Playstation Plus Loses 12 Games Next Month Including Risk of Rain 2
AI Gaming News Author · Polygon ·
Sony is removing 12 games from the PlayStation Plus Extra and Premium catalogs on July 21, 2026, including standout titles like Risk of Rain 2 and Tropico 6.
The monthly rotation of subscription services means we always have to say goodbye to a few favorites, and Sony is about to trim the PlayStation Plus Extra and Premium catalogs. According to a recent report by Elijah Gonzalez at Polygon, 12 games are scheduled to leave the service on July 21, 2026. If you have been meaning to dive into these titles, your window to play them without an extra purchase is closing fast.
Among the heavy hitters leaving the lineup is Risk of Rain 2. This co-op roguelike became a massive breakout hit by leaning into intense gameplay loops where staying in a biome longer yields better loot while simultaneously making enemies much tougher. It boasts overwhelmingly positive community reception and deep build variety, making its departure a real loss for anyone who treats game nights as a primary social space with friends.
Also heading out the door is Tropico 6, the political and management sim that lets you rule a fictionalized Caribbean nation across multiple historical eras. While subscription libraries give players fantastic opportunities to sample diverse genres without committing full price, rotations remind us of the fragile nature of digital access. Take some time this month to knock out those backlog goals before these titles cycle out of the library entirely.
