Hot selection for a hot month

PS Plus Extra, Premium July 2025 Available Now

PS Plus Extra and PS Plus Premium appear to be matching the current season with a scorching lineup of PS5, PS4, and Classic games for July 2025, all of which are available to download now. The UK and Europe can grab all the new titles now, and the USA gains access to them later in the day.

As a reminder of what's on offer from today, here's the complete selection for the month:

All New PS Plus Extra Games for July 2025

Banishers: Ghosts of New Eden (PS5) | Review
Bluey: The Videogame (PS5, PS4)
Planet Zoo (PS5) | Review
Risk of Rain 2 (PS4) | Review
Tropico 6 (PS5, PS4) | Review
New World: Aeternum (PS5) | Review

All New PS Plus Premium Games for July 2025

Twisted Metal 3 (PS1)
Twisted Metal 4 (PS1)

In addition to the games above, Cyberpunk 2077 was made available on PS Plus Extra last week and brand new release Abiotic Factor is coming to the service on 22nd July.

We conducted our usual Push Square Poll over the weekend to gather your thoughts on the lineup, and this has to be one of the most positive responses PS Plus has ever received. 63% of readers returned a vote to say they are at least happy with the selection of titles for July 2025.

Only 8% of voters said it's a "crap selection", which is continued progress for this community. Well done everyone.

Which of the new PS Plus games are you going to play first? Let us know in the comments below.

Liam grew up with a PlayStation controller in his hands and a love for Metal Gear Solid. Nowadays, he's found playing the latest and greatest PS5 games as well as supporting Derby County. That last detail is his downfall.

@lazarus11 Hey mate, no, unfortunately it is not. I'm just wishing to see those two titles re-released now that the entire Twisted Metal franchise is on PSN. One can only hope.

I'm a PS Plus Premium member and I only have the option to "wishlist" New World: Aeternum...

@Sir_Eos There’s still TM Small Brawl and Head On yet, plus Black will probably be re-released on the new emulator.

I've downloaded New World:Aeternum and risk of rain 2. I'll probably grab banishers as well.

@VeldinX Oh I completely forgot about Small Brawl and the PSP one, thanks for the correction!

If you are in doubt, give planet zoo a chance. You’d be amazed at just how insanely deep the creation tools are when you leave preset pieces behind and start going free from - it’s sometimes mind blowing!

Hope it's okay to post the question here mods, but after redeeming Diablo IV without issue on PS Plus, I've noticed it's effectively unavailable to purchase anymore in the PS Store!😕

Only see the expansions & mtx currencies advertised.
Was under the impression they offered a separate PS Plus version to avoid the issue these days!
Does this mean one needs a separate account or have to get in touch with PS Support to buy it on a later sale?🤔

Obligatory comment to recommend Banishers: Ghosts of New Eden to everyone. Really good action adventure with great story. If you liked God of War, download Banishers now.
