We've entered a new month which means it is time for a new PlayStation Plus update. For February, PS+ Essential subscribers can expect three new games, including Square Enix's new Splatoon-inspired shooter, Foamstars.

Foamstars was announced during a PlayStation Showcase last year as one of Sony's major upcoming live service games for PS5. While Nintendo's shooter, Splatoon, has players running around with paint guns, Square Enix's Foamstars replaces this with colourful foam and takes on more of an anime aesthetic. The game will be launching day-one into PS+, likely in hopes of attracting millions of players swiftly, just as Rocket League did back in the day.

The second game joining the PS+ Essential library this month is Rollerdrome, a highly-praised indie game from Roll7, combining fast movement and fluid motion with visceral combat. It is a shooter-skater hybrid and is pretty unique in the shooter space.

The final game coming to PS+ this month is Steelrising, a PS5-only title set in an alternate history verion of Paris, in which the French Revolution was suppressed by a robotic army.

Subscribers will get a bonus perk this month too, with a new Fall Guys Icons Pack, offering skins for characters like Ratchet, Clank and Aloy. If you happen to be a PS+ Premium or Deluxe member, you'll also get access to a two-hour free trial for Marvel's Spider-Man 2.

All of these new PS+ games and perks will be available to claim starting on the 6th of February.
