Author : Lillian Mar 21,2025

In June 2022, Sony launched its revamped PlayStation Plus service. This three-tiered subscription offers access to a vast library of games spanning PlayStation's history, including titles from the PS1 and PSP eras. Showcasing a diverse range of genres—from horror and platformers to RPGs and strategy games—PlayStation Plus also boasts a strong selection of open-world titles. Whether you crave PlayStation exclusives or acclaimed third-party hits, PS Plus Extra and Premium cater to a wide variety of tastes. With such an extensive catalog, choosing where to begin can be daunting, especially when focusing on open-world adventures. Fortunately, PlayStation Plus provides a substantial collection in this genre, encompassing everything from first-person shooters to survival and role-playing games. Let's explore some of the best open-world games currently available through PlayStation Plus.

Note that while all mentioned open-world games are included in the PS Plus Premium tier, some may not be available in the Extra tier. Furthermore, this list isn't strictly ranked by quality, and newer additions are highlighted first.
