PS Plus Essential March 2026: Games Lineup Revealed & Polls Open!

PlayStation Plus members will have access to four new games starting March 3, Sony Interactive Entertainment announced Tuesday. The lineup includes PGA Tour 2K25, Monster Hunter Rise, Slime Rancher 2, and The Elder Scrolls Online Collection: Gold Road, and will be available to subscribers until April 6.

PGA Tour 2K25, developed by 2K Sports, allows players to compete in major golf championships, including The PGA Championship, The U.S. Open, and The Open Championship, for the first time in the series. The game features an expanded MyCareer mode with enhanced customization options and course design tools, as well as cross-platform multiplayer.

Capcom’s Monster Hunter Rise will be available on both PlayStation 5 and PlayStation 4. The action role-playing game is set in a world inspired by Japanese folklore and features 14 unique weapon types, customizable hunters, and companion animals, including Palico and Palamute. Players can hunt solo or cooperatively with up to four players.

Slime Rancher 2, a sequel developed by Monomi Park, continues the story of Beatrix LeBeau as she explores Rainbow Island, collecting and raising slimes. The game blends farming mechanics with first-person exploration.

The Elder Scrolls Online Collection: Gold Road, from Zenimax Online Studios, offers access to all major zones and quest arcs within the massively multiplayer online game. The Elder Scrolls Online is set in the same universe as the popular single-player RPG series, The Elder Scrolls, taking place nearly 1,000 years before the events of Skyrim.

The announcement confirms a leak from earlier this week regarding the March PlayStation Plus game selection, according to IGN.
