10 PlayStation titles leaving PS Plus Extra/Premium next month

Harper Cole 08/20/2026

The world of console gaming often involves exciting additions, but sometimes, the journey involves difficult goodbyes. For PlayStation Plus subscribers, this means navigating the constant cycle of new content alongside the inevitable removals, a practice that has recently taken center stage for the PlayStation platform.

As Sony continues to refresh its PlayStation Plus subscription service with new and returning games each month, the platform makers occasionally make tough decisions about which titles to keep and which to let go. With August’s additions now confirmed, the company has announced that a total of ten titles are slated to depart the service next month, setting the stage for a digital cleanup.

Fans looking to check the line-up for the upcoming month can find the specific titles scheduled for removal in the dedicated section of the PlayStation 5.

These ten titles include a mix of current and classic installments that are set to exit the PS Plus Extra and Premium tiers. The list includes titles such as EA Sports Madden NFL 26, Persona 5 Tactica, Romance of the Three Kingdoms XIII, Toukiden 2, Bubsy: The Woolies Strike Back, and several retro gems like Toy Story 2: Buzz Lightyear to the Rescue! (PS1 ver) and Toy Story 3 (PSP ver).

The removals aren’t entirely disappointing, however. It is interesting to note that some of the titles being taken off the service are PlayStation Plus Premium classics. This suggests that the service isn’t just about new releases; it’s also about curating a library that balances the new with the nostalgic.

This move likely paves the way for bigger celebrations down the line. There are plans to release a compilation of classic Toy Story games via a Retro Roundup collection later this year, offering fans a chance to relive some of their favorite memories in a dedicated package.

This presents a brief window for subscribers to explore these titles before they are removed from the service. Whether you are a fan of the classic retro titles or are keen on catching up on the latest additions, now is the time to dive into the current PS Plus offerings.
