It should be noted that the Classics Catalog is only available to PS Plus Premium subscribers. This should not be confused with the Game Catalog, which is available to both Extra and Premium subscribers and only includes modern PS4 and PS5 games.
This was not the only classic PlayStation game announced for the PS Plus Classics Catalog. During the presentation, it was also announced that the 2002 PS2 sci-fi RPG, Deus Ex: The Conspiracy, would be added. Players will not have to wait long to play the series’ first entry on modern consoles. It will be added to the Classics Catalog on June 17th.
Here are descriptions for each of the upcoming PS1 Classics Catalog additions:
Twisted Metal 3
Synopsis: “Welcome to our twisted world where the drivers are insane, the explosions apocalyptic and the weapons hard-core nasty. It’s the original and ultimate automotive combat experience!”
Twisted Metal 4
Synopsis: “High-octane attitude with a twist. Sweet Tooth and his pumped-up posse of evil henchmen have taken control of the most explosive freakshow on wheels.”
Resident Evil 2
Synopsis: “2 Separate Adventures! Command Leon Kennedy, a rookie cop who stumbles onto the carnage reporting for his first duty, or play as Claire Redfield, desperately searching for her missing brother.”
Resident Evil 3
Synopsis: “Join Jill Valentine, the heroine and amazing survivor of the notorious disaster at the mansion, as her nightmare continues. After resigning from S.T.A.R.S. Jill now prepares to head out of Raccoon City…but it’s not going to be easy. Caught in a town crawling with flesh eating zombies, more than ever she must rely on brute force and cunning to find a way to escape alive.
