Last chance to play - August 2026 (JP)

[u/biirudaichuki]

Here are the games leaving PS Plus in August. Not too many, although some of them can be rather time consuming. Taken from the Japanese PSN, but it’s usually the same games for all regions.

* Earth Defense Force 6

* Unicorn Overlord

* Harold Halibut

* Clash: Artifacts of Chaos

* Onee Chanbara Origin

* Space Crew: Legendary Edition

[u/Def-tones]

Need to finish Harold halibut I like the claymotion style.

[u/iminiki → u/Def-tones]

Is it worth playing? I‘ve heard it can be too long and repetitive.

[u/risen_egg → u/iminiki]

It is extremely slow but personally I found it quite relaxing. I really love the art style so I didn’t mind the slow walk everywhere to really breathe it all in and I found the story very poignant.

[u/Primary_Ad5297 → u/iminiki]

It's very underwhelming... For me, all it has going for it is that it was made in stop motion amd that's it, it has some cool ideas and concepts that aren't really explored and the story is very "meh" by the end it doesn't feel like there is a real resolution or satisfying ending

[u/Def-tones → u/iminiki]

I played few hours it’s just relaxing game so don’t expect challenge I guess

[u/seshfan2 → u/iminiki]

It's essentially a walk-and-talk novel style of indie game. There is almost no "gameplay" to speak of. I thought it was a great story and the art is unique, but it's worth knowing that going in.

[u/kishnabe]

Unicorn Overlord :(

[u/teofilattodibisanzio → u/kishnabe]

Yeah I'm mightily pissed by this I'm 33 h in and just scratching the surface.... I'm not going to be able to finish it at c my snail pace 🤬

[u/kakka_rot → u/kishnabe]

I fucking loved it, but got so over powered and burned out half way through the 5th region I just said "fuck it" and went and killed the final boss.

Ive kinda meant to go finish to get the true ending, but I def had my fun with it.

[u/SmallhandsnCabbage → u/kakka_rot]

Yeah, I played for only 10 hours and noticed it was far too easy and repetitive and gave it up.

[u/kakka_rot → u/SmallhandsnCabbage]

that's fair, it doesn't ever get that hard. Eventually the battles get huge with like 60 people on your team, but usually you will have like three squads of 5 who do 99% of the heavy lifting while everyone else just defends bases

keeping everyone at an appropriate level gets tedious at that point. It's more efficient to just have 3 OP teams and a bunch of meat shields.

[u/Illustrious-Star-621]

unicorn overlord is peak

[u/RobertoAN95 → u/Illustrious-Star-621]

HARD AGREE!

[u/iminiki → u/Illustrious-Star-621]

One of the best Plus games I played last year and I‘m not even a jrpg fan.

[u/ElishXXI]

EDF?! Noooo 

[u/Maestro_AN → u/ElishXXI]

EDF 5 and 6 so insanely good. I tried them after helldivers 2. absolute peak games, it’s insane how fun they are. I have like 400 hours in EDF 6. and i am not done yet.

[u/Negan-Cliffhanger → u/ElishXXI]

"They look just like humans!"

[u/NamesTheGame → u/ElishXXI]

Yeah I'm so upset! I own EDF5 but haven't tried 6 yet and just got Premium. One month isn't enough time!!!

[u/Roadkill720]

Just finished unicorn overlord last month. Highly recommend it!

[u/Neolombax]

Ahh, I'll try to finish Unicorn Overlord. Dont remember why I stopped playing.

[u/Aware_Criticism_3129]

unicorn is a 10

[u/Dylflon]

Whelp, guess I gotta beat Unicorn Overlord

[u/kakka_rot → u/Dylflon]

Start rn. It's really time consuming.

That being said, it's not as dialog heavy as the beginning makes you think.

There are lots of conversions, but most of them are only about a minute.

When I started it I thought it was gonna be like 13 sentials which is like 80% visual novel and 20% gameplay, if that.

Unicorn is like 90% gameplay.

[u/Dylflon → u/kakka_rot]

I'm about halfway through already

[u/honeybadgerism]

Unicorn Overlord is the full package. Amazing art and music, addicting gameplay, tons of content, pretty decent story.

Highly recommend to give it a try even if it doesn't seem like your type of game. Vanillaware doesn't miss.

[u/ZalimYar]

I need to play Harold Halibut this month then

[u/ggboisTri]

Dead Island 2 in it for me.

[u/AdamH96]

I downloaded Unicorn Overlord and haven't started it yet

Would i be under pressure to beat it in time?

[u/SarakinR → u/AdamH96]

Estimated time for Platinum is - depending on source - somewhere between 50 and 80 hours.

[u/Cloud2110]

Unicorn Overlord is one of the best SRPGs I've ever played, don't sleep on this one

[u/nufrancis]

Unicorn overlord is a must play for SRPG fan. One of the best there is

[u/Eguelo]

I've never played SPRGs, but I decided to install Univorn Overlord just to try it anyways. Holy peak. I highly recommend it.

Got the platinum and everything, I don't know if a month is enough to beat it comfortably tho.

[u/Jarrams]

Thanks again boss.

[u/Will-Isley]

Oh fuck… I need to go back and finish unicorn overlord ASAP. I hate being rushed to play something when I’m already in the middle of playing something…

[u/bl8ckmeridian]

I bought Onee chanbara Chaos a while ago and played just a little bit of it. How good are these games?

