It’s officially the second half of 2026, which is going to be all about Grand Theft Auto 6. Until then, Sony has a new selection of games coming to PS Plus in July that includes Avatar: Frontier of Pandora, Dying Light and a couple of classic PlayStation 2 games.
PS Plus, which is Sony’s version of Xbox Game Pass, offers a large, constantly expanding library of games. Subscribers can choose from the Essential, Extra and Premium tiers, each with unique perks and benefits. Starting at $11 a month, the plans give subscribers access to games and rewards, and each month, all subscribers can play a handful of new games at no additional charge.
If you’re a PlayStation Plus Extra or Premium subscriber, you can grab these games starting July 21.
Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora
Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora came out in 2023, a year after Avatar: The Way of Water released in theaters. Developed by Massive Entertainment – a division of Ubisoft – the open-world action-adventure puts players in the role of a Na’vi raised by the Resources Development Administration, or RDA, before returning to defend Pandora. Set in the previously unseen Western Frontier, the game emphasizes exploration, aerial traversal on an ikran and combat using both traditional Na’vi weapons and human firearms. While its gameplay shares many similarities with the Far Cry series, its lush environments and faithful recreation of Pandora earned praise from critics.
Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora will be available for PS Plus Extra and Premium subscribers starting July 21.
Rise of the Ronin
Team Ninja went a different direction than its usual Ninja Gaiden style with 2024’s Rise of the Ronin. Set during Japan’s turbulent Bakumatsu period in the late 19th century, the open-world action RPG lets players shape the story by siding with competing political factions. Combat combines fast-paced swordplay with firearms and other period weapons with the challenging gameplay the studio is known for. Its blend of historical events, exploration and player-driven choices helped distinguish it from Team Ninja’s previous action games.
Rise of the Ronin is now available for PS Plus Extra and Premium subscribers.
Firefighting Simulator: Ignite
Firefighting Simulator: Ignite puts players in the role of a firefighter responding to emergencies across a large fictional city in the American Midwest. Whether playing solo with AI teammates or cooperatively with up to three friends, players battle dynamic fires, rescue civilians and use authentic firefighting equipment to contain increasingly dangerous blazes. Powered by Unreal Engine 5, the game features real-time fire, smoke and heat simulation designed to create a more realistic firefighting experience.
Firefighting Simulator: Ignite will be available for PS Plus Extra and Premium subscribers starting July 21.
Mighty Morphin Power Rangers: Rita’s Rewind
Mighty Morphin Power Rangers: Rita’s Rewind is a true nostalgia bomb of a game. The side-scrolling beat-’em-up reimagines the classic 1990s TV series with pixel art visuals, cooperative multiplayer and familiar villains, including a robotic version of Rita Repulsa. Players battle through stages inspired by the show before piloting Dinozords and the Megazord in 3D action sequences that break up the traditional brawler gameplay.
Mighty Morphin Power Rangers: Rita’s Rewind will be available for PS Plus Extra and Premium subscribers starting July 28.
Dying Light
It’s been more than a decade since Dying Light was released, but it’s still a title that gamers fawn over. Players explore the zombie-infested city of Harran using a fast-paced parkour system that makes traversing rooftops as important as combat. Scavenging for supplies, crafting weapons and surviving a dynamic day-night cycle keep the tension high as more dangerous infected emerge after dark. Its fluid movement and intense survival mechanics helped make it one of the most acclaimed zombie games of its generation.
Dying Light will be available for PS Plus Extra and Premium subscribers starting July 21.
Citizen Sleeper 2: Starward Vector
Citizen Sleeper 2: Starward Vector builds on its predecessor by sending players across a lawless star system as an escaped android searching for freedom. Rather than focusing on traditional combat, the game emphasizes dialogue, dice-based skill checks and recontracts. Its choice-driven storytelling and tabletop-inspired mechanics make every decision feel meaningful, with multiple paths that shape how the story unfolds
Citizen Sleeper 2: Starward Vector will be available for PS Plus Extra and Premium subscribers starting July 28.
Snow Bros. Wonderland
Snow Bros. Wonderland revives the long-running arcade franchise with a fresh 3D isometric look while staying true to its classic action-platforming roots. Players freeze enemies into snowballs before kicking them across each stage to defeat other foes and rack up combos. Cooperative play, colorful environments and larger-than-life boss battles help modernize the series without losing the charm that made the original games fan favorites.
Snow Bros. Wonderland will be available for PS Plus Extra and Premium subscribers starting July 28.
Psi-Ops: The Mindgate Conspiracy
Psi-Ops: The Mindgate Conspiracy was first released for the PS2 in 2004 and had a mix of interesting physics gameplay that was a big trend in gaming at the time. Players control Nick Scryer, a secret agent who combines traditional gunplay with psychic abilities like telekinesis, mind control and pyrokinesis to take down enemies. The game’s physics-based powers encouraged creative problem-solving and helped it stand out from other action shooters of its era, earning it a cult following years after its release.
Psi-Ops: The Mindgate Conspiracy will be available for PS Plus Premium subscribers starting July 21.
Indigo Prophecy
Before it made a name for itself with the games Heavy Rain and Detroit: Become Human, developer Quantic Dream first experimented with making the point-and-click adventure gameplay style a bit more action-oriented with Indigo Prophecy. The supernatural thriller follows several interconnected characters as they investigate a string of mysterious murders while uncovering a conspiracy that threatens humanity. Its cinematic presentation, branching narrative and quick-time events helped lay the foundation for the studio’s later interactive dramas.
Indigo Prophecy will be available for PS Plus Premium subscribers starting July 21.
PlayStation Plus subscriptions start at $10 a month
