3, "Psycho-Pass: Mandatory Happiness," and "Uncanny Valley" for the PS Vita are also free this January.
