Sony has officially announced the PlayStation Plus Essential lineup for November 2025, and it’s shaping up to be one of the most balanced and entertaining months of the year. Starting November 4 through December 1, subscribers can grab three exciting titles — Stray, EA Sports WRC 24, and Totally Accurate Battle Simulator (TABS) — all available at no extra cost for PlayStation 4 and PlayStation 5 users.
🐾 Stray (PS4 & PS5) – Explore the Cyber City as a Lost Cat
The award-winning indie adventure Stray finally makes its way to PS Plus Essential, allowing millions more players to experience one of the most charming titles in recent years.
You play as a curious orange cat exploring a mysterious, neon-lit city inhabited entirely by robots. With a mix of platforming, environmental puzzles, and heartfelt storytelling, Stray is a short but unforgettable journey that proves you don’t need words to tell a powerful story.
Whether you missed it when it launched or want to replay it on PS5 with its silky-smooth performance, Stray is the clear highlight this month.
🏁 EA Sports WRC 24 (PS5) – The Ultimate Rally Experience
For racing fans, EA Sports WRC 24 offers pure adrenaline. Built using the Unreal Engine, it delivers the most authentic rally experience ever on PlayStation.
Race across real-world tracks, handle unpredictable weather, and push your car to the limit in a championship officially licensed by the FIA World Rally Championship. With improved physics, deeper career modes, and next-gen visuals, this PS5-exclusive title gives you the full rally driver fantasy from the comfort of your couch.
If you own a PS5 and crave some high-speed excitement, WRC 24 is a must-add to your library.
🤪 Totally Accurate Battle Simulator (TABS) – Chaos Meets Comedy
Rounding out November’s lineup is Totally Accurate Battle Simulator, a physics-driven strategy game where you create ridiculous armies and watch chaos unfold. From Viking warriors to laser-firing sci-fi troops, TABS combines ragdoll physics with endless laughter and unpredictable outcomes.
It’s the kind of game that’s easy to pick up, perfect for parties, and surprisingly deep once you start experimenting with unit combinations. Both PS4 and PS5 players can enjoy it, making it a great addition to any library.
