PlayStation Plus subscribers should keep an eye on January 20, as that is when the service’s next big update will drop.
PlayStation Plus subscribers signed up for the Extra and Premium tiers of the service have a very busy day ahead of them. Tuesday, January 20 will be when the next big PlayStation Plus update drops, with nine new games coming to the service as four other titles make their departure.
PlayStation Plus’ Extra and Premium tiers work much differently than the Essential tier. Games added to the PS Plus Essential tier are effectively «free» games that subscribers can retain access to indefinitely as long as they are signed up for the service. In contrast, games in the Extra and Premium tier are rotated in and out of availability, ala Xbox Game Pass. There’s typically one big update to the PS Plus Extra and Premium tiers every month, and this month it lands on January 20.
On January 20, PS Plus Extra and Premium subscribers can look forward to playing A Little to the Left, A Quiet Place: The Road Ahead, Art of Rally, Darkest Dungeon, Expeditions: A Mudrunner Game, Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth, Resident Evil Village, and The Exit 8, with PS1 classic Ridge Racer available exclusively to the Premium tier.
