In 2025 PlayStation Plus is growing and improving itself and the service is getting better and more refined. As we know PS Plus brings a new lineup of games every month for its subscribers, so it’s June 2025, and you will see a new and exciting games lineup across three tiers (Essential, Extra, Premium).
Sony has packed this month with a fresh lineup of titles, some major AAA hits, and a few hidden gems that are worth your time. This month’s update brings a mix of blockbuster shooters, atmospheric horror, nostalgic RPGs, and relaxing simulators Such as: “ NBA 2K25, Destiny 2: The Final Shape, Bomb Rush Cyberfunk, FBC: Firebreak, Battlefield 2042, Train Sim World 5, Endless Dungeon, Five Nights at Freddy’s: Help Wanted 2” etc.
