Sony has revealed three games for PlayStation Plus subscribers to claim in November 2026: Dead Island 2, Tomb Raider 4–6 Remastered and Monster Train 2. The games are due to become available on Tuesday 3 November and can be claimed until 30 November. The reports describe the selection in slightly different ways: one identifies it as the Essential tier’s monthly games, while the other refers to Premium and Extra. Both name the same three titles and start date.
Dead Island 2 is a first-person action game set in a zombie-infested version of Los Angeles. Players fight the undead with close-range weapons and can team up with others in online co-operative play. The first report highlights the game’s graphic combat and a three-player horde mode; the second focuses on its action and loot.
Tomb Raider 4–6 Remastered collects The Last Revelation, Chronicles and The Angel of Darkness, three instalments from Lara Croft’s earlier adventures. The games offer updated visuals alongside their original graphics, with players able to switch between them. The reports agree that the collection revisits a less celebrated period of the series, though the second places more emphasis on the remaster’s polish and the amount of play it offers.
Monster Train 2 is a roguelike deckbuilding game in which players build a team drawn from angels and demons and face the Titans across settings including Heaven, Hell and the Abyss. It also features an Endless Mode with rising difficulty. Both reports present it as the selection’s indie game, while the first gives more detail about its modes and premise.
Where outlets differ
From the full account, which is AI-written from the sources:
The first report says the games are part of the PlayStation Plus Essential monthly selection; the second describes them as coming to Premium and Extra. The supplied accounts do not explain this difference.
The first gives a clear window for claiming the November games and says October’s F1 25, Hunt: Showdown 1896 and Earth Defense Force: World Brothers 2 remain available through 2 November. The second more generally urges readers to claim October’s games before they leave.
The outlets emphasise different details: the first outlines each game’s features and the Essential subscription, while the second offers more opinion on the titles and frames the release as arriving ahead of a busy month for new games.
Explained simply
PlayStation Plus is Sony’s subscription service for PlayStation consoles. Its Essential tier includes a rotating selection of games that subscribers can add to their library during a set period; access generally depends on keeping the subscription active.
The games are made by different studios and offer different styles of play, from action and exploration to card-based strategy. The monthly selection matters to subscribers deciding whether to claim games before they leave the offer, and to players looking for new titles to play.
