For PS Plus members, there’s a lot to look forward to in June 2025! The upcoming Extra and Premium games are set to be unveiled soon, with Extra subscribers getting the exclusive day-one release of FBC Firebreak on June 17th. Additionally, keep an eye out for another exciting day-one release that Shuhei Yoshida, former president of Sony Interactive Entertainment, has teased as his favorite game of Summer Game Fest.
Former PlayStation President hails upcoming PS Plus day-one release
Shuhei Yoshida served as President of Sony Interactive Entertainment from 2008 to 2019, earning him admiration and adoration from PlayStation enthusiasts worldwide. His enthusiasm for video games is evident, and his insights are highly regarded within the gaming community.
Earlier, Shuhei Yoshida hinted that Blue Prince, released through PS Plus, would be a strong contender for Game of the Year. Indeed, it appears he was correct in terms of quality as it currently holds the second highest Metacritic score of the year at 92, just behind Clair Obscur Expedition 33 with a 93 rating.
Shuhei Yoshida, a former president of Sony Interactive Entertainment, has praised another upcoming game set to launch on PS Plus Extra simultaneously with its debut. He’s been participating in Summer Game Fest 2025 Play Days and recently shared on X that Sword of the Sea is his top pick among games.
My preferred game during SGF Play Days is The Sword of the Sea, which I love! ❤️ @Matt_Nava @tkowalewski @GiantSquidology @awintory

On August 19th, I’m excited to share that I’ll be diving into the enchanting world of Sword of the Sea, which is joining PS Plus Extra! This stunning game hails from the creative minds at Giant Squid, known for crafting the awe-inspiring spiritual journeys in Abzu and The Pathless. Similar to these masterpieces, I’ll find myself exploring breathtaking landscapes filled with deserts and oceans as I work to revive a lost sea. Can’t wait to set sail on this adventure!
As a gaming enthusiast, I’m beyond thrilled about Shuhei Yoshida’s positive remarks on an upcoming game – it’s got me buzzing with anticipation! Mark your calendars for June 17th, because Deus Ex PS2 is landing on PS Plus Premium. And that’s not all, Twisted Metal 3 and 4 will join the lineup in July. To top it off, Resident Evil 2 and 3 from the good old PS1 days are expected to make an appearance later in the summer, which I’m guessing means around August.
In other updates for the PlayStation, a reliable source indicates that a version of Halo for the PS5 has apparently been incorporated into the API being monitored by 343 Industries.
