As an added bonus this month, Premium and Extra members will be able to play The Last Of Us Part Two this Friday (September 26) as part of this year’s The Last Of Us Day celebrations.

PlayStation 4 users will be able to play the original game while PS5 owners will be able to download The Last Of Us Part Two Remastered.

There are currently three different tiers to the PlayStation Plus service: Essential gives players access to a number of games that rotate monthly, as well as enabling online multiplayer for £6.99 a month. Extra is available for £10.99 and gives subscribers access to Game Catalogue, a library of “hundreds of games from genre-defining blockbusters to innovative indies”. Premium adds more classic titles and game trials to the offering for £13.49 a month.

September has already seen WWE 2K25, Persona 5 Tactics, Legacy of Kain: Defiance and more added to the service and Sony has also confirmed a trio of games set to join PlayStation Plus Essentials in October – Alan Wake 2, Goat Simulator 3 and Cocoon.

Earlier this year, Sony confirmed Plus would be “shifting focus” to the PlayStation 5 from the start of 2026. “PS4 games will no longer be a key benefit and will only be occasionally offered for PlayStation Plus Monthly Games and Game Catalog starting January 2026,” explained a statement. “We may still provide titles that can be playable on both PS4 and PS5 consoles after this date.”

Earlier this year, The Last Of Us Part Two got a controversial new update that lets you play through Abby and Ellie’s story chronologically.

“Through the new Chronological mode, we believe players will gain even deeper insight into Part 2’s narrative. Players will be able to see how Ellie being gifted a guitar flows so neatly into her learning to play, for example, while the journey through Seattle will showcase the fascinating parallels between Ellie and Abby’s crisscrossing journeys,” explained Naughty Dog. “You’ll see just how close they come into running into each other, how their actions impact each other, and more.”
