PS Plusfollows several patterns that can sometimes be hard to track, but the past few months have nailed one down on PS Plus free games. First, it has to be released on the same Tuesday as the PS Plus free games release, which is December 7. This is indeedHeavenly Bodies’ release date. Secondly, nor can it be pre-ordered, andHeavenly Bodiescan’t be. There are a few other odds and ends, but needless to say, there’s a good chanceHeavenly Bodiesis one of thePS4/PS5 games.

PS Plus Free Game for December 2021? – Heavenly Bodies
In short,Heavenly Bodiesdescribes itself as a “game about cosmonauts, the body, and the absence of gravity.” It’s a physics game coming to PC, PS4, and PS5, where players must navigate their hands and arms to pull, push, and twist themselves around the maps, all of which are based on space engineering. Overall, players will be completing tasks like constructing telescopes, performing maintenance on solar arrays, or conducting research on cosmic botany.
Players then also control every limb of their weightless cosmonaut, with various actions being important toHeavenly Bodies’ gameplay: general arm movements, leg grabbing, lever usage, kicking, pulling wire, pushing, seat and claw, twirling, and more. Players have been shown in various locations like a cupola, engine, satellite, storage room, tower, and tunnel, all befitting a stylized 70s visual aesthetic. There’ even space vehicles that can be manipulated, while elaborate machinery may serve as more than just a backdrop.
From the sounds of it,Heavenly Bodiescan get wild, but players don’t have to do it alone.Heavenly Bodiessupports local, couch co-op like many otherphysics games like it such asHuman Fall Flat. Notably, though, this wild gameplay is inspired by features of real space explorers and researchers through history.
Finally, it’s worth noting that, on the PC version, it has rebindable controls to make the gameplay a little simpler. The developer does not, however, that this is not the intended way to playHeavenly Bodies.There’s also a customizable control mode difficulty. Overall, it remains to be seen howthe game is received on PS Plus, but there’s no doubt an audience for silly physics games like this.
