On Tuesday, December 19, PS Plus Extra subscribers will have 14 games to look forward to, headlined by Grand Theft Auto 5.

Retro games are the main draw of PS Plus Premium, and so subscribers will be happy to see these games added. The two Thrillville games were PSP titles back in the day, whereas Buzz Lightyear of Star Command was originally released for the PS1. All three games were previously leaked for PS Plus Premium, but now fans can circle December 19 on their calendars as the exact date the games will be available on the service.
Nostalgic fans will no doubt be excited to revisit Buzz Lightyear of Star Command, but others may not be as impressed. After all, Buzz Lightyear of Star Command earned mixed to negative reviews when it first released, and there are still many high profile PS1, PS2, and PSP games missing from the PS Plus Premium lineup. Regardless, PS Plus Premium subscribers can check out these games while they wait for updates on future games for the service.
