This article discusses the PlayStation Plus subscription service and highlights some of its best games, focusing on titles leaving the service in January 2025 and a new Essential title.
The PlayStation Plus service, launched in June 2022, offers three tiers: Essential, Extra, and Premium, each with increasing levels of access to online features, games, and classic titles.
Several notable games are leaving the PlayStation Plus Extra and Premium catalogs on January 21st, 2025. Among the most significant departures are:
-
Resident Evil 2 (Remake): A critically acclaimed remake of the classic survival horror title, offering two compelling campaigns and challenging gameplay. While completing both campaigns before the game's removal might be difficult, a single playthrough is achievable.
-
Dragon Ball FighterZ: A highly accessible yet deeply strategic fighting game from Arc System Works, known for its excellent combat system. While the online component is a significant draw, the single-player content, though present, may become repetitive during a short play period.
A new PlayStation Plus Essential game, The Stanley Parable: Ultra Deluxe, will be available from January 7th to February 3rd, 2025.
