PlayStation Plus is getting classic, PS4, and PS5 games

In preparation for the launch of the new PlayStation Plus service, Sony is set to introduce a raft of new games to the Extra and Premium tiers. Alongside PS4 and PS5 titles such as Ghost of Tsushima Director's Cut and Demon's Souls remake, Plus subscribers will also get classics from PS1 and PSP, including Tekken 2 and Syphon Filter.

As if the Ubisoft+ games coming to PlayStation Plus weren't enough, subscribers will now have an even bigger library once the service is available in their region. In addition to these games, Premium subs will also have access to multiple PS3 games via streaming and time-limited game trials. Sony will be refreshing the lineup of games on the first Tuesday of the month for the Plus Essential members, but Extra and Premium tiers will get an additional monthly refresh in the middle of each month.
