Stray, the cat adventure game developed by BlueTwelve and published by Annapurna Interactive, will reportedly headline the PlayStation Plus Essential games lineup for November 2025.

Earlier today, known leaker billbil-kun, who has proven extremely reliable regarding PlayStation Plus game lineup leaks in the past, revealed in a new report posted on Dealabs that the game that made headlines when it was launched in July 2022 for being widely appreciated by cats as much as by their owners will be available to all PlayStation Plus Essential, Extra, and Premium subscribers starting from November 4.

Interestingly, Stray's joining the PlayStation Plus library next month would be its return to the service rather than its debut. At launch, the game was made available as part of the PlayStation Plus Extra library and was available to subscribers for around one year. The game's departure from the PlayStation subscription service coincided with the end of its one-year console exclusivity.

Although Stray's addition to the PlayStation Plus subscription service may be disappointing for some users, especially after this month's addition of the excellent Alan Wake 2, there could still be some surprises waiting in the wings. Two more titles will be part of November's lineup, which is expected to be revealed in full later this week, on October 29.

For those who never had the chance to try out the game before, however, Stray will be an excellent addition to the PlayStation Plus library, as the game features some great visuals, a richly-realized world, fun platforming, and more.
