Earlier this week, Sony announced thefree PS Plus Games for May 2020, and fans weren’t exactly thrilled by the lineup. Many fans have expressed their disappointment that the next pair of free games areCities: Skylines, a city building game in the vein ofSimCity, andFarming Simulator 19, a farming sim that earned mixed reviews. Some are so upset by the free PS Plus games for May 2020 that they have even signed a petition asking Sony to change the free games.
The petition can be found onChange.org, and it simply calls for Sony to change the freePS Plusgames for May 2020. The petition explains that fans were especially disappointed by the lineup, as many had gotten their hopes up by the fakeDark SoulsandDying Lightleak that suggested those critically-acclaimed titles would be the free games for May. Of course, Sony can hardly be faulted for fans getting excited over a fake leak, but that hasn’t stopped over 2,500 people from signing the petition so far.

People are still signing the petition to change the free PS Plus Games for May 2020 at the time of this writing, with the number of signatures growing every time the page is refreshed. But despite how popular the petition gets, it should be stressed that video game petitions almost never work, or even receive a response. Considering this, fans shouldn’t get too excited about the prospect ofSonychanging the free PS Plus games for May 2020.
Then again, there is a precedent for Sony changing the free PS Plus lineup. For example, there once was a time whenPES 2019was going to be part of the free PS Plus games lineup, only for that to be changed and replaced withDetroit: Become Humaninstead. However, no official explanation for the change was ever given. Some speculated that Sony made the change due to a poor reaction toPES 2019being one of the free games, whereas others think it was done to keep EA happy, sinceFIFAis in direct competition withPES 2019.
So while it’s technically possible that Sony will change the free PS Plus Games for May 2020, fans shouldn’t get their hopes up. In the meantime, there’s still time to download thefree PS Plus Games for April 2020.
