Top 24 Open-World Games on PS Plus Extra & Premium (Jan 2025)

In June 2022, Sony launched an enhanced version of its PlayStation Plus subscription service, structured into three tiers: Essential, Extra, and Premium. This revamped service grants subscribers access to an extensive library of games spanning PlayStation's rich history, from classics on the PS1 and PSP to modern hits. Catering to a wide array of gaming preferences, PlayStation Plus includes titles across various genres, including horror, platformers, RPGs, and strategy games. Notably, the service also boasts a robust selection of open-world games, appealing to fans of immersive, expansive gaming experiences.

For those seeking PlayStation exclusives or popular third-party titles, PS Plus Extra and Premium tiers are particularly appealing. With such a vast selection, choosing where to begin can be daunting, especially within the open-world genre. PS Plus offers a diverse range of open-world experiences, from first-person shooters to survival and role-playing games, ensuring there's something for every type of gamer. Let's explore some of the best open-world games available through PS Plus.

It's important to note that while all the open-world games discussed are accessible through PS Plus Premium, not all are included in the Extra tier. Additionally, the games are not ranked purely on quality; instead, newer additions to the service are highlighted first to keep you updated on the latest offerings.
