PS Plus July 2026 Lineup Revealed: Call of Duty Modern Warfare 3 Leads the Charge

A Powerhouse Month for PlayStation Plus Subscribers

PlayStation has officially unveiled the monthly game lineup for July 2026, and it is delivering a heavy hitter for fans of first-person shooters. Amidst a period of relative silence from the company—following a wave of controversy regarding their rumored plan to phase out physical media by January 2028—the gaming giant is shifting focus back to its subscription value. This month, PS Plus members across all tiers (Essential, Extra, and Premium) can dive into a diverse selection of titles, ranging from AAA blockbusters to acclaimed indie gems.

The Main Attraction: Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3

The headline act for July 2026 is undoubtedly Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3. Developed by Sledgehammer Games and released in 2023, this title represents one of the biggest licenses in the entertainment industry. While the game faced a polarizing reception upon its initial launch, its inclusion in PS Plus provides a perfect entry point for players to experience the campaign and multiplayer modes without the full retail cost.

With the anticipation building for the upcoming Modern Warfare 4, adding MW3 to the library now is a strategic move for players looking to sharpen their skills and get caught up on the narrative before the next generation of warfare arrives. The title is available for both PlayStation 4 and PlayStation 5 users, ensuring a wide reach across the console ecosystem.

Exploring the Indie Gems: For the King 2 and CrossCode

Beyond the chaos of the battlefield, PlayStation is offering two highly regarded titles that cater to strategy and RPG enthusiasts:

• For the King 2: Developed by IronOak Games, this tactical RPG sequel brings a blend of turn-based combat and exploration. Players must navigate a treacherous world, managing their party and making critical decisions to save the realm.
• CrossCode: A stunning action-RPG from Radical Fish Games. Known for its complex puzzles, fast-paced combat, and deep storytelling, CrossCode offers a refreshing departure from the typical AAA experience, focusing on agility and intellectual challenge.

Important Dates and Deadlines

The window to claim these titles is limited. Subscribers have until August 4, 2026, to add these games to their library. Once claimed, the games remain playable as long as the user maintains an active PS Plus subscription.

Additionally, a final reminder for those who missed out on previous offerings: the June 2026 games will be replaced around 11:00 AM (French time), marking the definitive transition to the July catalog. Don't let those titles slip away before the new rotation begins.
