Explained simply
PlayStation Plus is Sony’s subscription service for PlayStation consoles. Its Extra tier includes a changing catalogue of games that members can download and play while they have a subscription; Premium includes that catalogue as well as access to selected older games.
Sony adds games to the catalogue on set dates, and availability can vary by country. Helldivers 2 is a team-based action game, while Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 is a historical role-playing game; the wider line-up also includes independent titles and older releases.
These additions matter to subscribers deciding whether the service offers games they want to play. Premium’s classic games also reflect the tier’s focus on older PlayStation-era titles.
