2 Upcoming PS Plus Extra, Premium Games Announced Early

Two upcoming PlayStation Plus Extra and Premium tier games have been announced ahead of schedule. According to GAMINGbible, the Japanese PlayStation Blog seemingly confirmed the inclusion of two major titles a tad early, as spotted by Reddit user d0pplerRL. The blog stated that the PlayStation Plus Game Catalog will be adding Square Enix’s Dragon Quest III: The Seeds of Salvation this November, and Koei Tecmo Games’ Dynasty Warriors Origins in December.

GAMINGbible noted a couple of important details regarding the early leak. Because the original 1988 version of Dragon Quest III: The Seeds of Salvation is not playable on PlayStation, the post is likely referencing 2024’s Dragon Quest III HD-2D remake, especially since the PlayStation Blog appears to use the remake’s key art. Additionally, while the Japanese PlayStation Plus line-up occasionally differs from Europe and North America when games are unavailable in specific territories, both titles are readily available in those regions. GAMINGbible reported that it is still safer to await the full line-up reveals.

Alongside these early leaks, subscribers can currently download and claim November’s essential tier line-up. According to GAMINGbible, this current essential tier comprises Dead Island 2, Tomb Raider IV - VI Remastered, and Monster Train 2. TwistedVoxel and Push Square further confirmed that Dragon Quest III HD-2D Remake and Dynasty Warriors: Origins are coming to the PlayStation Plus Game Catalog.

Both leaked games earned high praise in previous reviews. GAMINGbible awarded Dynasty Warriors Origins a score of eight out of ten upon its release last year. The hack and slash RPG features enormous battles and is able to render up to 10,000 enemies in vast scale skirmishes. GAMINGbible described Dynasty Warriors Origins as a fantastic starting point for newcomers, praising its concise and endlessly entertaining gameplay. Meanwhile, Dragon Quest III HD-2D also secured a score of eight from GAMINGbible. The outlet called it a faithful recreation that fixes the creakier aspects of a nearly forty-year-old game while keeping the original spirit intact, noting it serves as the chronological starting point for the franchise before Dragon Quest I and II.

Sony is scheduled to officially confirm the PlayStation Plus November extra and premium tier games in just a few days, with the new line-up due to be revealed on November 11. This announcement is expected to bring clarity regarding Dragon Quest III HD-2D’s inclusion, while fans will have to wait a couple of weeks to see what December brings for Dynasty Warriors Origins.
