The PlayStation Plus Collection is one of the best things the PS5 has going for it. Unfortunately, Sony’s killing it, and current subscribers only have a few months left to claim certified bangers like Bloodborne and Resident Evil 7 before the curated collection disappears for good.
Thank You, PS Plus, For Making My Backlog Even Bigger

Sony broke the news on Wednesday in a new PlayStation Blog post about upcoming PS Plus games. “We also wanted to provide an update on the PlayStation Plus Collection that has been offered as a benefit to PlayStation Plus members on PS5 since 2020,” read a paragraph buried at the end. “On May 9 the PlayStation Plus Collection will no longer be offered. If you haven’t redeemed the titles in this collection yet, you can still do so until May 9, which will enable you to access those titles even after this date for as long as you remain a PlayStation Plus member.”
What games are in the PS Plus Collection?
Announced alongside the launch of the PS5, the special collection includes 19 games (Persona 5 was previously removed), including a bunch of big-first party blockbusters from Sony’s back catalog:
Batman: Arkham KnightBattlefield 1BloodborneCall of Duty: Black Ops 3 (Zombie Chronicles Edition)Crash Bandicoot N. Sane TrilogyDays GoneDetroit: Become HumanFallout 4Final Fantasy 15God of WarInfamous Second SonMonster Hunter WorldMortal Kombat XRatchet and ClankResident Evil 7: BiohazardThe Last GuardianThe Last of Us RemasteredUncharted 4: A Thief’s EndUntil Dawn
How do I claim the PS Plus Collection games for free?
All good things must come to an end I suppose, but fortunately the collection will still exist for paid subscribers who claim the games before the May 9 deadline. To do that you simply:
Go over to the PS Plus tile on the far left of the PS5 homescreen Select it and scroll all the way to the bottom until you see the “PlayStation Plus Collection icon”Select view games, select each one, and choose “Add to Library”
The games will then be available to download and play whenever you want as long as your PS Plus subscription is still active. Anything you don’t claim before the collection goes away will revert back to its standard price in the PlayStation Store.
