Best PlayStation Plus Games (January 2025)

Author : Chloe Feb 08,2025

This article discusses the PlayStation Plus subscription service and highlights some of its best games, focusing on titles leaving the service in January 2025 and a newly added Essential title.

The PlayStation Plus service, launched in June 2022, offers three tiers: Essential, Extra, and Premium. Essential provides online access, monthly free games, and discounts. Extra adds hundreds of PS4 and PS5 games to the Essential benefits. Premium includes all of the above, plus a library of classic games (PS1, PS2, PSP, and PS3), game trials, and cloud streaming (region-dependent).

The Premium tier's extensive library can be difficult to navigate. This article aims to highlight some key titles, acknowledging that Sony adds new games monthly. Rankings consider both game quality and their PS Plus addition date, prioritizing newer and Essential titles.

Notable Departures from PS Plus Extra & Premium in January 2025

Several significant games are leaving the Extra and Premium tiers on January 21st, 2025. Two stand out:

Resident Evil 2 (Remake): A critically acclaimed remake of the PS1 classic, this horror title offers two campaigns following Leon and Claire's survival in Raccoon City. While completing both campaigns before the game's removal might be challenging, a single playthrough is achievable.
Dragon Ball FighterZ: Developed by Arc System Works, this fighting game boasts accessible yet deep gameplay. While its online component is a strong draw, the offline content, consisting of three single-player arcs, may feel repetitive after a short time.

January 2025 PS Plus Essential Addition:

The Stanley Parable: Ultra Deluxe: This title is available as a PS Plus Essential game from January 7th to February 3rd, 2025.
