*PlayStation Plus Game Catalog and PlayStation Plus Premium/Deluxe lineups may differ by region. Please check PlayStation Store on release day.
finally some jrpgs, good month for me.
PLS add the old flatout and burnout series sony! 🥲
I love these as a kid!
Where is the red dead redemption 2?
Very very bad. Plus no longer buy worth buying whatever the plus Extra and Premium. We have to go on (GAME PASS) from this.
Why are you at least not adding a new game?
Why do you always add games for previous years, while 90% of the gamers have played.
We will no longer buy plus !!!
Very Weak Line-up.
Is this a joke???
Feels like they stopped trying by now…. and what felt like a nice adition to the service, adding PSVR2 games each month turned ou to be just a random occurrence.
I cannot help but compare this to Microsoft’s Game Pass, while Xbox users are getting premium top just released games – just look at what they are adding this month- Doom the dark ages, Revenge of the Savage Planet, Dragonball Xenoverse 2, etc we get what… Sandland? A game which was released more than a year ago, and quite honestly is a very bad game.
I am just disapointed with myself for having renewed my subscription last black friday, a mistake I won’t make again if they keep this up.
The selections have been weak month after month. PlayStation extra/premium has lost so much value and much of its appeal. I can’t help but feel disappointed
Very excited for this list of games. Especially a story of seasons, it’s a wonderful life. Can’t wait to enjoy what looks to be an awesome game.Thanks so much sony
And not a looker in the bunch. What a shame.
Reasons why I gave up and “downgraded” to Essentials. Wait on the great ones until the majority of folks already bought and finished em, toss in a bunch of fluff or unknown games…especially with Premium, considering the last good decision there was making the PS2 Sly trilogy playable both for Premium and non subscribers who purchased em (compared to the ridiculous amount of locked-to-Premium-streaming-only titles).
Yes very good ttles, I appreciate it but the most annoying issue is Sandland. I am using the Turkish PS Store. The game is absent in the store. You can’t buy it or even search it. And tomorrow it will be in the game catalogue but there is no access point to the game for Turkish users.Whenever it gets to update the membership prices Sony always finds a way to make equal in every region. We are paying almost the same price as UK region but can only buy a deluxe tier instead of premium. If we have a Playstation Portal controller it means no more than a junk for us. We can’t play cloud games just because of the deluxe tier. And now we can not play all the line up provided by Sony for the members. Why, because the games are regionlocked for some storesfor an unknown reason! It is unacceptable. This has to be fixed.
Please read this! I wish you would make this PlayStation 2 game available on PSN: Lord of the Rings – Return of the King. It was by far the best Lord of the Rings game! Many people are saying this on YouTube/social media. You would be making my childhood dream come true!
I cant wait to play help wanted 1 i already have help wanted 2 and now i can play help wanted 1. So poggers games.
So basically we’re losing VR games from the catalog and not having any new VR games to be included in the premium/deluxe? Ok.
PlayStation has been slacking with the classics lately. This is bad
Sand Land is not available in some countries. Be aware before subscribing
No Classics this month? Such a major letdown.
I got it on a really good sale a while back.
If you remove a game like GTA V they need a big hitter to replace it. There’s nothing in this update that comes close
can believe you removed GTA 5 it only reason i was playing my portal please bring it back
Not a lot of new games being added and more being removed like GTA5 and next month my PS plus extra price is going up. Thanks for upping the price and diminishing the service. I’ll see how the few months go and decide whether Plus Extra is worth it anymore.
I just had a chance to check the classics and was very disappointed. WHEN will the Ratchet & Clank PS2 emulated games be put on there? Not just those, so many nostalgic games for PS1/2 era with tons of possibilities. But here we are…
Sand Land missing at Turkey’s psn store…
