June PS Plus: Final Fantasy XVI, Sonic X, Kingdom Come & More

This month, the PlayStation Plus Game Catalog invites players to immerse themselves in a variety of fresh adventures: traverse the once-thriving yet now blighted realm of Valisthea in Final Fantasy XVI, sprint through the shadowy history of the legendary “Ultimate Lifeform” in Sonic X Shadow Generations, rise from a modest blacksmith’s forge to become a hero in medieval Bohemia with Kingdom Come: Deliverance, or navigate dual realities while hunting suspects in Life is Strange: Double Exposure. All of these titles, among others, are part of June’s lineup, and the rhythm classic Gitaroo Man joins the PlayStation Plus Premium roster.

PlayStation is testing new distribution methods for its Game Catalog in selected markets, meaning release dates will vary across the US, UK, and Japan. The complete catalog will launch worldwide on June 16.

With its 16th entry, Final Fantasy XVI takes the franchise into darker territory, weaving a complex narrative of vengeance, political intrigue, and inevitable tragedy. Players assume the role of Clive Rosfield, the First Shield of Rosaria and protector of his younger brother Joshua, the Dominant of the Eikon Phoenix. In this fully realized action‑RPG, you’ll explore the diverse landscapes of Valisthea and harness spectacular Eikonic powers to vanquish formidable foes.

When the ancient adversary Black Doom resurfaces, threatening global domination, Shadow must delve into his past, confront painful memories, and unlock new abilities to safeguard the world and affirm his title as the Ultimate Lifeform. The full campaign offers a deep dive into Shadow’s backstory, pitting him against familiar foes while revealing the stakes of his destiny. Additionally, Sonic X Shadow Generations includes a comprehensive remaster of the beloved Sonic Generations, featuring newly polished 2D and 3D stages, enhanced visuals, and bonus content.

Sonic X Shadow Generations launches today—June 10 in the United States and United Kingdom, and June 11 in Japan—bringing the beloved platformer’s latest adventure to eager fans worldwide.

Re‑experience Henry’s journey from the very beginning in Kingdom Come: Deliverance, the narrative‑rich open‑world RPG set against the backdrop of medieval Bohemia. As the son of a blacksmith, Henry is thrust into a devastating civil war that decimates his family and village. After narrowly surviving the onslaught, he wields his sword to seek vengeance, confront invading forces, embark on pivotal quests, and make consequential decisions that reverberate throughout the game’s world.

The PlayStation 5 edition of Kingdom Come: Deliverance now boasts significant graphical enhancements, including 4K resolution, smoother frame rates, high‑definition textures, and additional visual polish—transforming medieval Bohemia into an even more breathtaking experience.

Mark your calendars: Kingdom Come: Deliverance will hit shelves on June 23 across the United States, United Kingdom, and Japan.

Embark on a fresh chapter in the Life is Strange saga, starring Max Caulfield, the original protagonist. As a photographer at the esteemed Caledon University, Max discovers her new best friend Safi lying dead in the snow—victim of a murder. To rescue her, Max attempts to rewind time—a power she’s not used in years—only to unlock a parallel reality where Safi remains alive but still in peril. Navigate allies, investigate suspects across twin timelines, and shape both realities through unforgettable choices.

Life is Strange: Double Exposure will launch on June 23 for players in the United States, the United Kingdom, and Japan.

Farming Simulator 25 invites you to shape your own legacy—whether solo or with friends. The latest installment expands the series with rice cultivation, spinach, and a host of new crops, while introducing fresh locales across East Asia, North America, and Central Europe. Players can grow their farm empire further by adding new livestock, establishing production chains, tackling construction missions, and operating over 400 authentic machines from 150 leading agricultural brands. Enhanced graphics and physics deliver a more immersive, atmospheric, and soothing virtual farming experience.

You assume the role of Aran de Lira, the final warrior capable of forging true steel in a realm where metal turns to stone. The narrative centers on crafting weapons through intent, sacrifice, and consequence rather than mere collection. Combat demands precision and endurance: each strike is final, and every error is costly. Mastery comes from patience, strategic positioning, and a deep understanding of both foe and blade. Weapons are forged at the anvil, with choices that permanently influence their behavior, balance, and purpose.

In Black Desert, the open‑world MMORPG by Pearl Abyss, players confront global threats or challenge peers in PvP. From the scorching heat of desert metropolises to the tranquil serenity of hidden forest enclaves, the game offers a compelling storyline that follows your every step. Command your guild to triumph in battles, earning renown and wealth. With breathtaking combat, siege warfare, exploration, and diverse life‑skill activities—such as trade, fishing, horse training, alchemy, cooking, and gathering—players can pursue the adventure they’ve always desired.

The iconic PlayStation 2 rhythm title is finally making its way to modern consoles, bringing its electrifying music battles to the PS4 and PS5 for the first time.

Players will guide the spirited protagonist U‑1 as he transforms from a novice to a legend, wielding the legendary Gitaroo—a guitar that doubles as a powerful musical weapon capable of vanquishing foes with sonic force.

With each beat, players must press, pitch, and play in sync to overcome enemies, gradually building confidence and skill as they progress through the story.

Immerse yourself in the game’s distinctive, heartwarming atmosphere, groove to its classic soundtrack, and revel in the vibrant, iconic artwork crafted by renowned Japanese illustrator 326.
