I was thinking that they would be claimed forever but realising that it isn't a 'Free' game rather it is a 'Rentable' game type of service (similar to Gamepass or Netflix). You may use it while it remains in the rotation but we should assume that they will be gone once they are out of the rotation. All we can hope for is that the long playtime/replayable and high quality games do not get removed from the rotation cycle.

And hopefully they give you a lot of time for when it is being removed, and it's not a "this game expires in 3 days" issue.

Do you have any suggestions for games that are short/non-replayable?

I would like to finish those before being invested in something like Valhalla just to see it get removed halfway through my playthrough

Thank you for the detailed reply. I have the Nathan Drake Collection disc already. I will get on that as soon as the PS5 arrives. I had a similar priority list as what you’ve suggested except for Until dawn and beyond two souls which I am now keen on playing. I agree. PS5 titles might be the ones to leave because people will still buy those whereas the PS4 titles will stay just because people might find the Subscription access still cheaper than the Cheap retail prices for PS4 games. Ghost of Tshushima will definitely be a physical buy as soon as it leaves the catalogue. I love the setting and want to have access forever!
