Sony Interactive Entertainment revealed several new titles joining its PlayStation Plus Game Catalog in August 2026 for PS4 and PS5 players worldwide [1, 2, 3]. Helldivers 2 will be available starting August 12 exclusively for PS5 subscribers [1, 2, 3]. On August 18, Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2, a medieval RPG released in February 2025 and an early 2025 Game of the Year contender, will join the catalog alongside Vampire Survivors, which will be available for both PS4 and PS5 [1, 2, 3].
Additional titles entering the catalog include Onimusha: Dawn of Dreams, Disney's Atlantis: The Lost Empire, and several others. Disney’s Atlantis launched for PlayStation Plus Premium subscribers on July 21 globally, despite some reports suggesting an August 18 release [2, 3]. Other games such as Hell is Us, Umamusume Pretty Derby – Party Dash, Two Point Museum, Metro Exodus, and Dying Light 2 will become available in waves during August; some discrepancies exist about Hell is Us’s release date, with sources confirming August 25 availability in the US, UK, and Japan but differing on whether a global August 18 launch occurred [1, 2, 3].
Access to the PlayStation Plus Game Catalog requires a subscription at the Extra or Premium tier, which is above the Essential tier level [1, 3]. August’s PS Plus Essential lineup includes Big Walk, another Game of the Year contender [1].
According to the announced timeline, Helldivers 2 arrives first on August 12, followed by the August 18 debut of Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2, Vampire Survivors, and Onimusha: Dawn of Dreams. Additional titles like Hell is Us and Metro Exodus will be added on August 25 for subscribers in key regions including the US, UK, and Japan [1, 2, 3].
