Sony has officially revealed the lineup of games scheduled to depart the PlayStation Plus Extra and Premium catalogs in mid-July 2025. This monthly rotation will see six notable titles removed from the PS Plus service, including several critically acclaimed games that have been fan favorites.

Compared to previous months, July's PS Plus game removal is relatively modest in scale. Earlier this year, subscribers saw a massive exodus of 22 titles in May, followed by six in June. While the number of departing games varies each month, this lighter rotation comes as welcome news for players wanting to maximize their subscription value. PlayStation typically announces these changes through the 'Last Chance to Play' section on the PlayStation Store, giving members several weeks' notice to complete their playthroughs.

The six games confirmed for removal on Tuesday, July 15, 2025 include some significant titles:

• Crisis Core: Final Fantasy 7 Reunion
• Dying Light 2: Stay Human
• Remnant 2
• Job Simulator
• Mount and Blade 2: Bannerlord
• Vampire: The Masquerade - Swansong

Among these, Dying Light 2 stands out as particularly noteworthy. The 2022 open-world action RPG earned widespread praise for its fluid parkour mechanics and intense zombie combat, translating to impressive sales of 5 million copies in its first month alone. Its departure will leave a noticeable gap in the PS Plus catalog for action game enthusiasts.

Crisis Core: Final Fantasy 7 Reunion represents another significant loss for JRPG fans. This 2022 remaster of the beloved PSP title delivers an enhanced version of Zack Fair's story, complete with upgraded combat and visuals. Meanwhile, Vampire: The Masquerade - Swansong offers a unique narrative-driven experience in a dark, atmospheric setting.