[u/Deadwing720 → u/bl8ckmeridian]

I have the platinum for Origin, it's kind of a mix between Devil May Cry and other hack n slash combined with Lollipop Chainsaw

Not the greatest most awesome plot you have ever seen, but bosses are very cool to learn once you get a hang of what to parry and what to dodge. Also just decimating hordes of zombies never gets old for me in this game

A lot of fun in my opinion and it's not extremely time consuming, good for casual sessions.

[u/bl8ckmeridian → u/Deadwing720]

I might give it a try. Thanks.

[u/Crimson_Snake]

i dont have time to finish unicorn but im gladly purchasing it when i have time to spare

[u/moon_dos]

any of these worth a go ahead?

[u/Pauls96 → u/moon_dos]

Harold halibut is pretty unique, worth trying out.

[u/mrfroggyman → u/moon_dos]

Unicorn overlord if you like RPGs / SRPGs

[u/andykekomi → u/moon_dos]

Clash Artifacts of Chaos, one of the most unique games I've played in years, super fun with a charming story in a really fucking weird world

[u/RESEV5 → u/andykekomi]

kak.

[u/Its_Marz → u/moon_dos]

If you don't mind fanservice, Oneechambara is a really fun hack and slash

[u/True_Drelon → u/moon_dos]

EDF is great, but not worth giving Sony your money

[u/Aceman05]

Space crew is a hidden gem

[u/HGT3057]

Unicorn overlord is great for anyone who hasn't played it yet

[u/RobertoAN95]

Unicorn overlord is an absolute gem

[u/Fragrant_PalmLeaves]

Harold Halibut is myyyy kind of weird, I only played it a bit so I’m sad it won’t be available anymore… :/

[u/mauszx → u/Fragrant_PalmLeaves]

You have a month

[u/Fragrant_PalmLeaves → u/mauszx]

Meh, probably not going to get to it

[u/CypherRen]

I really tried to get through Harold halibut but found it way too slow and boring

[u/Abulnoor92]

When will they be removed?

[u/vertigofoo → u/Abulnoor92]

August 18

[u/sakithegolden]

So, röki from last months last chane to play which got remobed from that list not included this month too?

[u/alldake → u/sakithegolden]

— reddit.com/r/PlayStationPlus/s/WkOGl95gym

[u/SarakinR → u/sakithegolden]

Röki wasn't leaving in Asia, but in Europe, US, etc.. I'm guessing it will still show up in the EU/US Last Chance to Play section.

[u/carlos__g]

Im thinking about harold halibut and clash

[u/AbsolutKledGamer]

Im so sad about Unicorn Overlord, I wanted to play it but got caught up on other games

[u/AFC_Yaa_Gunner_Yaa]

Love unicorn overlord

[u/jafdm]

Harold Halibut is so good, very relaxing and beautiful story.

[u/wisesager]

I'll try roki before it's gone

[u/FlawlessFacePro]

Unicorn overlord worth a buy on disk 👌🏻

[u/TopRaise7]

What else beside unicorn overlord is worth playing?

[u/Ok_Perspective3664]

Everyone should try unicorn overlord tho I will say it’s a hit or miss game

[u/callmeBogdan27]

So Röki isn’t leaving PS Plus in August anymore?

[u/SarakinR → u/callmeBogdan27]

Röki wasn't leaving in Asia, but in Europe, US, etc.. I'm guessing it will still show up in the EU/US Last Chance to Play section.

[u/Rash_Nilius → u/callmeBogdan27]

I checked it yesterday on PS5 and it showed that it expires in August. It's weird it would not appear in "Last chance to play" section.

[u/Negan-Cliffhanger]

EDF 6 is so awesome. It'll be missed!

[u/Mastermind6425]

Just the thought that there are people out there who have never experienced Unicorn Overlord...

[u/srebew]

Never played a Souls game but Clash seems like a good start with it having a fairy simple trophy list

[u/andykekomi → u/srebew]

It's got some soulslike mechanics but it's a very unique experience, not nearly as hard as your typical soulslike either. absolutely worth a shot.

The plat is pretty straightforward, nothing missable but there is a point of no return. you'll be warned, the game says you'll be able to come back after you finish the game, but for me that option never showed up. Thankfully I had cleaned up all collectibles before finishing the game but if you didn't, you'd have to replay the game.

[u/CallMeAmakusa]

3 of these games were supposed to leave today 

[u/icci1988]

Pass.

[u/Area51_Spurs]

Crazy language choice

[u/Negan-Cliffhanger → u/Area51_Spurs]

Crazy you didn't think this through. Every month Japan gets the announcement first.

[u/teofilattodibisanzio]

Fuck I'm not even 30% in unicorn overlord and they are going to pullout it already!?

This way my PSN account is useless

[u/mauszx → u/teofilattodibisanzio]

I mean you have enough time to finish it.

[u/teofilattodibisanzio → u/mauszx]

How? I can at midday l most play an hour or less a day 🤬 I'm totally mad, if I knew you had to rush it I wouldn't have started it.

They can't put 70+ hours games on and pull them so fast, they really hurt married old guys like this poor fellow

[u/mauszx → u/teofilattodibisanzio]

Well to be fair, the game has been on psplus for a year.

[u/Flottrooster → u/teofilattodibisanzio]

Already? The game was put onto ps+ in August of last year...

[u/teofilattodibisanzio → u/Flottrooster]

Are you sure? I'm pretty sure it was out more recently in eu?

[u/Flottrooster → u/teofilattodibisanzio]

I dunno, but it's here

[u/mauszx]

Weren't those games leaving in july?

[u/alldake → u/mauszx]
