In an exciting leak for PlayStation fans, it appears that Disney-Pixar’s beloved 2008 game, WALL-E, is set to make a comeback on the PlayStation 4 and PlayStation 5 via the PlayStation Plus Premium service. Gamers can look forward to seeing WALL-E potentially joining the ranks of the PlayStation Plus catalog this coming March, joining a roster of classic titles from the PlayStation, PlayStation 2, and PlayStation Portable libraries that subscribers get to enjoy monthly.
Sony’s subscription service, PlayStation Plus, regularly offers a selection of free games to members across various tiers: Essential, Extra, and Premium. While every tier has its own appeal, the Premium category stands out by giving subscribers access to nostalgic classics from the PS1, PS2, and PSP eras, along with the ability to stream PS3 and PS5 games via the cloud. Recent games to make their way into this nostalgic collection include the PS2 game Dropship: United Peace Force and the adored PSP rhythm game, Patapon 3.
Not long ago, Gematsu, a well-regarded source in the gaming community, discovered that Taiwan’s Ratings Board had given the thumbs-up for WALL-E on PS4 and PS5. This rating hints at WALL-E’s upcoming release for these consoles under the PlayStation Plus Premium banner. However, given the historical context of games being rated, it’s anticipated that the version in question might be the one initially seen on the PS2 or PSP, not its PS3 counterpart, as PS3 games remain confined to cloud streaming on the service.
Excitement is bubbling among fans as they speculate whether the PS2 version of WALL-E might soon grace the PlayStation Plus Premium catalog. Yet, with previous trends showing Disney-Pixar games from the PS2 era not making the leap, many anticipate that the more portable PSP version might be what subscribers receive—following in the footsteps of previous releases like Up and Toy Story 3. Only a select few Disney offerings, such as Indiana Jones and the Staff of Kings and Star Wars: The Clone Wars, have been made available, making this anticipated addition all the more intriguing.
As the anticipation builds, Sony is gearing up to announce its next round of PlayStation Plus Game and Classics selections come mid-March 2025. Before we hit March, we can expect the reveal of this month’s free games lineup around March 3, marking the final day subscribers can secure their February offerings. Highlights from last month included Payday 3, High on Life, and Pac-Man World Re-Pac, all of which are available for download on both PS4 and PS5 across all subscription plans.
The intrigue surrounding WALL-E’s potential inclusion in March’s PlayStation Plus Premium lineup underscores the excitement and variety these monthly game drops bring to the gaming community. With so much to look forward to, the next few months are shaping up to be quite a ride for PlayStation Plus members.
