PS5 PlayStation Plus Essential Games: The Complete Collection
Since PlayStation Plus first debuted on the PlayStation 3, many things have changed – most notably that you no longer get Plus games for the PS3. Now with PS Plus coming to PS5, however, we can look forward to an entire swathe of “free” games that come included with any subscription – whether Essential, Premium or Extra.

How Long Can I Keep These PlayStation Plus Games?
Playing PlayStation 5 games remains available as long as you are an active Plus subscriber, which is kind of a requirement if using the console to play online games. Your games will remain locked if you cancel your subscription but can be picked up where you left off if reactivate at any time.
Sony have not indicated a timeline for the PlayStation Plus Collection, suggesting it will remain an ongoing option for subscribers to Plus.
