Best PS Plus Games

Can anyone tell me whether the games on the top tier will remain in place for the duration you pay for the Tier, or will they drop off after a while just like the now old PS NOW service?

Not really too bothered about the PS1 or PS3 games, just want to be able to play the most recent AAA games at my own pace and not be restricted by a time and day that they will be removed, for example Returnal or Valhalla.

TIA guys

And the top 3 are in the PS Plus Collection for PS5 users, which you get with the Essential tier.

@get2sammyb Thanks very much.

I am still so confused by it all haha.

I am in the U.K. and I am searching for Resi 7 and can't see it anywhere.

I'll get used to it in no time I guess.

I can't believe Disaster Report 4 isn't in there

The reason I'm not subscribing to the higher tiers is that I already have most of these PS4 and PS5 games. The ones I haven't played are the PS3 ones and I don't really fancy playing them on streaming.

This would be good value if you don't really buy many games or somehow skipped the PS4 gen.

I like God of War but I wouldn't put it top and in the past I've been a little down on Ghost of Tsushima despite enjoying it but having gone back for the expansion I've found a new appreciation for it. To be fair it is a great collection of games overall

This is like the first PushSquare list in ages that Ghost of Tsushima DC hasn’t been on top

I’m still on the fence whether or not to buy Premium for a couple months, but in the meantime, I’m lucky enough to have the majority of these games loaded up onto my PS5.

Unfortunately, I missed most of the PS4 generation, but since picking up Sony’s latest console a few months after it launched, I’ve played what are now two of my favourite ever games, namely The Last of Us Part II and God of War 2018. I also finished Ghost of Tsushima: Director’s Cut last month and loved it so much that I even got the platinum trophy. And I really don’t usually go for those. I’m currently playing the Resident Evil 2 remake for the first time and having an absolute blast, but once that’s wrapped up, I’ll be moving on to either Red Dead Redemption II or Persona 5 Royal.

Once they’re done and dusted, if there’s nothing else new to play, I may well go with one of the new tiers and finally get around to playing some of the rest of the PS4 library that I’ve been wanting to play, such as Days Gone, Gravity Rush 2, The Last Guardian and WipEout Omega Collection. I’m gutted that I never had the chance to play these games when they originally released, but I sure am having a blast checking them off my backlog. Plus, Astebreed looks right up my street, too!

@Wiggo @get2sammyb I thought it was as simple as they will get expiry dates eventually and then you lose access, but reading on the PlayStation store on console, it actually said something like download it and keep for as long as you are subscribed. So if you have a lot of space on an SSD it could help ease the worry of expiry dates, as anything you want you can download while it's available.

That's how I take it at the moment. Rather than the old system of click redeem on everything and get to keep it, if it's downloaded it seems like it's safe forever (whilst subscribed) even if it's removed from the downloadable catalogue for others who don't have it stored.

Exciting times though on PlayStation 😁

Enjoy Valhalla, just try to not get burned out 🤯 which to be honest is easy enough if you enjoy the time exploring open world's out of combat between objectives, because it's a really great looking game and it's packed full of content

@Ravix Much appreciated good Sir.

Kingdom:, Two Crowns is a game in the Extra tier I think anyone should check out. It has gorgeous pixel art that uses it in a very impressive manner and has addicting gameplay. Great little game to try outside of AAA offering.

God of number 1.god of g.o.a.t. 🐐. 👑.resistance 1 and 2 is needed.word up son

RDR2 and Spidey are at the top for me but it's splitting hairs among a number of unbelievable titles.

Not enough quality content to upgrade to any of those higher levels. Still, game pass is MUCH better value for money. Sony are just recycling and trying to catch up.. We give you "the game" as part of your ps plus, we give you the same game as part of PS5 collection, we give you the same game again if you pay more and upgrade to "extra"..
Not trolling, just expressing my opinion (I dont even own xbox).

I'm really gutted that MGSV4 Guns Of The Patriots and MGS HD Collection have disappeared....hoping they're back soon

I've been playing Death Stranding from PS Plus for the first time and I'm absolutely loving it. Also enjoying AC Valhalla which I would have never touched otherwise. Very happy with the service so far

@get2sammyb hey man. Dont know if you'll know an answer to this but figured its worth a shot. Observer redux doesnt seem to be included in the extra tier. It says you need premium. I thought it would be include to download in the extra tier being a ps5 game. Have you seen/heard anything on that?

