Summary

• PS Plus Premium subscribers will have 12 new games to check out on Tuesday, March 18.
• This is because Premium subscribers have access to all new PS Plus additions, regardless of tier.
• 10 games will also be leaving PS Plus Extra/Premium that same day.

Tuesday, March 18 is going to be an especially busy day for the Premium tier of PlayStation Plus because that's the day subscribers will have access to 12 new games while simultaneously having to say goodbye to 10 titles. Sony updates its PlayStation Plus lineup a couple of times a month, with the first shake-up always happening on the first Tuesday.

The first Tuesday of each month is when Sony updates the free PS Plus games available to Essential tier subscribers. The free PS Plus games for March 2025 are Dragon Age: The Veilguard, Sonic Colors: Ultimate, and Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: The Cowabunga Collection. The March 2025 free PS Plus games seem to be the best-received of the year so far, with many fans shocked to see the newest Dragon Age added to PS Plus so soon after its launch. Sonic Colors: Ultimate is one of the best 3D Sonic games, so its inclusion is also very much appreciated, while TMNT: The Cowabunga Collection gives subscribers access to classic Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles games from the arcades, 8-bit and 16-bit consoles, and classic handhelds.

PS Plus Premium subscribers get access to everything that's added to PlayStation Plus across all tiers, so that means they can already claim the free Essential games. On March 18, Premium subscribers will also be able to check out the new games added to the Extra and Premium tiers. The new PS Plus Extra games for March 2025 are Arcade Paradise, Bang-On Balls: Chronicles, Captain Tsubasa: Rise of New Champions, Mobile Suit Gundam: Battle Operation - Code Fairy, Prince of Persia: The Lost Crown, Syberia: The World Before, UFC 5 (for PS5 gamers only), and You Suck at Parking.
