Sony has already come out with the upcoming month's list of free playstation games under the PS Plus program.

All in all, there would be five free games for the Playstation 4 and three for the Playstation 3. The handheld system PS Vita, meanwhile, will get four free downloadable games.

Topping the list for the Playstation 4 games included in the May PS Plus list is "Ether One". This title is a puzzle game set in first-person where players must restore the broken minds of mentally ill patients through completing puzzle challenges.

Additionally, there would also be "Guacamelee: Super Turbo Championship Edition", a platformer and brawler 2D scrolling game inspired by Mexican folklores. Players get to explore worlds, challenges bosses using a unique and challenging fight system, and play with friends with an alternative play co-op. The title also features a cross between platforming and puzzle solving styles mixed with humor unique to the game.

For racing fans, the minimalist "Race the Sun" is included for PS4, PS3, and PS Vita owners. Players must compete against challenges that include racing a setting sun.

There is also "The Unfinished Swan" from developer Giant Sparrow. In the game, players are tasked to complete a white world by splashing paint all over the canvass. "Hohokum", meanwhile, is an exploration game that started out as a PS4 exclusive but is now available for both PS3 and PS Vita. In the game, players get to explore a candy-colored world and meet new characters amidst a relaxing background of incredible soundtracks.

Exclusive for the PS Vita is "Murasaki Baby", a game where players must guide the main character, Baby, through the plot set in a ghoulish, gothic and nightmarish landscape.

All the games under the May list for the PS Plus program is available for download starting on May 5 and will last throughout the whole month.
