As of its latest announcement, PlayStation Plus has 10 still-upcoming games between August and September 2026, with 5 of those games hitting on August 18, 5 on August 25, and 1 on September 15. These all follow the latest PS Plus Extra addition in Helldivers 2, which recently joined the service alongside its latest update (adding the Illuminate faction). Overall, it remains to be seen how these games perform on the service, but there’s solid variety among the games.
That variety can be a lifeline for PS Plus users every month because no game is really a fit for every gamer. As such, the fact that the current “upcoming” list adds a samurai action game, a zombie game, a party game, a management sim, an endless wave game, an open-world RPG, and an open-world survival-crafting game to PS Plus speaks wonders to the number of subscribers who might actually want to play something.

Atlantis: The Lost Empire is an oldie-but-goldie style retelling of the classic Disney movie, while Onimusha: Dawn of Dreams is a samurai-action game appetizer ahead of Way of the Sword‘s release date in September.

Umamusume Pretty Derby is a bright, playful party game for PS Plus, counteracting the dark story in the FPS Metro Exodus and the zombie apocalypse seen in Dying Light 2, while Two Point Museum is a fun, quirky business management sim for PS Plus.
- RuneScape: Dragonwilds (PS Plus Extra) – September 15
Announced earlier this year is the 1.0/PS5 release of RuneScape: Dragonwilds as a day-one PS Plus Extra game on September 15. This open-world survival-crafting game, set in the beloved RuneScape universe, also marks the franchise’s first console appearance. In it, players explore the lost continent of Ashenfall (while preparing for the Dragon Queen) and collect resources, build bases, cook food, fight monsters, and otherwise engage with the open-world survival-crafting aspects through core RuneScape-style combat. It supports solo play and co-op for up to four players, with progression tied to skills that can unlock new recipes, abilities, and ways to survive.
