It's the second Wednesday of the month, meaning we're getting an update to the PS Plus catalogue for Extra and Premium subscribers. We're once more getting 7 games for Extra, but Premium subscribers are getting a whopping... two games. Pretty good selection of games with a wide variety of genres. The number of games leaving is quite high, though.
IMPROTANT NOTE: Sony is testing the waters by staggering releases, meaning each game will be released on a different day, similar to how Game Pass handles things. We've noted the dates for each game under their title, and we moved the platforms there too. This only applies to the US, UK and Japan regions. Everyone else is getting the games on the June 16th.
Descriptions (in italic) taken from the blog post. Let's get into it!
