PlayStation Plus’ July game catalog is absolutely stacked
Cloud, Zack, and Sephiroth stand back to back in Crisis Core: Final Fantasy VII Reunion.

PlayStation announced its PlayStation Plus catalog for July, and it's one of the most packed lineups we've seen in a while. It's not only a great mix of genres (including VR) but it features some well-known franchises as well as indies. They're all coming to PlayStation Plus Extra and Premium members on July 16.

Arguably, the two largest games are Remnant 2 and Crisis Core: Final Fantasy VII Reunion. The former is a third-person Soulslike shooter (yes that combination is possible) with procedurally generated areas and quests. It's a direct sequel to the popular Remnant: From the Ashes, so if you're looking for more of its unique blend of gameplay elements, this might be a good pick.
