PlayStation Plus has gotten several new games throughout the month, but as expected, several of them are also set to leave the subscription service’s Game Catalog for Extra- and Premium-tier subscribers. In total, there’ll be nine games exiting PS Plus on August 18, so you’ve only got a few weeks left to check out a fun zombie apocalypse adventure, a JRPG with an elegant hand-drawn art style, and one anime-inspired game that knows exactly who its target market is. Here’s the full list:
PlayStation Plus Game Catalog games leaving on August 18
- Bomber Crew (PS4)
- Clash: Artifacts of Chaos (PS5, PS4)
- Dead Island 2 (PS5, PS4)
- Earth Defense Force 6 (PS5, PS4)
- Harold Halibut (PS5)
- Onee Chanbara Origin (PS4)
- Roki (PS5)
- Space Crew (PS4)
- Unicorn Overlord (PS5, PS4)
Dead Island 2 is the highest-profile exit for next month, and if you haven’t checked it out yet, then you’ve missed out on a fun sequel. Stuck in development hell for several years, it eventually released on PC and consoles in 2023. Surprisingly goofy, extremely violent, and full of a surprising amount of character buildcrafting, it’s a fun experience that has a great balance of action and survival.
The other game you’ll want to check out is Harold Halibut, especially if you’ve been craving an old-school point-and-click adventure. Harold Halibut wears that influence on its sleeve, and it also looks incredible thanks to the years of work that went into crafting its unique characters and world.
While those games won’t be around for much longer, you can grab three games right now if you’re subscribed to any tier of PlayStation Plus–Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3, For the King 2, and CrossCode. For members of PlayStation Plus Extra and Premium, the Game Catalog has already expanded with five games this month, including Rise of the Ronin, Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora, and Dying Light. Two more games are arriving on July 28–Sony now does weekly Game Catalog drops for US, UK, and Japanese subscribers–and Premium-tier subscribers can also download two PlayStation Classics next week in the form of Psi-Ops: The Mindgate Conspiracy and Indigo Prophecy.
Next week will also see Sony reveal the next batch of free games for all PlayStation Plus subscribers in August, so don’t forget to check in to see what they are ahead of their arrival on August 4.
