4 free games this month.

In today's Daily Fix: PlayStation Plus games for March have been revealed, and leading the charge is the excellent Destiny 2 expansion, The Witch Queen. Also on the list is the action game Sifu, and if you love kung-fu movies, you'll like that game. You also get Hello Neighbor 2, EA Sports F1 23, a bunch of cosmetics for The Finals, and more! In other news, Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth is out now in Japan, but if you bought the physical edition you might have a confusing time installing the game. That's because the 'play' and 'install' discs are labeled wrong. Whoops. And finally, Skull & Bones is apparently doing well according to Ubisoft, who are reporting "record player engagement." But we don't have any sales data for the game yet, so it could be like 20 people playing that game all day.

I'm kind of fascinated by what happened to Hello Neighbor. The original, a stealth horror game against a creepy AI that learned your likely movements, was hugely popular in alpha in 2016. The series was acquired by TinyBuild in 2020, and since then there has been a heroic number of spin-offs. There's one set in an amusement park, a multiplayer game called Secret Neighbor in which one small child is actually a large adult man in disguise, a direct sequel called Hello Neighbor 2, and a VR game called Search And Rescue. I think everyone got a bit of Neighbor fatigue there, lads.

This might include the original creator Nikita Kolesnikov, as (still under the auspices of TinyBuild) he's made a new thing. Currently on Steam for playtesting, the project currently known as RBO isn't falling far from the home invasion tree, as players will either be a home-owning Protector - a McCallister, if you will - or an Intruder, or Wet Bandit.
