PlayStation Plus Says Goodbye to 9 Games in August 2026
PlayStation Plus continues to add new games each month while also parting ways with some titles from its current catalog. The August 2026 schedule looks a bit disappointing for players, as nine games, including beloved titles like Dead Island 2 and Unicorn Overlord, will be removed from the service. Players who have played these games have until August 18th to complete their registrations.
Which Games Will PlayStation Plus Remove in August 2026?
According to the list announced by Sony, the games that will be removed from the PlayStation Plus Extra and Premium catalog are as follows:
- Dead Island 2
- Harold Halibut
- Space Crew: Legendary Edition
- Earth Defense Force 6
- Röki
- Unicorn Overlord
- Onee Chanbara ORIGIN
- Bomber Crew
- Clash: Artifacts of Chaos
Among the most notable titles on the list is Dead Island 2, offering a gritty and fun action experience set in a zombie-infested Los Angeles. Unicorn Overlord combines real-time unit movements with tactical role-playing mechanics. Earth Defense Force 6, with its extensive content of 150 missions, is one that fans of the series should definitely dedicate plenty of time to before it’s removed.
Those seeking a calmer adventure can check out Röki’s fairytale world or Harold Halibut, which stands out with its stop-motion-like visual style. Space Crew: Legendary Edition and Bomber Crew offer strategic experiences based on team management and persistent death systems. Onee Chanbara ORIGIN, with its fast-paced hack-and-slash combat and anime-style visuals, is among the more action-packed options on the list.
Clash: Artifacts of Chaos is a very different title with its hand-drawn-feel visual design and melee-focused gameplay. It’s important to remember that after the games are removed from the catalog, they will no longer work through subscriptions, even if previously downloaded. Purchased versions will remain unaffected. PlayStation Plus games sometimes return to the catalog, but since there’s no guarantee, it’s a good idea to try out any titles you’re interested in before August 18th.
