What else should I consider? If you haven’t claimed the games from the previous month for PS Plus yet, you should hurry. Once the new games are available, the old ones will be turned off again.
If you want to get the games, you will need the paid “PS Plus” subscription for your PS4 or PS5. Sony significantly increased the price of PS Plus at the end of 2023. If your subscription is still active, you are not affected by this yet.
