Sony's revamped PlayStation Plus, launched in June 2022, offers a tiered subscription service granting access to a vast library of PlayStation games, spanning various genres and generations, including PS1 and PSP titles. This extensive catalog naturally includes a strong selection of open-world games, catering to diverse tastes from first-person shooters to RPGs and survival experiences. Whether you crave PlayStation exclusives or popular third-party hits, PS Plus Extra and Premium tiers likely have something for you. However, with such a wide array of open-world titles, choosing where to begin can be daunting.
This list highlights some of the best open-world games available through PS Plus, focusing on newer additions first and not strictly ranking them by quality. Note that while all listed games are on PS Plus Premium, availability on the Extra tier may vary.
This list was updated January 13, 2025, to include a noteworthy, albeit divisive, open-world title recently added to PS Plus Essential.
