An Especially Valuable Subscription This August
As the month begins and PlayStation Plus celebrates its 15th anniversary, Sony presents a fresh lineup of games for its subscribers. Those enjoying the Essential plan can anticipate a notably compelling assortment: intense action, anime, and dark fairy tales converge in August 2025 – all at no additional charge.
The title that is expected to garner the most interest is Lies of P. This action RPG from the South Korean developer Neowiz has rapidly built a dedicated following due to its Soulslike mechanics and its bleak take on the Pinocchio story. Reviewers have notably commended the atmosphere, the combat mechanics, and the equilibrium between difficulty and fairness. For PlayStation users, accessing it through PS Plus is an ideal way to dive in – especially since the game has just launched a substantial DLC.
Additionally, there’s something fresh beyond fairy tale horror. The PvP-focused survival game “DayZ” unleashes its unforgiving zombie apocalypse on PlayStation consoles – complete with full server functionality and an extensive crafting system. It continues to be one of the rare games that retains its allure after years due to its unpredictability and brutal suspense. If you’re aiming to survive, you’ll need allies and resilience.
Additional Offerings from Sony
The third entry in the PS Plus lineup is a delight for anime enthusiasts. My Hero One’s Justice 2 allows players to duel in rapid-fire 3D arenas featuring characters from the My Hero Academia universe. The special moves are thrilling, and the gameplay is simple – perfect for couch co-op sessions and fans eager to step into the role of heroes.
All three games will be accessible on the PlayStation Store starting August 5, available for download by subscribers of the Essential, Extra, and Premium tiers. The games will stay in your library as long as your subscription remains active.
In celebration of this significant anniversary, Sony has curated a digital gift: a collection of exclusive PSN avatars inspired by popular games like God of War, Hogwarts Legacy, and Cyberpunk 2077. These cosmetic additions are designed not only for fans but also reflect the incredible journey of PS Plus over the past 15 years.
