PS Plus free games: New games revealed for July 2025

Unfortunately, that also means that some games will be leaving the service this month, so keep an eye out for any you're interested in!

So, once you've checked out some of the best PlayStation 5 deals, read on to find out which PS Plus games are joining the service in July 2025!

PS Plus free games for July 2025 confirmed

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

• Diablo 4 – 1st July
• The King of Fighters 15 – 1st July
• Jusant – 1st July

The biggest release of this month is without a doubt Diablo 4. The latest entry in Blizzard's massively popular ARPG series brings players, solo and in parties of up to four, into the world of Sanctuary. It's great timing too, as Diablo 4 season 9 is just about to start, so it's a great time to jump in!

Following that, we've also got the legendary The King of Fighters 15 coming to the service. Famed for its high execuction requirements, with its infamous combo trials besting even veteran fighting game players, if you've ever thought about trying them out for yourself, now's the time!

Lastly, we have Jusant. A chill puzzle platformer from French studio Don't Nod, Jusant sees you climbing an abandoned tower, investigating relics of a long-dead civilisation.

It's a beautiful game full of evocative environmental storytelling, and a perfect experience for when you want to kick back and relax – probably after breaking your controller in KOF 15's combo trials..

What's leaving PS Plus this month?

There are six games leaving the PS Plus catalogue on 15th July:

• Crisis Core: Final Fantasy 7 Reunion

What do you get with the other PS Plus tiers?

Below is a list of July's Premium and Extra tiers:

• Abiotic Factor

What to play on PS Plus – our recommendations

If you're looking for some other great games to play in the PS Plus Game Catalogue, we'd recommend these ones for sure:

• Control: Ultimate Edition
• Death Stranding Director's Cut (PS5)
• Days Gone (PS4)
• Demon's Souls (PS5)
• DOOM Eternal (PS4, PS5)
• Horizon Forbidden West (PS4, PS5)

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:

• Oddworld: Abe's Oddysee (PS1)
• Ridge Racer Type 4 (PS1)
  
• Resident Evil Director's Cut (PS1)
• The Jak and Dexter series (PS2)
• Dark Cloud (PS2)
• The God of War Collection and God of War Ascension (PS3)
• inFAMOUS and inFAMOUS 2 (PS3)
• Pursuit Force: Extreme Justice (PSP)
• Killzone: Liberation (PSP)

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.
