Top Persona Title and More Join the PlayStation Plus Game Catalog

Sony Interactive Entertainment has unveiled a stellar collection of high-caliber titles joining the PlayStation Plus Game Catalog this March. Following an impressive February update, the service is set to introduce several definitive gaming experiences. Starting March 17, Extra and Premium subscribers can access a diverse range of titles, including the definitive edition of a genre-defining JRPG and a visceral homage to classic third-person shooters, as detailed in the latest PlayStation Blog update.

Persona 5 Royal serves as the comprehensive expansion of the original 2016 masterpiece. The narrative follows a group of high schoolers who navigate a double life: balancing social obligations by day and exploring a supernatural cognitive realm by night. Renowned for its seamless fusion of life-simulation elements and traditional dungeon crawling, it is frequently cited by critics and major publications as the series’ crowning achievement. Industry experts have praised it as a stylish, content-rich journey that remains one of the most compelling JRPGs of the modern era.

For fans of unrelenting action, Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine 2 offers a nostalgic return to the era of focused, linear shooters. Its campaign is a curated sequence of explosive combat encounters and grand set pieces. Even for those unfamiliar with the sprawling 40K lore, the gameplay provides immense satisfaction through its brutal melee finishers and the sheer scale of the Tyranid hordes. Critics have specifically highlighted the visceral thrill of its execution animations and the sheer fun of dismantling alien armies.

The March update also spotlights Metal Eden, a title widely considered one of 2025’s most overlooked shooters. Here is the comprehensive list of games arriving on the service this month:

• Persona 5 Royal (PS4, PS5)
• Persona 5 Royal – Ultimate Edition (PS4)
• Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine 2 (PS5)
• Metal Eden (PS5)
• Madden NFL 26 (PS5)
• Blasphemous 2 (PS4, PS5)
• The Lord of the Rings: Return to Moria (PS5)

Available to members on the service’s upper tiers, the PlayStation Plus Game Catalog acts as Sony’s premier subscription offering. It provides a vast library of hundreds of downloadable titles for PS4 and PS5, serving as a robust counterpart to services like Xbox Game Pass.
