PlayStation Plus Games For May: ‘Farming Simulator 19’ and ‘Cities Skylines’

In perhaps the most baffling reveal in recent memory, Sony’s PlayStation+ titles for May have been announced: Farming Simulator 19 and Cities: Skylines. Sony describes both titles:
Do you have what it takes to develop a small, bustling community into a sprawling megacity? In Cities: Skylines, the acclaimed city builder sim by Paradox Interactive, you make the decisions that will see your city flourish or fail. You’ll need strategic smarts to keep your burgeoning ecosystem from collapse, ensuring your ever-growing populace stay happy and the industries that are the lifeblood of your expanding metropolis continue to thrive.
Stressed by the bustling city life and eager to tackle a more sedate livelihood? Rural escapism awaits with Farming Simulator 19! Developer GIANTS Software has packed in a wealth of agricultural pastimes to lose yourself in as you set out to maintain a homestead. Harvest crops, raise livestock, tackle forest, ride your own horses … or just jump behind the wheel of your John Deere tractor or one of over 300 authentic farming vehicles and go for a drive.
The two games are … fascinating choices. Neither would be described as the type of high-profile title meant to draw potential people in to subscribing to Sony’s service. They are long-standing simulator titles better known on PC than in the console realm. Nonetheless, they will be available starting Tuesday, May 5th, and remain available until June 1st. For now, DIRT Rally 2.0 and Uncharted 4: A Thief’s End remain available for players not so enchanted with simulators.
