Social deduction gameFirst Class Troublereleased on Steam Early Access earlier this year, with confirmation of a PS4 and PS5 port coming later. Players will not have to wait much longer, asFirst Class Troubleis the first confirmed game for November 2021’s PS Plus lineup.
One of the biggest trends to develop in gaming this year has been the social deduction game. Popularized byAmong Us, these sorts of games task players with completing objectives while actively trying to survive against and determine the identity of a killer in their midst. Social deduction has grown so popular, in fact, that other games are starting to feature game modes that offer similar experiences, likeFortnite’s Imposters game modewhich recently receivedAmong Us' blessing.First Class Troubleappeared in a leak for next month’s PS Plus games, and it appears the leak was accurate.

Sony confirmed in the latest State of Play, thatFirst Class Troubleis coming as one of November 2021’s free PS Plus games for PS4 and PS5. The game is set in a futuristic, art-deco space station, where six Residents must try to escape, though it won’t be easy, as two of them are Personoids, robots that look indistinguishable from the humans who are tasked with stopping the Residents. As is the case with other social deduction games, it is a game of trust as there are times where multiple players are required to progress through a certain route, allowing Personoids to potentially win over other players, then eventually stab them in the back.First Class Troubleis developed by Invisible Wallsand Versus Evil.
SinceFirst Class Troubleappeared on the recent PS Plus game leak, there is credence that the other games listed will eventually be confirmed as well. Supposedly joiningFirst Class TroubleareKnockout CityandKingdom of Amalur: Re-Reckoning, the former being an addictive, cartoonish dodgeball game, and the latter being a remaster of the original action role-playing game from 2012. Additionally, in celebration of PS VR’s 5th Anniversary,Sony is giving free VR games to PS Plus membersmonthly starting in November. The leak suggests thatThe Walking Dead: Saints and Sinnersis one of the included titles.
There is a little something for everyone in next month’s PS Plus game lineup if the other rumored titles turn out to be true. WhereFortnitewas called out byAmong Usfor its lack of originality with its Imposters mode,First Class Troubleseems like a pretty unique take on the social deduction genre, from its aesthetics to gameplay mechanics. Combine this potential with a more competitive, arcade-like game inKnockout City, a single-player RPG inKingdom of Amalur: Re-Reckoning, and a terrifying VR experience inThe Walking Dead: Saints and Sinners, and there is a ton of variety in free games to play.
First Class Troubleis currently available on PC, and launches November 2 on PS4, and PS5.
