PlayStation Plus subscribers deciding what to download next have until November 30 to add November’s three monthly games to their libraries. The selection covers action-horror, classic adventure remasters, and a highly rated deckbuilding roguelite, with two of the releases also supporting PS4.
What changed for PlayStation Plus in November
Sony’s November 2026 monthly lineup is now live for PS Plus Essential, Extra, and Premium members. Dead Island 2, Tomb Raider IV-VI Remastered, and Monster Train 2 have replaced October’s outgoing games: F1 25, Hunt: Showdown 1896, and Earth Defense Force: World Brothers 2. Subscribers have a 27-day claim window, running from November 3 through November 30. Once claimed during that period, the games are added at no extra charge beyond an active membership.
Who can play each game and where
Dead Island 2 and Tomb Raider IV-VI Remastered are available on both PS4 and PS5, making this another relatively friendly month for players still using Sony’s previous-generation system. Monster Train 2 is limited to PS5. Sony previously said PS4 games would begin to be phased out as a major PS Plus benefit from January 2026, but November’s selection shows that PS4 support has not disappeared entirely. All three titles are available across every current PS Plus tier rather than being restricted to Extra or Premium.
What to prioritize before the claim deadline
Monster Train 2 is the strongest critical performer in the batch, with an 88 OpenCritic average and a 4.75-star PlayStation Store user score as of November 3. It is a deckbuilding roguelite and may be the best starting point for players seeking deep repeatable runs. Dead Island 2 is the broader-audience option: its three-player online co-op campaign, weapon selection, and detailed injury system make it a practical pick for groups. Tomb Raider IV-VI Remastered completes a notable run for the service, following Tomb Raider I-III Remastered’s appearance in April.
What players should know
- Claim all three games by November 30, 2026; the monthly lineup is not available indefinitely.
- Dead Island 2 and Tomb Raider IV-VI Remastered support both PS4 and PS5, while Monster Train 2 is PS5-only.
- Dead Island 2 is the only multiplayer title in the lineup and supports online co-op for up to three players.
- The three games have a combined full retail value of $96.97, below October’s reported $149.97 total.
PS Plus monthly games for November 2026
| Game | Platforms | Availability |

| Dead Island 2 | PS4, PS5 | November 3-30, 2026 |

| Monster Train 2 | PS5 | November 3-30, 2026 |
Expert View
This is a solid, if less valuable on paper, monthly package than October’s. Monster Train 2 provides the standout critical option, while Dead Island 2 adds a substantial co-op game for players who want something social. The continued PS4 availability is also meaningful, though PS5 owners receive the only platform-exclusive entry. Claiming the full set is the sensible move before the November 30 deadline.
