5 of the Best PS4 Games You Can Play for Free

Apex Legends

Do you like Overwatch? Then you’ll probably like this game.

Apex Legends is set in the same universe as Titanfall 2, both of which were created by Respawn Entertainment. The former game is a wonderful fusion of Hero Shooter and Battle Royale.

There are nine selectable Legends at the moment (with a tenth on the way before Season 1 ends), each with their own unique abilities and play styles, giving players a lot of room to work with. You'll experience fast-paced action, a stellar pinging system that allows you to effectively communicate with your teammates even without a mic, and a pretty robust selection of weapons and modifications.

Keep in mind that Apex Legends is NOT Fortnite. If you are a casual player, then you probably won’t have the best time in King’s Canyon. Apex Legends is a skilled gamer’s Battle Royale, and if you want to succeed, you’re going to need to put the work in. I promise though, the payoff is worth it.

Apex Legends had an incredible first month back in February, reaching 50 million unique accounts registered, and at one point, it briefly surpassed Fortnite as the most-watched game on Twitch.

March wasn’t as kind to Apex Legends after the initial hype died down. The Twitch numbers took noticeable hits across the board, and Apex Legends sank to rank 7 for most-viewed games on Twitch. The community was also let down pretty bad after the long-anticipated Season 1 Battle Pass was released and turned out to be mediocre overall.

Don’t count Apex Legends out just yet, however. Many of the major eSports organizations including TSM, NRG eSports, SK Telecom T1 and more have already started filling up their own Apex Legends rosters. The game’s Hero Shooter aspects give it the potential to succeed and thrive as an eSport where Fortnite has floundered. Take a dive into King’s Canyon, and see for yourself what all the hype is about.

Warframe

Coming in at number three is yet another FPS game, Warframe. I promise the whole list isn’t just shooter titles.

Warframe is a co-op third person shooter, that combines aspects of both the FPS and RPG genres. Some of the people behind Warframe also worked on several older Unreal Tournament titles, so these folks know how to make an FPS game.

By completing missions and grinding either alone or in a team, players can further customize their frame (armor) to a myriad of different specifications that will fit any player’s play style. They will also be able to earn new weapons and weapon mods along the way.

The game has a ton of PVE and PVP content and is not pay-to-win. Everything can be grinded out in-game which is always a huge plus since no one likes paywall content (especially people viewing a best free game list). It’s been six years since the release of Warframe and the game currently has over 50 million players. With a player count that large, there has to be something really good here, right? Why not see for yourself?
