PlayStation Plus subscribers have just days left to play Grand Theft Auto V and Red Dead Redemption 2 before both titles leave the service on Tuesday.
Sony Removes Twelve Games From the Library
Sony is removing a total of 12 games from the PlayStation Plus Extra and Premium library. Among them are Rockstar Games’ open-world titles. Sony told PS5 owners that GTA V will leave the service on November 17, arriving two days before GTA VI launches on November 19.
Grand Theft Auto V is the second best-selling game of all time. Roughly 230 million people worldwide own a copy of it. Players who do not own it face a final opportunity to play it on the platform without buying it.
Red Dead Redemption 2 is also departing the service. Reporting by ScreenRant called November 17 “a very dark day for PlayStation Plus gamers.” Subscribers have just over a week to finish missions in Los Santos or explore the Wild West.
Other departures on the same date include Cricket 24 and The Talos Principle 2.
GTA+ Members Keep Playing GTA 5
Standard PlayStation Plus subscribers lose access to GTA V when it leaves the catalog. Players who pre-ordered GTA VI maintain an alternative route to keep playing. Pre-orders for the Standard or Ultimate edition of GTA VI include a one-month free membership to GTA+, Rockstar subscription service. Once activated, the GTA+ membership auto-renews a month later. Users must cancel it manually to avoid unexpected bank charges.
