However, those with PS Plus Extra or Premium should make sure to claim those as soon as possible too. The PS Plus free games for January 2023 include Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order, Axiom Verge 2, and Fallout 76. The titles made available today all match these games in quality, if obviously exceeding them in quantity.

Of course, while the addition of these new games is welcome, more and more titles have been leaving PS Plus in recent months. That’s the nature of the subscription service as it gets off its feet, no longer being a “new” service. These 12 games are joining the serving, but 10 games are also leaving PS Plus Extra today. These include the following: Bound by Flame, The Council, Electronic Super Joy, Enigmatis: The Ghosts of Maple Creek, The Last Tinker: City of Colors, Leo’s Fortune, Masters of Anima, Seasons After Fall, Shiness: The Lightning Kingdom, and Space Hulk: Tactics.
Either way, fans are now able to dive into the latest PS Plus games, but some may also be looking forward to February now. The reveal of the PS Plus free games for February 2023 may come later than most anticipate, since the last Wednesday of January 2023 (the standard reveal date) is actually about two weeks before the first Tuesday of February (the standard release date). As a result, fans will likely learn more about the next slew of free games on February 1 and the next slate of Extra, Premium games beyond that.
PS Plus subscribers get a handful of games every month.
