Sony's revamped PlayStation Plus, launched in June 2022, offers a tiered subscription service granting access to a vast library of PlayStation games spanning various eras and genres. This includes a significant selection of open-world titles, catering to diverse tastes from first-person shooters to RPGs and survival games. Both the Extra and Premium tiers offer extensive open-world game choices, but choosing where to begin can be overwhelming. This guide highlights some of the best open-world games available on PS Plus, noting that while all featured titles are on the Premium tier, availability may vary on the Extra tier. The list prioritizes recently added games and doesn't strictly rank by overall quality.
This list was updated January 13, 2025, to include a noteworthy, albeit divisive, open-world title added to the PS Plus Essential tier.
Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League (PS Plus Essential - January 2025)
This recently added title, while not universally acclaimed, deserves mention due to its open-world design and current availability on PS Plus Essential.
