Sony Pulls PS3 Classics Resistance: Fall of Man, Resistance 2 from PS Plus Library
Next month, 22 games will exit the PlayStation Plus library, including Grand Theft Auto 5, Payday 2: Crimewave Edition, and the final playable versions of Sony’s first-party titles Resistance: Fall of Man and Resistance 2.
PlayStation Plus is an online gaming service for PlayStation consoles, offering free monthly games, time-limited trials, online multiplayer, and exclusive member discounts. It also provides a vast library of modern and classic games for Extra and Premium subscribers.
According to Push Square, 22 games, including two prominent Sony PS3 titles, will leave the PS Plus Premium library on May 20.

Since Resistance: Fall of Man and Resistance 2 are no longer available for purchase on the PS Store, the PS Plus Premium streaming service was the last way to play them without owning the physical games and a functional PS3. Both titles will be removed less than a year after their addition to the library in late 2024.
The Resistance series, developed by Insomniac, consists of alternate-history first-person shooters created after the studio’s work on Ratchet and Clank. Three Resistance titles launched on the PS3 before Insomniac shifted focus to projects like Marvel’s Spider-Man and new Ratchet and Clank games.
While it’s rare for Sony to remove its own first-party titles from the service, it’s not unprecedented, as seen with the unexpected removal of Horizon Zero Dawn and Horizon: Forbidden West in August 2024. However, those games remained available for purchase, unlike Resistance: Fall of Man and Resistance 2, which will no longer be accessible on modern consoles.
Notably, Resistance 3 and Resistance: Retribution will stay on the service. Additionally, the more recent first-party PS4 title InFamous: Second Son is also slated to leave PS Plus.
Insomniac’s Resistance series has been inactive for years. In February, Insomniac founder and outgoing president Ted Price shared that efforts to develop Resistance 4 were unsuccessful, as the project was never approved. Like Guerrilla’s Killzone series, Resistance has been sidelined.
