What's Happening?
Sony's PS Plus Extra service is set to remove seven games from its catalog, including popular titles like 'Battlefield 5' and 'Like a Dragon: Ishin.' While the exact date of removal has not been specified, it typically aligns with the next service refresh.
PS Plus Extra differs from PS Plus Essential in that games are only available while they remain in the catalog, meaning subscribers will lose access to these titles once they are removed. This rotation strategy is intended to keep the library fresh for subscribers.
Why It's Important?
The removal of games from PS Plus Extra highlights the dynamic nature of subscription-based gaming services, where content availability is subject to change. This approach allows Sony to refresh its offerings and maintain subscriber interest, but it also means that players have limited time to enjoy certain games. The decision to remove popular titles like 'Battlefield 5' may impact subscriber satisfaction and influence future subscription decisions.
