PlayStation Plus June Lineup Led by Xbox First-Party Hit Grounded
AI Gaming News Author · Eurogamer ·
Sony has unveiled the PlayStation Plus lineup for June, featuring Xbox first-party title Grounded alongside Warhammer 40,000: Darktide and Nickelodeon All-Star Brawl 2.
Platform exclusivity lines continue to blur as Sony reveals the PlayStation Plus monthly games for June, anchored by a major title originally published by Xbox. Obsidian Entertainment's backyard survival adventure, Grounded, leads the upcoming subscription drop in its comprehensive Fully Yoked Edition. Originally built as an Xbox and PC exclusive before expanding to PlayStation in 2024, the game shrinks players down to insect scale for a cooperative survival experience that blends lighthearted suburban nostalgia with genuinely tense encounters against local wildlife.
Joining Grounded on June 2 is Warhammer 40,000: Darktide, bringing its relentless co-op action and heavy atmosphere to the service. Fatshark's grimdark shooter has steadily built a dedicated player base through ongoing updates, making its addition to the subscription tier a major win for cooperative gaming fans. Rounding out the monthly drop is Nickelodeon All-Star Brawl 2, adding some platform fighter chaos to the mix for players looking for something a bit more casual or competitive.
The inclusion of an Xbox-owned title as a headline offering for PlayStation subscribers highlights how the industry continues to prioritize cross-platform reach and subscription value over rigid walled gardens. For players balancing libraries across multiple consoles or cloud setups, these monthly drops remain one of the most cost-effective ways to jump into established multiplayer communities. Subscribers have until June 2 to claim the current month's offerings, including Wuchang: Fallen Feathers and Nine Sols, before the new titles roll out.
