Sony has confirmed the PS Plus November 2026 games for every tier: Dead Island 2, Tomb Raider IV-VI Remastered and Monster Train 2. All three can be added to your library from Tuesday, November 3, until Monday, November 30, at no extra cost for Essential, Extra and Premium members.

It is a varied month: a co-op zombie slasher, a trilogy of classic Lara Croft adventures that lands right after the series' 30th anniversary, and a well-reviewed deckbuilding roguelite. Below you will find what each game offers, which consoles it runs on and what to grab before October's lineup disappears.

PS Plus November 2026 games: dates and platforms

According to the official announcement on the PlayStation Blog, written by Sony's Adam Michel, this is the full lineup:

Advertisement View official GAMIVO offer
  • Dead Island 2: PS5 and PS4.
  • Tomb Raider IV-VI Remastered: PS5 and PS4.
  • Monster Train 2: PS5 only.

The usual rule applies: you need to claim each game during the November 3–30 window. Once it is in your library, it stays playable for as long as your subscription is active, even after it leaves the monthly lineup. Monthly games are part of every tier, so you do not need Extra or Premium to get them. If you are still deciding which plan makes sense, our guide to PS Plus Essential vs Extra vs Premium breaks down what each tier includes.

Dead Island 2: co-op zombie carnage in HELL-A

Dambuster Studios' first-person action RPG drops you into a quarantined Los Angeles, nicknamed HELL-A, overrun by mutated zombies. It is built around brutal melee combat, a huge arsenal of weapons you can modify, and six playable Slayers with their own skills. You can play solo or team up with up to three players in online co-op.

Two details are worth knowing before you download. First, Deep Silver's official FAQ says crossplay only works between the Steam and Epic versions on PC, so PlayStation players will be matched with other PlayStation players. Second, Sony's post does not mention the Haus and SoLA story expansions, so expect the base game unless the PlayStation Store listing says otherwise on November 3. Our guide on whether Dead Island 2 is worth playing covers the editions, the DLC and who the game suits.

Tomb Raider IV-VI Remastered: the Darkness Trilogy

Released by Aspyr and Crystal Dynamics in February 2025, this collection bundles three of Lara Croft's darkest adventures: Tomb Raider: The Last Revelation, Tomb Raider: Chronicles and Tomb Raider: The Angel of Darkness. The first two originally came out on the original PlayStation, while The Angel of Darkness arrived on PS2.

The headline feature is the ability to swap between the original polygon models and the remastered visuals at the press of a button. The timing is fitting: the series has just celebrated its 30th anniversary, and a new entry, Legacy of Atlantis, is on the way. If you want to know where these games sit in Lara's story, our Tomb Raider games in order guide maps out both the release order and the timeline.

Monster Train 2: a PS5-only pick for deckbuilder fans

The third game is the sequel to one of the most popular deckbuilding roguelites of the last decade. Developed by Shiny Shoe and published by Big Fan Games in 2025, Monster Train 2 puts you in charge of clans of former angels and demons who must stop the Titans that have seized Heaven.

Runs take your train through Hell, Heaven and the Abyss, and every battle is fought across three vertical floors that you defend with units and spells. The sequel adds five new clans, new units and upgradable cards. It is single-player only, and on PS Plus it is available for PS5, with no PS4 version in the offer.

Last chance to claim October's PS Plus games

Before the switch, make sure you have claimed the October lineup: F1 25, Hunt: Showdown 1896 and Earth Defense Force: World Brothers 2. Sony says members can add them to their library until Monday, November 2. You do not need to download them now; adding them to your library is enough to keep access while you remain subscribed.

What the November lineup means for PS Plus members

November is not built around a single blockbuster, but it covers three very different kinds of players. Dead Island 2 is the obvious choice for groups of friends looking for something to play together, Tomb Raider IV-VI Remastered appeals to long-time fans and to anyone curious about Lara's PS1 and PS2 era, and Monster Train 2 can easily eat dozens of hours for strategy fans.

The games become claimable on Tuesday, November 3. The December lineup should follow on Tuesday, December 1, with Sony usually revealing it in the last days of the previous month. We will cover it as soon as it is official.
