Sony's PlayStation Plus Extra subscription offers an extensive library catering to a wide range of gaming preferences. From sprawling RPGs such as Dragon Quest 11 and Skyrim to fast-paced action games like Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart, and competitive titles like For Honor, there’s something for nearly every type of gamer. Co-op experiences, both local and online, are well-represented, encouraging collaboration and shared gameplay moments.
While local co-op options are covered elsewhere, this list focuses on the best online co-op games available through PS Plus. Updated on January 12, 2025, by Mark Sammut, the lineup includes titles from PS Plus Essential, Premium, and even some highlights from Essential that stand out despite their polarizing nature.
Rankings prioritize games that exclusively support online co-op, but a few exceptions are included for variety. Factors such as quality and recency of addition to the service also influence the order.
1. Suicide Squad: Kill The Justice League (PS Plus Essential for January 2025)
The Definition of "Not Great But Fun With Friends"
Suicide Squad: Kill The Justice League has divided opinions since its release, but it shines when played cooperatively. The game encourages teamwork as players take control of Harley Quinn, Deadshot, Captain Boomerang, and King Shark to tackle the Justice League. Its chaotic combat and over-the-top storytelling make it a wild ride, especially when enjoyed with friends. While single-player struggles with repetitive missions, the multiplayer mode breathes life into the experience, offering a fresh take on superhero brawlers.
