PlayStation Plus Game Catalog for May 2026

Adds Star Wars Outlaws, Red Dead Redemption 2, and More

PlayStation Plus subscribers are getting another strong month of games in May 2026, with Sony officially revealing the newest additions coming to the PlayStation Plus Game Catalog for Extra and Premium members, alongside this month’s free Monthly Games lineup available to all subscribers.

This month’s catalog update brings a mix of massive open-world adventures, RPGs, action games, indie experiences, and even a classic arcade title for Premium members. From Ubisoft’s ambitious Star Wars Outlaws to the return of Red Dead Redemption 2, May’s lineup offers something for nearly every type of player.

Here’s everything arriving this month on PlayStation Plus.

PlayStation Plus Extra and Premium – May 2026

Star Wars Outlaws | PS5

One of the biggest additions this month is Star Wars Outlaws, Ubisoft’s open-world Star Wars adventure. Set between The Empire Strikes Back and Return of the Jedi, the game follows outlaw Kay Vess as she navigates criminal syndicates, dangerous planets, and large-scale heists across the galaxy.

The game generated a lot of attention when it launched thanks to its cinematic presentation, exploration, and open-world structure. For PlayStation Plus subscribers who waited to jump in, this is easily one of the standout additions of the month.

Red Dead Redemption 2 | PS4

Rockstar’s legendary western returns to PlayStation Plus once again.

Even years after release, Red Dead Redemption 2 remains one of the most impressive open-world games ever created. The game delivers an incredible level of detail, storytelling, environmental design, and immersion that still holds up today.

Whether you are returning to Arthur Morgan’s journey or experiencing it for the first time, this alone makes May one of the strongest PlayStation Plus months in recent memory.

Bramble: The Mountain King | PS5, PS4

This dark fantasy adventure combines Nordic folklore with creepy horror elements and puzzle-platforming gameplay. Bramble: The Mountain King became a surprise favorite for many players thanks to its atmospheric world, disturbing creature designs, and emotional storytelling.

If you enjoy shorter narrative-driven experiences with unique visual direction, this is one worth checking out.

The Thaumaturge | PS5

The Thaumaturge brings a more narrative-focused RPG experience centered around supernatural powers and detective-style investigations.

Set in an alternate version of Warsaw in the early 1900s, the game mixes turn-based combat with heavy dialogue choices and story-driven exploration. It is one of the more unique RPGs added to the service recently.

Flintlock: The Siege of Dawn | PS5

Mixing fantasy combat with firearms and fast-paced action, Flintlock: The Siege of Dawn delivers a Souls-like-inspired experience with large-scale battles and stylish traversal mechanics.

The game received attention for its fast movement system and cinematic combat design, making it a good pick for players looking for an action-heavy experience this month.

Broken Sword – Shadows of the Templar: Reforged | PS5, PS4

The classic point-and-click adventure returns with a modern remaster.

Broken Sword – Shadows of the Templar: Reforged updates the original game with enhanced visuals while preserving the legendary mystery and puzzle-solving gameplay that made the franchise iconic.

For longtime fans of adventure games, this is a nostalgic addition to the catalog.

Enotria: The Last Song Standard Edition | PS5

Inspired heavily by Italian folklore and theatrical themes, Enotria: The Last Song is another action RPG joining the service this month.

The game stands out visually thanks to its colorful world design and mask-based combat system, offering a different style compared to darker Souls-like experiences.

PlayStation Plus Premium – Classic Addition

Time Crisis | PS5, PS4

Premium subscribers are also getting access to Time Crisis, the legendary arcade shooter that defined an entire era of light-gun games.

While modern controllers obviously change the original arcade experience, it is still exciting to see classic titles like this preserved and added to PlayStation’s subscription library.

For longtime PlayStation players, this is a fun nostalgic addition.

PlayStation Plus Monthly Games – May 2026

In addition to the Game Catalog updates, all PlayStation Plus members can claim this month’s free Monthly Games lineup.

EA Sports FC 26 | PS5, PS4

EA’s newest football simulation arrives as part of the Monthly Games selection, giving subscribers access to one of the biggest sports releases of the year.

Wuchang: Fallen Feathers | PS5

One of the most anticipated action RPGs of the year, Wuchang: Fallen Feathers brings fast-paced Souls-like combat inspired by Chinese mythology and historical settings.

The game has attracted attention for its visual design, enemy variety, and dark fantasy atmosphere.

Nine Sols | PS5, PS4

Nine Sols combines fast-paced combat with hand-drawn art and Metroidvania-style exploration. The game received strong praise from players thanks to its challenging gameplay and unique sci-fi Taoist-inspired world.

Final Thoughts

May 2026 feels like one of the strongest PlayStation Plus months in recent memory, especially for Extra and Premium subscribers.

Having both Star Wars Outlaws and Red Dead Redemption 2 in the same catalog update already gives players dozens — if not hundreds — of hours of content. Meanwhile, games like Bramble, Flintlock, and Enotria help balance the lineup with smaller but interesting experiences that many players may have skipped at launch.

The Monthly Games lineup also feels surprisingly strong this month, especially with newer releases like Wuchang: Fallen Feathers being included as one of May’s free Monthly Games for subscribers. Unlike the Extra and Premium Game Catalog titles, Monthly Games can be claimed and kept in your library for as long as you maintain an active PlayStation Plus subscription, making this one of the more notable additions of the month.
