The latest PS Plus drop, packed with Spider-Man and Mortal Kombat, is set to land incredibly soon, meaning there's not long left before your gaming backlog gets a whole lot longer.

PS Plus has been treating subscribers to some pretty impressive titles recently. The PS Plus Essential August drop took the chance to gift all subscribers an incredibly strong selection of games, with Lies of P and Day Z arriving to ensure that no one has an excuse not to fight for survival across two vastly different worlds – but it's Extra and Premium subscribers getting the best part of the deal.

The PS Plus Extra and Premium July release gave players quite the surprise when it unexpectedly dropped Cyberpunk 2077 on the same day, and offered fans the opportunity to pick up the game's Phantom Liberty DLC at a discount. No one could have predicted it, and even though it arrived alongside Abiotic Factor and a number of other grand titles, few stood up to the RPG behemoth. And now, even more fantastic games are on their way.

Despite the PS Plus Extra and Premium August 2025 games being led by the colossal Mortal Kombat 1, it's been largely overshadowed by Marvel's Spider-Man, arguably PlayStation's most replayable first-party game, and the debut of Sword of the Sea, a fresh release from the creators of Abzu. It's a significant event, to say the least, and with the original versions of Resident Evil 2 and 3 also making an appearance, players won't be left twiddling their thumbs.

Fortunately for us, we don't have much longer to wait for these games to land – so when exactly can we expect them. Here's what you need to know about the PS Plus Extra and Premium August 2025 games release time.

PS Plus Extra and Premium August 2025 games release time

The PS Plus Extra and Premium August 2025 games are set to be released at 2am PDT / 5am EDT / 10am BST on Tuesday, August 19. We know this because the games of any given PS Plus update are always released at this time on the Tuesday following their announcement, which is typically the second Wednesday of every month, and after Sony has announced the date as part of the games' initial reveal.

It's great news that there isn't long to wait for the new games to arrive, as there are so many games of varying styles on offer that fans are bound to find something they'll adore. Whether you're soaring through the skies or delivering low kicks, dive right in.
