Guacamelee! and other indies headline PlayStation Plus free games for May

New PlayStation Plus freebies get rotated in on May 5, which makes Guacamelee: Super Turbo Championship Edition's inclusion all the more appropriate.

As April comes to a close, Sony has revealed which games will be rotated in as part of its monthly PlayStation Plus freebies for the month of May. The lineup this time around is indie-riffic.

The PlayStation Plus lineup for May is headlined by the lucha libre beat-em-up Guacamelee: Super Turbo Championship Edition for PlayStation 4. PS4 owners can also pick up the first-person puzzler Ether One. Then it's a threesome of Cross-Buy titles, with The Unfinished Swan, Race the Sun, and Hohokum all available for PS4, PS3, and Vita. Finally, Vita owners can grab the oddball puzzler Murasaki Baby.

The latest round of free games for PlayStation Plus will be rotated in on Cinco de Mayo, appropriate given that Drinkbox's lucha brawler is at the top of the list.

Ozzie has been playing video games since picking up his first NES controller at age 5. He has been into games ever since, only briefly stepping away during his college years. But he was pulled back in after spending years in QA circles for both THQ and Activision, mostly spending time helping to push forward the Guitar Hero series at its peak. Ozzie has become a big fan of platformers, puzzle games, shooters, and RPGs, just to name a few genres, but he’s also a huge sucker for anything with a good, compelling narrative behind it. Because what are video games if you can't enjoy a good story with a fresh Cherry Coke?
