PlayStation Plus subscribers will see a major catalog refresh on January 20, bringing nine new games to the Extra and Premium tiers while removing four titles from the service. The update delivers blockbuster horror, RPG, racing, and indie experiences, giving players plenty of new content to explore at the start of 2026.
Sony rotates Extra and Premium games monthly instead of keeping them permanently like the Essential tier. Players need an active subscription to access these rotating titles, so timing matters if they want to finish outgoing games before removal.
New Games Coming to PS Plus Extra and Premium on January 20
Subscribers will gain access to a strong mix of high-profile releases and critically praised titles. The lineup includes survival horror favorites, deep RPG adventures, and unique indie experiences.
New additions:
- Resident Evil Village
- Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth
- Expeditions: A MudRunner Game
- A Quiet Place: The Road Ahead
- Art of Rally
- The Exit 8
- A Little to the Left
- Darkest Dungeon II
- Ridge Racer (Premium tier exclusive classic)
Resident Evil Village lands just ahead of the next major Resident Evil release later this year, giving new players a perfect entry point into the series. Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth brings a massive turn-based RPG experience packed with story-driven combat, side activities, and character progression. Fans of strategy and challenge will also appreciate Darkest Dungeon II’s punishing dungeon mechanics and tactical depth.
Ridge Racer returns as a classic bonus for Premium subscribers, adding nostalgic arcade racing to the catalog.
Four Games Leave PS Plus on the Same Day
While new games arrive, several titles will leave the Extra and Premium libraries on January 20. Players who want to finish these games should prioritize them before the deadline.
Games leaving the service:
- Like a Dragon Gaiden: The Man Who Erased His Name
- Monopoly Plus
- Sayonara Wild Hearts
- SD Gundam Battle Alliance
The timing creates an emotional crossover for fans of the Like a Dragon series. Like a Dragon Gaiden exits on the same day Infinite Wealth arrives, closing one chapter while opening the next.
This update offers strong value for players who enjoy story-driven RPGs, horror titles, and challenging gameplay systems. Infinite Wealth alone can keep players busy for dozens of hours, while Resident Evil Village delivers intense survival horror with replay value.
At the same time, subscribers must decide whether to finish Like a Dragon Gaiden before it disappears. The game offers a shorter campaign than Infinite Wealth, making it possible to complete before the cutoff if players start soon.
The January refresh reinforces Sony’s strategy of keeping the catalog fresh while encouraging players to explore games quickly rather than waiting months.
