Sony has revealed the PlayStation Plus Extra and Premium Game Catalog for June 2026, led by Final Fantasy XVI and a run of eight titles that also brings in Sonic X Shadow Generations, Kingdom Come: Deliverance and Life is Strange: Double Exposure, with the PlayStation 2 rhythm classic Gitaroo Man added for Premium members. The bigger change this month is timing rather than content. For the first time in years, Sony is trialling staggered release dates in the United States, the United Kingdom and Japan, while every other region receives the full line-up on 16 June 2026. The earliest title is already live, with Sonic X Shadow Generations available in the US and UK from 10 June and in Japan from today, 11 June.

Every PS Plus Extra and Premium Game in June 2026

Sony confirmed the full June line-up on the PlayStation Blog, where the month spans dark fantasy, open-world role-playing, farming and rhythm. Final Fantasy XVI and Gitaroo Man land globally on 16 June, while the remaining Extra titles roll out across the month in the three trial markets and arrive together on 16 June everywhere else. The table below sets out each game, its platforms and the dates for the US, UK and Japan against the rest of the world.

Final Fantasy XVI Headlines the Catalog

Final Fantasy XVI is the headline addition. The 16th standalone entry in the series, released in 2023, marked a darker and more mature turn for the franchise, telling a complex tale of revenge, power struggles and unavoidable tragedy. Players take the role of Clive Rosfield, First Shield of Rosaria and guardian of his younger brother Joshua, the Dominant of the Eikon Phoenix, across the diverse land of Valisthea. It is the first fully-fledged action-RPG in the mainline Final Fantasy series, pairing staple Final Fantasy abilities with dynamic battlefield options and the spectacular Eikonic powers at Clive’s disposal. The Game Catalog version is the base game only, so the two post-launch expansions are not included.

The Rest of June’s Extra Lineup

Sonic X Shadow Generations sees Shadow journey into his own past when his old nemesis Black Doom reemerges to threaten the world, forcing him to confront painful memories, face familiar foes and unlock new powers. It also bundles a complete remaster of the classic Sonic Generations, with newly remastered 2D and 3D stages, upgraded visuals and bonus content alongside the standalone Shadow campaign.

Kingdom Come: Deliverance casts players as Henry, the son of a blacksmith thrust into a raging civil war that takes away his family and entire village, in a story-driven open-world RPG set in medieval Bohemia built around avenging his parents and learning the way of the sword. The PS5 version adds 4K resolution, an improved framerate, high-resolution textures and other graphical upgrades.

Life is Strange: Double Exposure returns to original protagonist Max Caulfield, now a photographer-in-residence who discovers her closest new friend, Safi, dead in the snow, murdered. Trying to rewind time to save her instead opens a parallel timeline where Safi is still alive, and still in danger.

The line-up rounds out with three more on 30 June in the trial markets. Farming Simulator 25 hands players a tractor and a full agricultural sandbox.

Blades of Fire is another dark fantasy adventure.

 

And Black Desert brings Pearl Abyss’s open-world MMORPG to the catalogue, a natural pick for anyone following Crimson Desert.

PlayStation LifeStyle also notes that Destiny 2: Legacy Collection 2025 is already available to Extra and Premium members on PS5 and PS4.

Gitaroo Man Joins PS Plus Premium

PlayStation Plus Premium subscribers gain the cult PlayStation 2 rhythm game Gitaroo Man, available globally on 16 June. The reissue keeps the original’s heartwarming atmosphere and hard-rocking classic soundtrack, along with the colourful, iconic character designs created by famed Japanese illustrator 326.

Sony Trials Staggered Release Dates

The release schedule, not the games, is the talking point this month. Sony said it is exploring new ways to deliver Game Catalog titles in select markets, which is why the June additions go live on varying dates in the US, the UK and Japan rather than dropping together. Players everywhere else still get the entire line-up on 16 June. Sony has trialled staggered timing before, an experiment it wound back after it caused confusion among subscribers, and June marks its return to the approach after a long gap.

Monthly Games for All PS Plus Members

Separate from the Extra and Premium catalogue, every PlayStation Plus member can still claim June’s three Essential games: Grounded Fully Yoked Edition, Nickelodeon All-Star Brawl 2 and Warhammer 40,000: Darktide 2.

The final Extra additions, Farming Simulator 25, Blades of Fire and Black Desert, arrive on 30 June in the three trial markets, and Sony has yet to confirm which titles will rotate out of the Game Catalog when the July line-up is announced.
