As the end of December 2025 approaches, the PlayStation Store is set to remove several titles from the PS Plus Extra and Premium subscription services.

In the first wave of removals, the following games have been confirmed to exit the catalog:
- Sayonara Wild Hearts
- Like A Dragon Gaiden: The Man Who Erased His Name
- SD Gundam Battle Alliance
- Monopoly Plus
This list originates from the Japanese PS Store, with expectations that other regions will reflect similar departures once updated.
Potential for Additional Departures
While the current list is concise, users should be aware that Sony may introduce further removals throughout the month. The PS Store often updates its “Last Chance to Play” section, hinting at the possibility of additional titles departing.
Expected Removal Date
The games mentioned are scheduled to leave the PS Plus service by January 20, coinciding with the introduction of next month’s offerings for Extra and Premium members.
Mixed Reactions from Subscribers
Subscribers have expressed disappointment regarding the upcoming games added to the service. Premium and Deluxe members, in particular, noted that only one classic title has been incorporated into the lineup. Furthermore, there is currently no update regarding the status of PSVR2 games within these tiers.
El-Balad will provide updates should more titles be added to the “Last Chance to Play” section or any changes to the subscription services occur in the future.
