PlayStation Plus subscribers are treated to three free games each month. And after claiming the free games, PlayStation Plus subscribers get to keep them as long as they stay subscribed to the service. The new PS Plus tiers work a bit differently, however.

Sony plans on making the entire Yakuza series playable through PS Plus by the end of 2022, and the three games coming on August 16 will be a big step in that direction. Starting that day, PS Plus Extra and Premium subscribers can play Yakuza 0, Yakuza Kiwami, and Yakuza Kiwami 2 with their subscription. Yakuza Kiwami and Yakuza Kiwami 2 are remakes of the first two Yakuza PS2
