PS Plus November 2026: Sony hasn't announced the games, and we expect them on Nov. 3

Sony hasn't announced the PS Plus games for November 2026 as of Oct. 18, 2026. Expected date: the monthly games for all members around Tuesday, Nov. 3, after a PlayStation Blog reveal around Wednesday, Oct. 28, at 8:30 a.m. PT, and the Game Catalog additions for PS Plus Extra and Premium around Tuesday, Nov. 17. Those are our estimates, based on Sony's schedule through 2026: October's monthly games went live on the first Tuesday, Oct. 6, after a Sept. 30 post, and October's Game Catalog games arrive on the third Tuesday, Oct. 20. Until then, members can still claim October's monthly games, F1 25, Hunt: Showdown 1896 and Earth Defense Force: World Brothers 2, until Monday, Nov. 2. In November 2025, the monthly games were Stray, EA Sports WRC 24 and Totally Accurate Battle Simulator, and Grand Theft Auto V joined the Game Catalog.

Sony hasn’t revealed November’s PS Plus games yet. Here’s when we expect them, what you can still claim and what November looked like in 2025.

What are the PS Plus games for November 2026?

Sony hasn’t announced them. As of Oct. 18, 2026, the PlayStation Blog hasn’t posted the November monthly games for all members or the November Game Catalog additions for PS Plus Extra and Premium, and Sony hasn’t confirmed any title.

Expected date: around Tuesday, Nov. 3, 2026, for the monthly games, and around Tuesday, Nov. 17, for the Game Catalog. That’s our estimate, not an official schedule, and the reveal would come the week before each one.

When Sony usually announces PS Plus games

October’s monthly games went live on the first Tuesday of the month, Oct. 6, as November 2025’s did on Nov. 4, 2025. Sony’s reveal posts for the monthly games came on a Tuesday or Wednesday of the week before throughout 2026, and October’s went up on Wednesday, Sept. 30, at 8:30 a.m. PT. The same pattern points to a post around Wednesday, Oct. 28, at 8:30 a.m. PT, or 11:30 a.m. ET.

The Game Catalog posts usually came on a Wednesday in the middle of the month, with the games arriving the following Tuesday. October’s post went up on Oct. 14 for games joining on Oct. 20, so November’s would land around Nov. 11, with the games on Nov. 17.

The October monthly games, F1 25, Hunt: Showdown 1896 and Earth Defense Force: World Brothers 2, stay available until Monday, Nov. 2. Once you add them to your library, you can keep playing them as long as you remain a member.
