PlayStation Plus August 2025 Monthly Games Features Lies of P, Dayz, and My Hero Academia

/

Sony has officially revealed the PlayStation Plus Monthly Games lineup for August 2025, and it’s a decent offering. Starting August 5, subscribers will get access to the soulslike Lifes of P, Dayz, and My Hero One’s Justice 2

PlayStation Plus Monthly Games for August 2025

Available Starting August 5

  • Lies of P (PS4/PS5)

  • Dayz (PS4)

  • My Hero One’s Justice (PS4)

Lies of P is a solid soulslike if you’re still in an Elden Ring high. You’ll be challenged by the many bosses available, and it features an interesting world inspired by the classic tale of Pinocchio. Dayz may be old, but it remains to have some lasting appeal and is one of the prime games that started the survival shooter subgenre.

What’s the Difference Between Monthly Games and the Game Catalog?

It can still be confusing, especially after getting an update on Monthly Games, then an update on the Game Catalog. So, here’s the breakdown:

  • Monthly Games are available to all PlayStation Plus subscribers (Essential, Extra, and Premium). Once you claim them, they’re yours to keep in your library for as long as you remain subscribed — there’s no expiration date.

  • The Game Catalog (and Classic Catalog) is only available to Extra and Premium subscribers. These libraries offer a rotating selection of games, which can be played while they’re available. However, unlike Monthly Games, titles in the catalog can leave the service, meaning you lose access even if you’re still subscribed.

There’s still time to claim the July 2025 Monthly Games, which features the base version of Diablo IV, KOF XV, and Jusant. These games currently on offer will remain available to claim for your acount until August 4.

For those wondering about the latest additions to the higher tiers of PlayStation Plus, the following games were added to the Game and Classic catalog in July 2025.

Battlefield 6 Review - Battlefield’s Back, Baby

Battlefield 6 is off to a solid start, as the multiplayer is an impressive offering that can provide hours of enjoyment. This is an online game that can easily satisfy any Battlefield veteran, and could seriously compete for your time and retake its space in an already crowded genre. Just don't get it mainly for its campaign.

The Outer Worlds 2 Review – A Much-Improved Second Adventure

The Outer Worlds 2 isn’t Obsidian displaying any major advances in game design or unique innovations that would turn heads. This is a game of solid refinement from a studio that believes so deeply in the world they created in 2019. This resulted in a cohesive and entertaining RPG that could very well solidify as one of their best works today.

Donkey Kong Bananza Review - Beauty and the Banandium-Obsessed Beast

For Donkey Kong fans, Donkey Kong Bananza is an absolute dream come true. But at the end of the day, this is a modern Nintendo game for better and for worse, and that means it’s accessible to a fault, has a sparse story, and a focus on short, simple micro-challenges for quick dopamine hit rewards.
