Players have until September 2 to claim three games worth $155 on PlayStation Plus, with an extra two games available to those with PS Plus Extra and PS Plus Premium subscriptions. These three games were released as part of the August 2025 PS Plus catalog, and time is running out for users to download the lineup, which includes a massive standout title, an online survival game, and a lesser-known sequel to a 2018 fighting game.
The PlayStation Plus subscription program allows players to have access to select titles for no additional cost each month, with three separate tiers determining which titles a user will have available to them. Once claimed, players can enjoy these games indefinitely, as long as they maintain their PS Plus subscription, though there are some titles that may be deactivated or removed from the service. For August 2025, fans with a PS Plus Essential or higher subscription were given unique grouping of games, and the clock is ticking for players wanting to snag these free offerings.

DayZ originally launched in early access back in 2013 and officially released its 1.0 version in 2018 to mixed reviews. The online multiplayer survival game sees players fighting against infected enemies while struggling to endure a post-apocalyptic world. Last but not least, PS Plus users can grab My Hero One's Justice 2, a 2020 fighting game from Byking and Bandai Namco.

In addition to the three games available to all PS Plus subscribers, PS Plus Extra and PS Plus Premium also have one last chance to grab two day-one titles from the August 2025 catalog: Sword of the Sea and The Rogue Prince of Persia. Sword of the Sea, from the makers of Journey and Abzu, takes players on a stunning journey to restore a lost ocean, while The Rogue Prince of Persia brings fast-paced combat and action platforming for a roguelite experience. Lies of P, DayZ, and My Hero One's Justice 2 have a combined retail value of $155, while Sword of the Sea and The Rogue Prince of Persia increase total savings for PS Plus users by another $29.99 each.
