PlayStation players are anxiously looking forward to the new year — not only because 2017 is a new beginning, but also because of Sony's PlayStation Plus program. Fans are waiting for the announcement of the free games that will arrive in January 2017, but, right now, there are only rumors.

Numerous reports are predicting various games that may be released as part of the PlayStation Plus program. The first game is "Titanfall," a Respawn Entertainment game that was originally released in March 2014. In the game, players are required to control pilots in order to progress through the shooter game, which was met with wide critical acclaim. Its popularity and success led to a sequel, which was released in October this year.

The second game, according to speculation, is "Gravity Rush 2." Although the title has yet to be released, there is talk of a special demo that may be made available on the PlayStation Plus. This means that PS Plus subscribers might get an early look into the upcoming game in January, which is scheduled for a release in the same month.

Its predecessor, "Gravity Rush," was previously included in the PlayStation Plus program earlier this year. Published by Sony, the title is an action-adventure video game that allows players to control gravity, thus giving them the freedom to move in different ways.

Lastly, the finale game rumored to be included on the PlayStation Plus January list is "Ratchet & Clank." The title was only released in April 2016, so its inclusion will definitely come as a surprise to fans. However, given that it's the new year, the game may serve as a nice treat to those who have been patiently waiting. 

"Ratchet & Clank" is a platformer game that deals with science fiction. It was published by Sony and follows the titular characters, Ratchet and Clank, as they journey across the universe while simultaneously taking down enemies that threaten to destroy it. 

Since nothing has been confirmed so far, though, readers are advised to take this news with a grain of salt.
