PlayStation Plus users aren’t particularly impressed with this month’s lineup of free games, mostly due to the fact that the games we’re losing in return are twice as good as anything we’re gaining.
Great news! Sony just dropped nine free games, alongside the free games we got for June if you’re a PlayStation Plus Essential subscriber!
Terrible news! They’re kinda rubbish, and we’re losing three absolute bangers in the process!
Look, there are some great games in this month’s PlayStation Plus Extra and Premium tiers, but the fact that we’re losing the likes of Crisis Core: Final Fantasy VII Reunion, Dying Light 2: Stay Human, and Remnant 2 in the process just doesn’t seem worth the trade.

And I’m not the only one who thinks so, based on the comments over on a thread in the r/PlayStationPlus subreddit detailing the games that are leaving in July.
“Leaving 3 great game to receive 3 s**t games, fair after a rise in the subscription”, commented user Paanx.
“It keeps happening and they keep raising the prices”, replied user OliveOcelot.
“We're losing inscryption, rogue legacy 2 and monster hunter rise today. All 85+ games.”

Honestly, I feel like a broken record at this point, but the folks over at Sony have clearly lost the plot at some point in the last few months.
Charging more for the service is one thing, but actively making it worse in the process is just baffling. Obviously certain games have to leave once the contracts that put them on PlayStation Plus expire, but Sony isn’t introducing anything better to replace them.
If they’d have increased the price but also increased the quality of the games they add, I could justify it. As it is, however, it just seems like Sony has grown too comfortable and too bigheaded.
I can only hope subscribers wake up and realise how poorly they’re being treated, and vote with their wallets.
