Three essential-tier games arrive on PlayStation Plus from November 3 to 30, 2026: Dead Island 2, Tomb Raider IV-VI Remastered, and Monster Train 2.
Dead Island 2 and the Tomb Raider collection run on PS5 and PS4. Monster Train 2 stays exclusive to PS5.
Claimed games stay playable for as long as the subscription remains active, separate from the claim window itself.
Sony has announced the PlayStation Plus games for November 2026, bringing together three titles across action, adventure, and strategy. Dead Island 2, Tomb Raider IV-VI Remastered, and Monster Train 2 will be available to claim from November 3 through November 30.
Dead Island 2 leads the pack. Set in a zombie-infested Los Angeles nicknamed HELL-A, the game mixes story missions, exploration, and close-range combat. Players visit familiar city landmarks, meet eccentric survivors, and fight through infected crowds using a wide range of weapons.
The campaign can be played solo or with up to three other players in online co-op, giving players room to switch between a quiet playthrough and a group session.
Next to it is Tomb Raider IV-VI Remastered, which includes three classics – The Last Revelation, Chronicles, and The Angel of Darkness. Players can switch between classic polygon graphics and updated graphics at any time they want.
The graphics toggle lets longtime fans enjoy the original visuals while newcomers can experience the updated graphics. Each game has its own plot, location, and puzzles. Therefore, there are three different games in one package.
Finally, Monster Train 2, which will remain exclusive for PlayStation 5 only. It is a single-player strategy game in which players create their own card decks, hire units and defend the train from enemies. The plot of the game is about an unusual cooperation of angels and demons who face Titans who have conquered Heaven.
Five new clans offer different strengths, while the train's three levels require players to plan where they place their units. Players must also upgrade cards and build strategies that can handle different enemies.
| Game | Genre | Platforms | Commitment |
|---|---|---|---|
| Dead Island 2 | Action RPG | PS5, PS4 | Single-story-driven campaign |
| Tomb Raider IV-VI Remastered | Adventure collection | PS5, PS4 | Three separate adventures |
| Monster Train 2 | Deckbuilding strategy | PS5 only | Repeated runs with changing outcomes |
PS4 owners can claim Dead Island 2 and Tomb Raider IV-VI Remastered. Monster Train 2 is available only on PS5, so players need that console to access the complete lineup.
All three titles go live on November 3, 2026, and remain claimable through November 30. Once claimed, a game stays accessible for as long as the PlayStation Plus membership stays active. The deadline only controls when a title must be added to the library, not when access ends afterwards.
PlayStation Plus Essential members still have a short window left for October's picks. F1 25, Hunt: Showdown 1896, and Earth Defense Force: World Brothers 2 can be claimed until November 2, a single day before the new lineup takes over.

October leaned on racing and cooperative combat. November moves toward zombie action, classic adventure, and card-based strategy instead. November's lineup covers three different ways to play.
Dead Island 2 centres on real-time combat and exploration, while Tomb Raider IV-VI Remastered focuses on navigating environments and solving puzzles.
Monster Train 2 offers a more tactical experience, with decisions about cards and unit placement shaping each run. This variety lets subscribers choose a game based on the type of challenge they prefer.
