ORIGINAL: If you're a PlayStation Plus Extra or Premium subscriber, then you'll be waiting for Sony to announce the new games for July 2024. The next batch of PS Plus Extra and Premium games will be officially unveiled by Sony at 4.30pm BST UK time on July 10. The new games, which consist of various PS4, PS5 and retro games (and maybe even a PSVR 2 title or two), will be available to download and play on the morning of July 16. Sony will also remove a number of games from the PS Plus Extra Catalog, although you can read about that further down the page. Fans will be expecting around a dozen new games, and will be hoping that the line-up is better than last month's, which was headlined by Monster Hunter Rise. Daily Express will keep this article updated with all the latest leaks, developments and official announcements, so keep checking back for more information.
