2026 is finally almost here and PS Plus is making some pretty substantial changes to how it will work as we move the second half of this decade. Nothing drastic is changing but if you have a PS4, you may want to cancel your subscription.<\/p>\n
Yes, PS4 games are completely going away, so you will only get PS5 games or PS5 versions of games unless the PS4 copy is included.\u00a0 Here is what to expect from the PS Plus January 2026 games and when they will be announced:<\/p>\n
