Changes Coming To PlayStation Plus Instant Game Collection In June
The six PlayStation Plus titles for June have been announced, along with some changes coming to the program. Starting in June, each month will feature two titles each for PlayStation 4, PlayStation 3, and Vita.
In addition, starting in July, all six games will be available from the first Tuesday of the month until the first Tuesday of the following month. Additionally, some long-time titles will be phased out soon, so it’s a good idea to lock in your licenses.
The coming month will feature Trine 2: Complete Story and Pixeljunk Shooter Ultimate for PS4. PS3 owners will get NBA 2K14 and Sly Cooper: Thieves in Time. Finally, Sony will offer up Terraria and Mutant Mudds Deluxe for Vita.
Be sure your downloads are up to date, as next Tuesday, June 3, will likely see the beginning of the exodus for long-standing titles. Now’s a good time to make sure you haven’t missed any of the past offerings that are still available. For May's titles, be sure to read the complete rundown.
Update: This story originally indicated that the "all at once" practice would begin in June. The story has been corrected to reflect that the new delivery method will start in July.

Our Take
I’ll miss the weekly updates we share on Monday, as finding out which title is coming aboard is always fun. I wonder if this will see less playtime for each of the included games since they aren’t spaced out. If so, it could also mean lower DLC revenue for participating publishers and developers.
I’d like to ask you to support Game Informer’s continued coverage of games with a subscription. For less than two dollars per issue, we mail you a full year of 10 print magazines, each with cover stories and preview features filled with exclusive details about the most exciting upcoming games. We profile and interview game creators. We look back on the rich history of gaming, and we celebrate what’s next.
Here on the website, we offer much of our content for free, including game reviews, daily news, videos, event coverage, and more – all with minimal ads.
We do so with a small editorial team, alongside contributing paid writers from around the world – over 65 individuals from 9 countries around the world, just in the last couple of years.
It’s not possible without support.
In a time when game makers and games coverage have faced hard struggles and layoffs, the future of this 30+ year magazine and community is at risk. Our new standalone magazine subscription is the number one way you can keep us alive – and we believe you’ll get a pretty fantastic gaming magazine in your mailbox every few weeks for your trouble.
Thank you.
