There are quite a few games available to play for free on PlayStation Plus in February 2016, and the official list for the month has just been made available.  As usual, PS4, PS3, and PS Vita users have a lot to look forward to, but there isn't really much word on March 2015. 

According to the official PlayStation Blog, the first game offered for the PS4, PS3, and PS Vita is Helldivers: Democracy Strikes Back.  This is set in a "satirical and dystopian future", with combat against three invading enemy species.  It is a top-down shooter that focuses a lot on teamwork, with squad battle to become a hero of the Federation. 

PS4 players also have access to Nom Galaxy, which has a lot of gameplay for one game like platforming, mining, base construction, resource management, tower defense, and making soup.  Yes, the player is an "Astroworker" for SoupCo, providing different soups to keep the aliens filled, but there is some competition.  Yes, this is a game about becoming the most powerful soup company in the galaxy, and if that is what you are into, then you will love it.

Exclusively for the PS3, there are two choices.  The first is Grid Autosport, which is a racing game described on Steam as "it's all about the teams, the rivals, and the race as you become a driver for hire, specializing in your favorite disciplines or conquering them all in an intense world of professional motorsport".

The other game exclusively for the PS3 is Persona 4 Arena Ultimax.  This game hails from Japan, and it is a serious fighting game that is a sequel to Persona 4 Arena, which is a follow-up to Shin Megami Tensei: Persona 4.  Like most fighting games, it has a rich roster of characters and a lot of campaigns. 

The PS Vita also has two choices for the month, and one of them is Lemmings Touch.  The Lemmings series stems back to the early nineties, and it is about getting a whole herd of creatures from one point to the other without any dying along the way.  According to the PlayStation site, this version of Lemmings Touch has 100 levels with worlds of Crystal Caverns, Hell Ancient Egypt, space, and Candy Land. 

The last game available for the PS Vita is Nova-111, and it is quite an interesting game.  It is described on Steam as "Tactical Rogue-like Combat. Turn-Based and Real-Time strategy sci-fi adventure. Nova-111 embarks on a journey to recover the scientists lost in it's alien worlds. Explore, battle and solve clever puzzles in the name of Science. Create custom levels in the Level Editor".

It looks like there is a lot for PlayStation Plus subscribers to play for free for February.  There isn't any word on what will be available for March 2016, but since February hasn't even happened yet, there probably won't be at least for a few more weeks.  There still are a lot of games that can be played before January ends
