PLAYSTATION switches up the games on the platform every month, and there is a whole host of new games to play.
We previously learned about the monthly games coming to PS Plus Essential, but we now know which titles will be added to the subscription’s Extra and Premium tiers.
PS Plus Extra offers a selection of newer games for people to play, whereas PS Plus Premium focuses on PlayStation classics.
The highlight of this month is Red Dead Redemption 2, which has a massive 97 rating on review aggregate site Metacritic.
It tells the tale of outlaw Arthur Morgan, who strives to survive in the American frontier against the backdrop of a Wild West in decline.
There are some other excellent games on the list like the 80-rated Watch Dogs.
Most of the games are available on PS4 and PS5 with the exception of Ghostrunner 2, Deceive Inc., and Crime Boss: Rockay City which are PS5 exclusives.
An expansion pack for The Sims 4 is also included, but you will need to download the base game if you want to play.
The Sims 4 is free to play, so you won’t need to spend any money if you want to play it.
