PlayStation is adding a handful of new games for PlayStation Plus users in May 2025 and you won’t want to miss them. PS Plus is easily one of the best subscription services in gaming, even if you don’t play any games online. It frequently gives you access to some of the best games on PlayStation, including some relatively recent ones. Horizon Forbidden West was added to PlayStation Plus just one year after its initial release, giving patient fans a nice free bonus. Earlier this year, Dragon Age: The Veilguard also came to PS Plus, just months after its fall debut.
PlayStation has revealed the new games coming to PS Plus in May 2025. These games are available for all PlayStation Plus tiers and will be available from May 6th, 2025 to June 2nd, 2025. Even if you don’t plan to play these games, it’s worth claiming them because they’re free and you never know when you might want something new to play. April’s PlayStation Plus titles will remain available to claim until May 5th, so if you haven’t snatched up games like Robocop: Rogue City, we highly recommend doing so before it’s gone.
May’s PlayStation Plus games include Ark: Survival Ascended, Warhammer 40:000: Boltgun, and Game of the Year nominee Balatro. You can read some descriptions of each game down below.
