Just like every month, new games are added PlayStation Plus As subscriptions are added, some games also regularly leave the lineup. Users criticize Sony on this point and demand a change.

While the games of PlayStation Plus Level Essential While updates are scheduled to be replaced with the monthly update, the situation is somewhat different for the Extra and Premium tiers. Here, the announcement often comes unexpectedly and is far too brief.

Users lack planning certainty.

This is currently demonstrated by the example GreedFall Spider Studios, which is leaving the PlayStation Plus Extra and Premium lineup this November, is leaving the game. Many players feel this announcement came far too late, as barely two weeks is hardly enough time for a 50+ hour RPG.

Here it says in Reddit forum:

"Announcing two weeks in advance that SOMA is leaving PS+ Extra might be fine, but 12 days for an RPG like GreedFall is simply unacceptable. For most players, there's absolutely no way to play a 50-75 hour RPG in less than two weeks. This isn't about FOMO. I have a short list of 30 games I want to play in the Extra catalog, but it's simply impossible to prioritize one over another when we find out about end dates this way."

Normally, the expiry date for every PlayStation Plus game should be listed directly in the PlayStation Store, which is the case with... GreedFall Unfortunately, it didn't work out. Furthermore, Sony's announcement of the games' cancellation so abruptly is considered completely inappropriate.

“Two weeks is not only far too short, but the way it’s being announced is completely ridiculous: Sony should announce both the removal and the addition of games. It’s not right that you have to hang around on Reddit every day and be lucky enough to stumble across a post from someone who saw the notification on the game’s page to be informed. Sony has a great catalog, but it’s being managed terribly.”

It's currently difficult to say whether Sony will make any changes. For many players, the new PlayStation Plus is somewhat chaotic and its implementation is incomprehensible, as it appears to be based on pure arbitrariness in some aspects. as recently reported.

I can more than understand the frustration. I was recently annoyed by the availability of Mafia. Transparency is extremely important for customer trust. It also shows that you stand behind your product or service and have nothing to hide.

I don't want to know how many people subscribe to PS Plus Extra or Premium only to find out shortly afterwards that the game they subscribed for is about to leave the catalog.
