Sony has announced November’s PlayStation Plus catalogue additions, with Death Stranding 2: On the Beach leading a lineup that also includes Like a Dragon: Pirate Yakuza in Hawaii, Atomfall and Dragon Quest III HD-2D Remake. That is a fairly convincing argument for postponing whatever sensible thing you had planned for the rest of the month.

The detail worth checking before clearing space is the UK timetable. Sony’s headline date is 17 November, but Hell Let Loose joins today, 11 November, while Pirate Yakuza, Trepang2, MotoGP 26 and Cricket 26 arrive here on 24 November.

Death Stranding 2 is the PS5 headliner, while Atomfall gives PS4 players something substantial to investigate as well. Between those and Dragon Quest III, deciding what to start could become its own evening’s entertainment before anyone actually presses Play.

Below is the full UK schedule from Sony’s announcement. The tier column also separates the Extra catalogue additions from the two Premium-only arrivals, because subscription menus already provide quite enough opportunities to get muddled.

Premium members also get Soul Reaver 2 and Freedom Wars Remastered, both listed for PS5 and PS4. Raziel’s return gives this month a welcome dose of gloomy ruins, which should make a pleasant change from staring out at the actual November weather.

These are the Game Catalogue and Premium additions, so check the tier attached to each entry before making plans. Sony also notes that lineups can vary by region and recommends checking the PlayStation Store on release day.

There was another announcement tucked into the same update: the PlayStation Plus PC streaming app closes on 10 December. We have covered that separately, while this is the list to keep handy when deciding what to download next.
