PlayStation Plus has revealed its January 2026 Monthly Games lineup, offering a mix of high-speed racing, classic Disney-inspired platforming, and deep sandbox exploration. The new titles will be available to subscribers beginning January 6 and will remain accessible through February 2.
Need for Speed Unbound leads the lineup on PS5, delivering an energetic street racing experience from Criterion Games. The title features separate single-player and multiplayer campaigns, allowing players to climb the ranks of Lakeshore’s racing scene while evading police and customizing cars with a bold visual style.
Disney Epic Mickey Rebrushed arrives on both PS4 and PS5 as a modern remake of the beloved platformer. Players control Mickey Mouse as he explores Wasteland, a world filled with forgotten Disney characters. The game emphasizes player choice, using paint and thinner mechanics to shape environments and outcomes.
Core Keeper rounds out the month on PS4 and PS5 with a cooperative sandbox adventure set in a mysterious underground cavern. Players can mine resources, craft equipment, build bases, and battle powerful enemies while uncovering the secrets of the Core in a dynamically evolving world.
Alongside the January additions, PlayStation Plus members still have time to claim December’s Monthly Games. Titles including Lego Horizon Adventures, Killing Floor 3, The Outlast Trials, Synduality Echo of Ada, and Neon White remain available until January 5.
With a diverse selection across genres, January’s PlayStation Plus lineup aims to start 2026 with something for every type of player.
