PlayStation confirmed the February 2026 lineup during its recent State of Play presentation, highlighting key releases joining the PlayStation Plus Game Catalog for Extra and Premium members.
State of Play: PlayStation Plus Adds Major Titles in February 2026
PlayStation used its recent State of Play highlight upcoming releases, but it also confirmed new additions to the PlayStation Plus Game Catalog.
Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 Joins PS Plus
One of the biggest announcements is that Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 will arrive on February 17, 2026 for PlayStation Plus Extra and Premium members.
Originally released in 2023 by Insomniac Games, the sequel expanded the formula with both Peter Parker and Miles Morales playable, new villains including Kraven the Hunter and Venom, and upgraded visuals that remain among the PS5’s best.
For subscribers who missed it at launch, this is a major addition to the service.
PlayStation Classics Expanding
Premium members are also getting classic titles throughout 2026:
- Tekken Dark Resurrection – March 2026
- Time Crisis – May 2026
Notably, Time Crisis will feature updated gyroscopic aiming support using DualSense controllers, recreating the arcade light gun experience.
Day-One Release for All PS Plus Tiers
PlayStation also confirmed that Big Walk, a cooperative multiplayer adventure, will launch directly into PlayStation Plus across Essential, Extra, and Premium tiers in 2026.
That means every subscriber (regardless of tier) will get access at release.
February Monthly PS Plus Games
All PS Plus subscribers can also claim these titles through March 2:
- Undisputed
- Subnautica: Below Zero
- Ultros
- Ace Combat 7: Skies Unknown
PC Gamers Get Free Games on Epic Games Store
