A new rumor suggesting that Final Fantasy XVI and Dragon’s Dogma 2 could be added to the PlayStation Plus Extra catalog has begun circulating online, though a well-known insider has cast doubt on the claim.
The rumor gained traction on social media earlier this week, with some posts suggesting that both titles may soon arrive on Sony’s subscription service. However, reliable industry insider billbil-kun responded to the speculation, stating that he is currently looking into the information but has not yet verified it.
In a message posted on X, billbil-kun wrote, “No idea where this rumour came from (Dragon’s Dogma 2 & FF16 soon on PS Plus Extra), but this is the first account that posted it. I’ve heard you so I’m checking a couple of things but can’t promise I’ll get the full answer. Stay tuned.”
The insider is widely known for accurately leaking PlayStation Plus monthly and catalog additions ahead of official announcements, which has led many players to treat his comments as a reliable indicator when new rumors begin circulating.
At the moment, there has been no official confirmation from Sony regarding either game joining the PS Plus Extra lineup. The claim appears to have originated from a single social media account, prompting billbil-kun to investigate whether the information has any basis.
Final Fantasy XVI originally launched on PlayStation 5 on June 22, 2023, before later expanding to additional platforms. The action-focused role-playing game eventually released on PC on September 17, 2024, and later arrived on Xbox Series X and Series S on June 8, 2025.
Dragon’s Dogma 2, developed by Capcom, released on March 22, 2024, for PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X and Series S, and PC. The open-world action RPG expanded on the original game’s pawn companion system and physics-driven combat, and it continues to maintain an active player base.
For now, the possibility of Final Fantasy XVI or Dragon’s Dogma 2 joining the PlayStation Plus Extra catalog remains unconfirmed, with the rumor still under investigation.
