There are only a few days remaining for the month of February, which means that the PlayStation Plus (PS Plus) subscribers have something great to look forward to in the coming days. By March, Sony is expected to unveil a new lineup of free video games in the PS Plus catalog. The same with the previous PlayStation Plus lineups, the March 2018 list is expected to be headlined by a popular AAA title. According to the latest predictions, this huge video game might just be the 2015 hit action-adventure title "The Order: 1886."

Sony has yet to announce the final list of free games for the PlayStation Plus March 2018 lineup, although there are rumors that the list will include at least one AAA title, and that could be the popular steampunk title from game developer Ready at Dawn, "The Order: 1886." While it might not be as popular and as well-received as the previous big titles included in the monthly PS Plus lineup, "The Order: 1886" has been known for its impressive depiction of a steampunk version of London City. Some critics also gave positive remarks for the game's film presentation.

"The Order: 1886" has seen a dip in sales for the past few years, thus its price has been lowered from $20 to a mere $5 at times. With this, it is likely that Sony will easily get the game to the PlayStation Plus free games lineup next month. The fact that the video game was not included the last Black Friday sale could mean that Sony intends to put the game in the PS Plus catalog in the near future.

Aside from the huge video games, the PlayStation Plus free games list often includes a handful of smaller indie titles. The predictions suggest that the March 2018 lineup will have popular and well-received indie games such as the PS4 exclusive game in 2015, "Bastion." The game has been compared to "Abzu" and "Super Meat Boy" for its impressive gameplay and storytelling for an indie title, and these mentioned games also made their way to the PS Plus catalog.

According to Express UK, the PlayStation Plus March 2018 free games list will be announced on the last Wednesday of the month, Feb. 28th. On March 6, the free PS4, PS3 and PS Vita titles will arrive on the PS Plus catalog.
