Like Microsoft’s Xbox Game Pass, PlayStation Plus gives subscribers access to a library of games alongside a variety of online features. 

The Essential tier allows players access to a select number of games that rotate monthly, as well as enabling online multiplayer for £6.99 a month. Extra is available for £10.99 and gives subscribers access to Game Catalogue, a library of “hundreds of games from genre-defining blockbusters to innovative indies”. Premium adds more classic titles and game trials to the offering for £13.49 a month.

Earlier this month, three new titles were added to the Essential tier – Need For Speed: Unbound, Disney Epic Mickey: Rebrushed and Core Keeper. Yesterday (January 14), Sony confirmed the games that will be made available for Premium and Extra subscribers this January.

The PlayStation Plus Game Catalog lineup for January includes:

Resident Evil Village
Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth
Expeditions: A MudRunner Game
A Quiet Place: The Road Ahead

Resident Evil Village (PS5, PS4) – January 20 for Premium and Extra

Four titles are set to leave the service later this month – Like A Dragon Gaiden: The Man Who Erased His Name, SD Gundam Battle Alliance, Sayonara Wild Hearts and Monopoly Plus.

Last year, Sony announced that PS Plus would be “shifting focus” to the PS5 in 2026. “PS4 games will no longer be a key benefit and will only be occasionally offered for PlayStation Plus Monthly Games and Game Catalog starting January 2026,” explained a statement. “We may still provide titles that can be playable on both PS4 and PS5 consoles after this date.”

According to reports, the PS6 is due to launch in 2027 alongside a handheld console to rival the Nintendo Switch 2. However, some experts have warned that the Grand Theft Auto 6 delay could push the next wave of consoles to 2028.

In other news, Elon Musk has claimed AI will be able to create and release Grand Theft Auto 6 before the official launch of the highly-anticipated sequel later this year.
