Sony has confirmed the PlayStation Plus monthly games for June 2026 \u2014 and it includes one of the best Warhammer 40,000 games around.<\/p>\n

Warhammer 40,000: Darktide<\/a> joins the subscription service alongside Microsoft’s own Game Pass game, Grounded Fully Yoked Edition, and Nickelodeon All-Star Brawl 2, with all three available to all PlayStation Plus members from Tuesday, June 2 until Monday, July 6. As a bonus, EA Sports FC 26 will remain available as a PlayStation Plus Monthly Game until June 16, capitalizing on the start of the World Cup.<\/p>\n

But as a big Warhammer 40,000 fan, I\u2019ll focus here on Darktide, Fatshark\u2019s co-op focused first-person action game set in Games Workshop\u2019s grimdark galaxy of the far future. While Darktide got off to a rough start when it came out on PC in 2022, it is now in great shape, and continues to receive meaningful updates. In fact, its arrival in PlayStation Plus is well-timed, given it gets the new Skitarii class on June 23.<\/p>\n

The thing to note about Darktide is it does not let you play as a Space Marine, Warhammer 40,000\u2019s famous genetically enhanced super soldiers. Instead, you pick a class lifted from other factions within the setting. The aforementioned Skitarii, for example, is from the Adeptus Mechanicus (tech priest) faction. You can even play as an Ogryn, an enormous abhuman from the Astra Militarum (Imperial Guard) faction.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s worth noting that this is the first PlayStation Plus lineup announcement since Sony hiked the price of the subscription service<\/a>, sparking a backlash among customers. Here are the new prices for new customers:<\/p>\n
