When do the November PS Plus games come out?
Sony gives the window as November 3 to November 30, 2026, and its lineup graphic carries the same dates (11/03/2026 to 11/30/2026). The blog post does not give an hour. In recent months the monthly games have gone live region by region on the Tuesday rather than at one global time: Push Square reported June 2026’s games live in the UK and Europe by 09:00 UTC, with US accounts getting them later the same day. Expect the same staggered rollout on November 3.
| What | UTC / UK (GMT) | US Eastern (EST) | US Pacific (PST) |
|---|---|---|---|
| November games claimable | Tue, Nov 3 (hour not announced) | Tue, Nov 3 | Tue, Nov 3 |
| Last day to claim November games | Mon, Nov 30 | Mon, Nov 30 | Mon, Nov 30 |
| Last day to claim October games | Mon, Nov 2 | Mon, Nov 2 | Mon, Nov 2 |
Clocks have changed by then: the UK is back on GMT (UTC+0) from October 25, and the US on EST (UTC-5) and PST (UTC-8) from November 1. As Sony’s graphic notes, monthly games stay playable only while your PS Plus subscription is active.

What each game is
Dead Island 2 (PS5, PS4)
Dambuster Studios’ zombie action RPG, set in a quarantined, undead Los Angeles (“HELL-A”). The focus is melee combat with customisable weapons, quests across well-known LA locations and online co-op for up to three players. It returns to PS Plus after leaving the Extra and Premium Game Catalog in August, as Insider Gaming reported at the time. This time, Essential members can claim it too. For background, see our older piece on how Dead Island 2 handles gore and dismemberment.
Tomb Raider IV-VI Remastered (PS5, PS4)
Aspyr’s remaster of the “Darkness Trilogy”: Tomb Raider: The Last Revelation, Tomb Raider: Chronicles and Tomb Raider: The Angel of Darkness. Like the earlier I-III collection, it lets you switch between the original polygonal models and the remastered graphics at any time.

Monster Train 2 (PS5)
Shiny Shoe’s single-player sequel to the deckbuilding roguelite. You lead clans of former angels and demons on trains through Hell, Heaven and the Abyss, defending three vertical levels against the Titans who have taken over Heaven. There are five new clans to choose from. It is the only November game without a PS4 version.

How to claim the PS Plus monthly games
- From November 3, open each game’s page on the PlayStation Store (console, app or web) while signed in to an account with any PS Plus tier, then select “Add to Library”. You don’t have to download a game to keep it claimed.
- Dead Island 2 and Tomb Raider IV-VI Remastered are listed for both PS5 and PS4; Monster Train 2 is PS5 only, so PS4 owners can’t play it.
- Claim October’s games before November 2. After that date they can no longer be added.
What else is changing on PS Plus in November
Extra and Premium members are also losing some big catalog games this month, led by GTA 5 and Red Dead Redemption 2. Our list of games leaving PS Plus in November 2026 has the dates. Sony usually reveals the month’s Extra and Premium catalog additions separately, around mid-month. For October’s catalog see PS Plus Extra October 2026. Xbox’s lineup so far is in our Game Pass November 2026 roundup, and if you’d rather buy, our Black Friday 2026 gaming deals hub tracks the confirmed sales.
What’s next
We’ll confirm when the three games go live on November 3 and cover the November Extra and Premium catalog once Sony announces it. Based on Sony’s usual last-Wednesday reveal, December’s monthly games should be announced around November 25.
