The Best Star Wars Game in Years Comes to PlayStation Plus

Sony Interactive Entertainment has officially unveiled the latest additions arriving in the PlayStation Plus Game Catalog for May 2026. If you are searching for an expansive open-world experience to sink your teeth into, this month’s update offers a compelling selection. Starting May 19, Premium and Extra subscribers can access several standout titles, including one of the most celebrated entries in the Star Wars franchise, the monumental Red Dead Redemption 2, and the action-packed Flintlock: The Siege of Dawn.

Star Wars Outlaws serves as an immersive, sprawling adventure that expertly translates the classic Ubisoft open-world blueprint into the galaxy far, far away. Players step into the boots of Kay Vess, a desperate scoundrel attempting to navigate the criminal underworld after a heist goes sideways. Her journey involves taking on high-stakes contracts for various syndicates, a dangerous path that frequently puts her directly in the crosshairs of the Empire. While the galaxy’s underbelly is notoriously unforgiving, players can always take a breather to master Sabacc, the series’ iconic card game. Though it faced a mixed reception upon release, a series of essential updates has since solidified Star Wars Outlaws as a premier title in the Star Wars gaming canon.

Beyond these highlights, the May update brings several other notable titles to the service, including the welcome return of Rockstar Games’ masterpiece, Red Dead Redemption 2.

Here is the complete list of games joining the PlayStation Plus Game Catalog in May 2026:

• Star Wars Outlaws (PS5)
• Red Dead Redemption 2 (PS4)
