Heads Up, PS Plus Extra Subscribers: These Big-Name Games Might Leave in August


PlayStation Plus Extra subscribers, it’s time to check your playlists and clear your backlogs. As we approach August 2025, whispers and data patterns suggest several notable games are likely cycling out of the PS Plus Extra and Premium game catalog soon. And trust us, this isn’t just filler—some heavy hitters are potentially on the chopping block.

While Sony hasn’t officially confirmed the August 2025 removals just yet (that announcement typically comes closer to mid-month), historical trends and licensing windows point toward an imminent exit for a selection of titles. For those who’ve been meaning to dive into certain acclaimed adventures or action-packed blockbusters, now is absolutely the time to download and play before they vanish back into the retail ether.

Why the Urgency? Games typically land in the PS Plus catalog for 6-12 months, and when they leave, they’re gone—unless you purchase them separately. Missing out means losing access even if you’re still subscribed. Titles like major AAA releases, beloved indies, and even genre-defining RPGs often find themselves in these departure cycles. This time around, sources indicate the list includes some truly significant names that helped define recent years in gaming. Think along the lines of recent Game of the Year contenders, iconic remasters, or sprawling open worlds that demand dozens of hours.

Curious about which specific games are rumored for removal? A recent analysis points to some strong possibilities. You can find a detailed breakdown of the most likely candidates over at Gameblog:

This potential exodus serves as a critical reminder: don’t sleep on your catalog. If you’ve been eyeing a big RPG, a narrative-driven masterpiece, or a co-op gem you planned to play with friends, fire up your PS5 now. Download them, add them to your library, and get started. Once they’re gone, redeeming or accessing them through PS Plus is off the table.

Sony usually confirms the exact titles leaving around July 15th-18th, giving subscribers roughly two weeks' notice before the games disappear around August 20th. That window closes fast, especially for lengthy titles. So, whether it’s finishing up side quests, chasing that platinum trophy, or simply experiencing a story you’ve heard praised, prioritize these potential departures.

Keep an eye on the official PlayStation Blog for the formal list soon, but in the meantime, treat this as your friendly neighborhood PSA: check that catalog, play the greats, and game on before August’s farewells. Your backlog will thank you.
