PlayStation has revealed the PlayStation Plus Game Catalog lineup for March 2026. This month brings a heavier mix of action games, RPGs, shooters, and multiplayer releases. Starting March 17, Extra and Premium members can fight through Tyranid swarms in Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine 2, hit the field in EA Sports Madden NFL 26, return to the Phantom Thieves in Persona 5 Royal, or push through a grim new world in Blasphemous 2.
There is plenty of range here, but the overall tone is more intense than February’s lineup. You have a large third-person action game, a current sports release, a long RPG, a dark side-scrolling action game, a sci-fi shooter, and a few games built around survival, crafting, or open-ended exploration. Premium members also get Tekken Dark Resurrection, bringing a PSP-era fighting game into the March update.
Whether you want something fast and violent, a longer RPG to work through, or a co-op adventure to jump into with friends, March’s catalog adds a solid mix of games across PS5 and PS4.
PlayStation Plus Game Catalog Games March 2026
Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine 2
PS5
Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine 2 puts you back in the armour of Titus for a third-person action campaign built around huge enemy waves, heavy weapons, and close-range combat. The main story is joined by replayable PvE missions for up to three players and 6v6 PvP matches. This is the clearest headliner in March’s lineup. It gives PlayStation Plus a big, combat-heavy action game right at the top.
EA Sports Madden NFL 26
PS5
EA Sports Madden NFL 26 joins the catalog as this month’s sports addition. The update focuses on player movement, quarterback and coach tendencies, and an AI-powered learning model built from years of NFL data. If you follow football each season, this is one of the first games in the March lineup you’ll probably check.
Persona 5 Royal
PS5, PS4
Persona 5 Royal returns with the expanded version of Atlus’ RPG. It adds new characters, new story content, more locations, alternate endings, and more ways to move through dungeons. It also brings back one of PlayStation Plus’ biggest RPGs this month, especially if you missed it the first time or want a reason to head back to Tokyo with the Phantom Thieves.
Persona 5 Royal – Ultimate Edition
PS4
PlayStation is also adding Persona 5 Royal – Ultimate Edition for PS4. It includes the main game and the Persona 5 Royal DLC Pack with costume, battle, and Persona add-ons. That means PS4 players get the main game and its extra content in one listing.
Blasphemous 2
PS5, PS4
Blasphemous 2 continues the story of the Penitent One in another brutal side-scrolling action game filled with twisted enemies, bleak religious imagery, and punishing combat. The world opens up through branching paths, with large boss fights waiting throughout the map. If you liked the first game, this gives March’s lineup a darker and harsher option.
Metal Eden
PS5
Metal Eden brings a sci-fi first-person shooter into the mix. You play as Hyper Unit Aska, sent into the city of Moebius to rescue human cores and uncover what happened to Project Eden. It is a fast first-person shooter built around cybernetic combat, machine enemies, and an artificial world falling apart around you.
The Lord of the Rings: Return to Moria
PS5
The Lord of the Rings: Return to Moria shifts March’s lineup toward survival and crafting. You control a company of Dwarves reclaiming Moria beneath the Misty Mountains, gathering resources, building shelter, and pushing farther underground. The procedurally generated setting and online co-op support mean each trip into Moria can play out differently.
Astroneer
PS5, PS4
Astroneer brings a more open-ended sandbox to the catalog. You dig into planets, reshape terrain, gather resources, and build out bases across a seven-planet solar system. It’s a calmer addition than most of the March lineup. It also gives you something more creative when you want a break from war zones, monsters, and boss fights.
PlayStation Plus Premium | Tekken Dark Resurrection
PS5, PS4
Premium members get Tekken Dark Resurrection, the expanded version of Tekken 5 Dark Resurrection that first appeared in arcades and on PSP. It includes story content for characters like Armor King, Lili, and Dragunov, along with modes such as Story Battle, Quick Battle, Arcade Battle, Practice, Tekken Bowl, Gold Rush, and Tekken Dojo. For Premium, it adds a fighting game with a long mode list and a familiar Tekken roster.
Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine 2 Leads a Harder-Hitting March Lineup
Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine 2 is the clear headliner this month. March’s catalog is also shaped by how much of it is built around combat, action, and replayable multiplayer. Madden NFL 26 gives sports fans something current. Persona 5 Royal adds a huge RPG. Games like Blasphemous 2 and Metal Eden keep the overall mix pointed toward darker and faster experiences.
Astroneer and Return to Moria also bring some range to the lineup. Tekken Dark Resurrection also gives Premium members a fighting game with plenty to work through. Compared with February, this month looks much more action-heavy from top to bottom.
