Every PS Plus Extra Game Added in July 2026
Sony confirmed nine total additions across Extra and Premium this month. Seven of those titles belong to the Extra tier, and Sony continues experimenting with staggered releases in the US, UK, and Japan rather than dropping everything on a single day.
New Extra Tier Titles and Release Dates
Here’s the complete Extra catalog for July, with platform and availability noted for each entry:
- Rise of the Ronin (PS5) — available July 15 in the US and UK, July 16 in Japan, and July 21 everywhere else
- Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora (PS5) — available globally July 21
- Firefighting Simulator: Ignite (PS5) — available globally July 21
- Mighty Morphin Power Rangers: Rita’s Rewind (PS5, PS4) — available July 28 in the US, UK, and Japan; July 21 elsewhere
- Dying Light (PS4) — available July 28 in the US, UK, and Japan; July 21 elsewhere
- Citizen Sleeper 2: Starward Vector (PS5) — available July 28 in the US, UK, and Japan; July 21 elsewhere
- Snow Bros. Wonderland (PS5, PS4) — available July 28 in the US, UK, and Japan; July 21 elsewhere
Rise of the Ronin anchors the month as the headline release, letting players carve through 19th-century Japan on PS5. Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora hands subscribers an open-world adventure through Pandora, built on lore that James Cameron himself helped shape. Dying Light rounds out the pack with rooftop parkour and zombie-slaying chaos across Harran.
PlayStation Plus Extra Release Schedule Explained
Sony split this month’s PS Plus Extra additions into three separate windows instead of one bulk release. Players in the US, UK, and Japan see titles trickle in across July 15, July 21, and July 28, while every other region gets the full batch on July 21.
This staggered format started back in June 2026 and appears to be sticking around. Some subscribers see it as a way to keep engagement steady throughout the month rather than front-loading everything on release day.
PS Plus Premium Classics Joining Alongside Extra
Premium subscribers get two PS2-era classics on top of everything in the Extra tier, since Premium includes full access to the Extra catalog. Psi-Ops: The Mindgate Conspiracy and Indigo Prophecy, also known as Fahrenheit, both launch globally on July 21 for PS5 and PS4.
Indigo Prophecy holds particular interest for fans of narrative-driven games, given its role as the spiritual predecessor to Heavy Rain from Quantic Dream. Psi-Ops brings telekinetic combat and puzzle-solving from its original 2004 PS2 release.
Games Leaving the PlayStation Plus Extra Catalog This Month
Twelve titles exit the Extra and Premium Game Catalog on July 21, clearing space for the new additions. Risk of Rain 2, Tropico 6, and Cursed to Golf headline the departures this cycle.
Once a game’s license expires, Sony’s servers revoke access immediately, even for anything already downloaded to your console. Check the “Last Chance to Play” section in your PS Plus app for the full, region-specific departure list, since some titles may shift to a later August date depending on your area.
How to Download Your PS Free Games Before They Disappear
Claiming a PS Plus Extra title works differently than Essential monthly games, since Extra and Premium titles stay playable only while your subscription remains active. Add each game to your library through the PS Store or PS App, then download it directly to your console.
Games removed from the catalog stop working the moment their license ends, regardless of how much progress you’ve made. Anyone racing through Risk of Rain 2 or Tropico 6 before July 21 should prioritize finishing runs or backing up save data where possible.
PS Plus Extra vs Essential vs Premium: Where This Catalog Fits
Essential tier members only get July’s three monthly games: Call of Duty: Modern Warfare III, For the King II, and CrossCode, all claimable from July 7 through August 4. Extra tier subscribers get those three titles plus the full rotating catalog covered above, giving them access to over 400 games at any given time.
Premium sits on top of both tiers, adding the classics catalog featuring Psi-Ops and Indigo Prophecy this month, along with cloud streaming and select time-limited trials. Choosing between tiers really comes down to whether the rotating catalog or the classics library matters more to your library.
Final Thoughts on July’s Extra Catalog
This month’s PS Plus Extra catalog leans heavily into big, explorable worlds, with Rise of the Ronin, Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora, and Dying Light all offering dozens of hours apiece. Smaller additions like Citizen Sleeper 2 and Snow Bros. Wonderland balance the lineup out for players who want something shorter between the bigger releases.
