Sony's PlayStation Plus lineup for January 2026 features three games—Need for Speed Unbound, Disney Epic Mickey: Rebrushed, and Core Keeper—available from January 6 for Essential, Extra, and Premium subscribers. This slimmer selection follows December 2025's five-game offering.
Announced December 31 as part of the ongoing monthly rotation, these titles join subscribers' libraries permanently while active. December's games (including Lego Horizon Adventures and Neon White) phase out January 5.
The January selections include:
- Need for Speed Unbound (PS5): The 2022 entry (25th in the series) brings cel-shaded street racing, weekly challenges, and police chases in a stylish package.
- Disney Epic Mickey: Rebrushed (PS4, PS5): 2024 remaster of the 2010 Warren Spector-directed platformer, refreshing the Disney adventure for modern players.
- Core Keeper (PS4, PS5): Pixel-art survival crafter blending Minecraft mining/exploration with Stardew Valley vibes; supports solo/multiplayer and boasts ongoing free updates, like the upcoming Void & Voltage expansion later this month.
Solid picks overall, with Core Keeper shining due to active development, though less buzzworthy than prior months.
