Sony is set to reveal the first batch of PS Plus Extra and PS Plus Premium games for 2025 tomorrow, but more urgently for current members, the day they arrive also marks the removal of 11 great PS5, PS4 titles from the service. From 21st January 2025, the following 11 games leave the two tiers, rendering them unplayable with a membership:
- Resident Evil 2 (PS5, PS4)
- Hardspace: Shipbreaker (PS5, PS4)
- Just Cause 3 (PS4)
- Street Fighter 30th Anniversary Collection (PS4)
- Legend of Mana (PS4)
- Secret of Mana (PS4)
- Dragon Ball FighterZ (PS5, PS4)
- Life Is Strange: Before the Storm (PS4)
- Life Is Strange (PS4)
- Just Cause 4 (PS4)
- Pure Hold'em (PS4)
As we pointed out when the latest removals list was confirmed, a lot of these games are on the shorter side, so even with just a week of availability left, you could still start and finish a few of them if you're determined enough. Resident Evil 2 is the obvious standout, a fantastic remake of a PS1 classic. This would also be a good chance to catch up on the Life Is Strange series with the best two entries.
Will you move any of these games to the top of your backlog before they're removed? Let us know in the comments below.

Man really good games can't stop leaving every month, huh. Well I would recommend checking out the SF 30th Anniversary Collection and DBFZ. Both really good fighter packages that are worth getting into even after they leave
@Fighting_Game_Loser these games were there for too long. If anyone didn't play them at this point, they weren't really interested in them. PS+ gets new good games all the time (except premium tier)
Mandatory post to say Hardspace Shipbreaker is a fantastic gem of a game.
No way i csn beat legend of mana in a week 🤦
So long Shipbreaker, we had some good times together.
It really sucks that RE2 is leaving. I wanted to platinum it at some point.
I just started Tales of Arise, so I am glad that is not leaving just yet. It joined last February, so perhaps it will be leaving soon?

There is a other way, my friend!
Life is Strange (2015) is so much more interesting both in plot and setting then the latest sequel .. the new game feels like a Kickstarter tribute game...
started playing it with the looming deadline and it been a great...
@dBackLash
It's not as though you can never play it again... you could always just buy the game
@dBackLash It frequently sells for chump change.
I bought it + REmake 3 for €15 or so, and that was in 2023.
@saffeqwe I wanted to comment exactly this. The three games on the list I would play (SF30/RE2/DBZ), I already own lol
@dBackLash Why not check it price usually they show the price near to the download since it's a ps plus game
