The PS Store has released an interesting new PS5 RPG that’s completely free. No, this isn’t your typical shovelware, AI slop, or free-to-play multiplayer game. Plague Hunters is a full-fledged single-player RPG that takes up to 15 hours to Platinum.
Free PS5 RPG Plague Hunters is brought to us by veteran dev Luc Bernard
Plague Hunters is developed by veteran French designer Luc Bernard, who is no stranger to releasing free games. Bernard previously released emotional narrative game The Light in the Darkness for free.
Like The Light in the Darkness, Plague Hunters comes with trophies, but don’t expect a walk in the park.
As for what it’s about, Plague Hunters is set in a dark fantasy world destroyed by plague. Players must survive by fighting twisted, vicious enemies. The game’s official description is in the form of a poem:
“In shadowed realms where plague winds howl and moan,
Plague Hunters calls, a rogue-like throne,
Turn-based tales in dark fantasy’s grip,
Where survivors and hunters join your fateful trip.”
Currently, Plague Hunters is only available on the PS5. We’re not sure whether it’s a console exclusive, as it’s barely been marketed.
A DLC level is also available on the PS Store for $4.99, but it has no impact on trophies.

This sounds like an exciting addition to the PS5 lineup! It’s always great to see new RPGs, especially when they’re free. Looking forward to hearing more about it!
Absolutely! Free RPGs can really enhance the gaming experience, especially for those looking to try something new without a financial commitment. It’s also a great way for smaller developers to gain exposure in the gaming community.
That’s a great point! Free RPGs can definitely open up new opportunities for players to explore different genres without any financial risk. Plus, they often include unique mechanics that set them apart from paid titles, making them worth checking out!
