The PlayStation Plus Game Catalog for July 2026 starts rolling out today, July 15, 2026, with Rise of the Ronin in the United States and United Kingdom. Japan receives Team Ninja’s open-world action RPG on July 16. Canada and every region outside those three markets receive the complete nine-game lineup on July 21, when Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora also completes its rollout.
Firefighting Simulator: Ignite is the most unusual addition, with cooperative play for three friends and an NPC-controlled crew option. Dying Light, Citizen Sleeper 2: Starward Vector, Mighty Morphin Power Rangers: Rita’s Rewind, and Snow Bros. Wonderland arrive July 21 in Canada and other regions, followed by the United States, United Kingdom, and Japan on July 28. PlayStation Plus Premium adds Psi-Ops: The Mindgate Conspiracy and Indigo Prophecy globally on July 21. Here’s what each game adds to July’s lineup.
PlayStation Plus Game Catalog Games for July 2026
The seven main Game Catalog additions are available to PlayStation Plus Extra and Premium members.
Rise of the Ronin
Platform: PS5
Team Ninja sets Rise of the Ronin in Japan during 1863. War, disease, political unrest, and arriving Western ships have placed the country in a period of major change. You control a nameless warrior travelling through its open world as those conflicts unfold.
Team Ninja is also the studio behind Nioh and Ninja Gaiden. Rise of the Ronin is July’s combat-focused open-world addition and the game I’d start first.
Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora
Platform: PS5
Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora takes you to the Western Frontier, a previously unseen part of Pandora. You play as a Na’vi who was abducted and trained by the RDA before becoming free 15 years later.
The first-person adventure follows the character’s return home and renewed connection with Pandora. Other Na’vi clans join the fight against the RDA across the open world.
Firefighting Simulator: Ignite
Platform: PS5
Firefighting Simulator: Ignite supports cooperative play with three friends, while an NPC-controlled crew can join anyone playing without a full group. Missions take place across a fictional American Midwest city and centre on rescuing civilians from burning buildings.
Fire, heat, and smoke are simulated in real time. Unreal Engine 5 powers the game’s physics and graphics.
Citizen Sleeper 2: Starward Vector
Platform: PS5
Citizen Sleeper 2: Starward Vector follows a Sleeper whose artificial body contains a copy of a human mind. After taking control of a ship, you recruit a crew and accept contracts across the Starward Belt.
Tabletop-inspired dice determine many contract outcomes. Your selected class and crew affect the choices available during each job.
Dying Light
Platform: PS4
Dying Light takes place in a city overwhelmed by a zombie virus. The first-person survival game combines exploration and combat as you survive the infected streets and protect the people still trapped inside.
Cooperative play lets you enter the city with others. The story also places your original orders against the needs of the remaining survivors.
Mighty Morphin Power Rangers: Rita’s Rewind
Platform: PS5, PS4
Mighty Morphin Power Rangers: Rita’s Rewind is a two-dimensional brawler that revisits events from across the franchise. Familiar encounters change after Robo Rita travels into the past and joins a younger Rita Repulsa.
Their plan is to stop the Power Rangers from forming. That interference brings enemies and events from different parts of the Mighty Morphin Power Rangers timeline together.
Snow Bros. Wonderland
Platform: PS5
Snow Bros. Wonderland moves the series from its earlier two-dimensional format into a three-dimensional isometric adventure. Ice pellets turn enemies into snowballs that can be kicked through nearby monsters.
Chaining those attacks clears larger groups before the same idea carries into the boss fights.
PlayStation Plus Premium Adds Two PlayStation 2 Games
Both PlayStation Plus Premium additions become available globally on July 21, 2026. Each game is playable on PS5 and PS4.
Psi-Ops: The Mindgate Conspiracy
Platform: PS5, PS4
Psi-Ops: The Mindgate Conspiracy follows elite agent Nick Scryer as he investigates rogue operatives connected to the Mindgate Project. Telekinesis turns nearby objects into weapons, while pyrokinesis and mind control create other ways to handle enemies.
Stealth and environmental puzzles sit between the psychic fights.
Indigo Prophecy
Platform: PS5, PS4
Indigo Prophecy was Quantic Dream’s first interactive drama. Its paranormal thriller begins with ordinary people committing similar murders after falling under supernatural control.
The story follows both sides of the murder conspiracy as the mystery grows. The original game was released as Fahrenheit outside North America, Portugal, and France.
Rise of the Ronin Leads PlayStation Plus Game Catalog for July 2026
Rise of the Ronin is the game I’d start with in July. Team Ninja’s 1863 Japan setting and combat-focused action put it at the top of my list. Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora is another large open-world adventure for anyone who missed it when it first launched.
PlayStation Plus Premium also has a fun pair of PlayStation 2 games with Psi-Ops: The Mindgate Conspiracy and Indigo Prophecy. Firefighting Simulator: Ignite could also be an interesting one to play with a full cooperative crew.
Canada receives all nine games on July 21, 2026. The staggered rollout in the United States, United Kingdom, and Japan finishes on July 28. Game Catalog and Premium or Deluxe lineups may differ by region, so check your regional PlayStation Store as each date arrives. Which July addition are you planning to play first?