Of course PS Exclusives would have to top on "PushSquare" when we know RDR2 is supposed to be #1 😜

Missing 7 of the 30 games listed only because I didn't want them. I am always surprised how many people miss such great games. Most of them have seen prices below $20.

Its also a bit annoying that while other accounts on the same console can play the games, they cant access the library themselves to download them as you can with gamepass. My kids have been pestering me all night to log in and download them different things. Bit of a 1st world problem but hopefully something they allow later on just to make my life easier 😂

@get2sammyb Maybe its something that will get adjusted over the coming days, wouldnt be a Sony roll out without the odd weird thing popping up. Its quite a big change to roll out in one go i suppose so might be something they tweak in the coming days. Plenty to be on with in the meantime though eh.

Appreciate the response 👍

Did Europe get shafted? Several games missing, ones that are listed on the official page. Demon's Souls ps3 for example.

They need to remake the resistance games old school quality fps!!

I got my PS5 in June 2021 (didn't have a PS4) and I've already played most of the top tier games on this list. Can't complain though as they were amazing, and having them on PS Plus means I can share them with my brother on his PS4.

I really really really really want a 60fps patch for Red Dead Redemption 2.

Hopefully it will get more day one games not first party but smaller games like gamepass if not its just another psnow only with less games

@ApostateMage never gonna happen

@Barrymore so many games missing don't not have premium if you are in the uk! It's nothing like the USA one

@carlos82 I agree, God of War wasn't a bad ge by any means, but I definitely don't understand it being seen as one of the best of all time. Also Bloodborne and Demon's Souls only at #15 and #14!?

Bloodborne should definitely have been at least Top 1 on the list

Wow, there are only 6 of the 30 that I haven’t played. And of those, I already own 5 of those 6. 😅 Resistance 3 is the only from the list that I have never played and don’t already own.

So suffice it to say, this is why I may not upgrade my sub just yet.

So I can play the PS5 version of Mile Morales but only PS4 version if Spiderman? Is that right? That's a shame, I'd been looking forward to dropping back in to NYC in super shiny mode.

I caved in and payed like 15 for the next 6 months, getting my money's worth with Returnal alone. Beat the second boss today. What a rush! Some reads you want to throw to controller, but when you succeed it just feels awesome.

For someone new to gaming i’d recommend PS+ over Game Pass. Simple reason the games are better. Game Pass has day 1 exclusives which is great as a few are really good but PS exclusives are on another level. Only difference they’re not day 1. If PS put exclusives on day 1 the hit would be huge. Less money means less investment for future games. The quality would drop. I don’t mind paying £50-£60 a few times a year for games that will blow my mind.

Guardians of the Galaxy was the game that secured my subscription and boy, did it not disappoint! A GOTY contender for me for sure. Finally playing Lost Legacy and that is also fantastic. With Stray coming this month I must say this service has really surprised me. I’ve got tons of games I’m really looking forward to.

I think binding of isaac is the best plus game I've ever played, then hell let loose. I recently upgraded to extra and am enjoying stray and look forward to seeing more quality games.

Why is the same game both 4th and 5th?

What's the point in having Miles Morales twice, and also GHost of Tsusihma?

Shout out to Dragon Quest Builders. It's such an unobvious and obscure action JRPG outside of Japan, and it was a bigger hit in the west on Switch for some reason. Because of weird graphics, probably, but looks can be deceiving as they say.

The gameplay loop gets addicting as hell once you get the hang of the controls. There are 2 of them independent of each other.

@get2sammyb are y'all working on an easier way for switching pages or trimming down on the massive scrolling for the ranking articles? I enjoy going through them but it seems a bit much to go from the bottom to the top 10.

I understand the ps4 games needing to be here, but there's got to be a way to remove duplicate entries aross ps4 and 5.

Still those double entries such as Ghost of Tsushima. Is it a bug or is there a thought behind it?

God of War (2018) will always take the top spot. That game is a masterpiece.
