PS Plus free games: New games revealed for December 2025

If you were burned by Xbox Game Pass and its recent price hikes, you'll be glad to know that PS Plus still provides great value to gamers, and that doesn't look like it will stop anytime soon, going by all the new PS Plus games for December 2025.

Of course, PS Plus is now a tiered affair and that does mean that the more you're willing to pay in your monthly or yearly subscription, the more game drops you'll be able to enjoy each month. Speaking of which, the Extra and Premium tier games have now been added too.

But, with new games in, out must go the old ones. Sadly, we are past the point of claiming November's tranche of games, so our condolences if you missed the boat with those.

There's plenty to be looking forward to in PlayStation land, though, as rumours gather pace around a much-leaked PlayStation handheld, with many suspecting the recent PlayStation power-saving mode is acting as a testing ground to get PS5 titles ready for it.

Not only that, but we got a proper look at the upcoming Marvel's Wolverine from Insomniac Games. PlayStation fans are certainly eating good!

But, as for those new PS Plus games for December 2025, read on.

PS Plus free games for December 2025 confirmed

PS Plus Essential members will get the following free titles as part of December's monthly games:

• LEGO Horizon Adventures (PS5) – 2nd December
• Killing Floor 3 (PS5) – 2nd December
• The Outlast Trials (PS4, PS5) – 2nd December
• Synduality: Echo of Ada (PS5) – 2nd December
• Neon White (PS5) – 2nd December

PlayStation Plus Extra and Premium members can also enjoy these new additions to the Game Catalogue:

• Assassin's Creed Mirage (PS5, PS4)
• Skate Story (PS5)
• Granblue Fantasy: Relink (PS5, PS4)
• Planet Coaster 2 (PS5)
• Cat Quest 3 (PS5, PS4)
• Paw Patrol Grand Prix (PS5, PS4)
• Paw Patrol World (PS5, PS4)

And Premium members get this one extra:

• Soulcalibur III (PS5, PS4)

It's a pretty strong line-up this month! LEGO Horizon Adventures is certainly worth your time for the grand sum of free. We dubbed it a "silly demake" in our review, and found it features many of the motifs of the mainline games, but in a more streamlined, more approachable form that is, of course, imbued with classic LEGO games humour!

Killing Floor 3 is a much more intense affair, featuring waves of deadly monsters to dispatch with, resulting in over-the-top gory results. Whilst poorly received at launch, the game has seen a steady slew of updates, and an injection of new players will no doubt be a good thing!

The Outlast Trials continues the stressful monster theme. This 2024 first-person psychological horror affair will be sure to give you nightmares, and it doesn't help that (for those in the northern hemisphere), we're experiencing constant darkness. Monsters could be hiding in every shadow, you know!

Synduality: Echo of Ada is a PvPvE extraction shooter, featuring mechs, an anime aesthetic and a whole lot of aliens that want you dead. Rounds will see you and a humanoid AI companion scavenge for AO crystals that will help you upgrade your gear and stats.

Neon White is another total tonal shift. The game is a first-person shooter puzzle platformer that oozes style. It's extremely addictive, especially if you have an affinity for speedrunning. You're given a stack of playing cards that represent weapons, which can be exchanged for special movements such as double-jumps and the like.

What's leaving PS Plus this month?

There are three games leaving PS Plus 1st December 2025:

• Stray (PS4, PS5)
• EA Sports WRC (PS5)
• Totally Accurate Battle Simulator (PS4, PS5)

Make sure to claim them before it's too late!

What do you get with the other PS Plus tiers?

Even more games are available with the higher tiers of PlayStation Plus (Extra and Premium). We're still unsure what else will be added to the other tiers, but we'll update this guide as and when they're announced.

As well as all the games included in the other tiers, PS Plus Premium lets you download and play older titles from PS1, PS2, PS3 and PSP to harken back to a simpler time and relive your younger years.

PS3 games are only available via cloud streaming and this is region-dependent, but the UK is included in this list so we don't miss out.

See below for a selection of classics you can revisit:

As a PS Plus Premium subscriber, you also have access to time-limited trials, which lets you try before you buy and download a full game and play it for a set amount of time. The length of the trial varies depending on the game.

What’s also great here is that the progress you make on these trials will carry over if you end up buying the full game. We’ve got a selection of just a few below.

• A Plague Tale: Requiem – Two hours
• Baldur's Gate 3 – Two hours
• Cyberpunk 2077 – Five hours
• God of War Ragnarok – Three hours
• The Last of Us: Part I – Two hours
• Hogwarts Legacy – 45 minutes
• Spider-Man 2 - Two hours

As you can see, longer RPGs and story titles get longer trials, so you can get a good sense of what you’re getting into before you fish out your wallet. Make sure to check out our more comprehensive list of all PS Plus games so you don't miss out on any games you've been meaning to play.
