How does PS Plus get Destiny 2 in June?
PS Plus adds Destiny 2 the day support ends
Sony is planning a PlayStation Plus rollout tied directly to Destiny 2’s end-of-development milestone. The provided stories say Sony will add Destiny 2 to PlayStation Plus Extra and Premium on the same day the game receives its final content update in June.
That final update is scheduled for June 9. By aligning the PlayStation Plus availability with that date, Sony is effectively giving subscribers a “catch-up window” at the moment Bungie is finishing its live-service updates. In other words, the game’s last major update arrives, then the title becomes more broadly accessible through the subscription tiers.
Why this matters is straightforward for players: many people who may not have played Destiny 2 before can now jump in through their existing PlayStation Plus library rather than purchasing the game separately. It also gives returning players a reason to reinstall right around the closing chapter.
The stories also indicate Sony is running these announcements within the context of Days of Play. So the Destiny 2 timing is not just about Destiny—it’s part of a larger platform push that includes PS Plus promotions and other service-level adjustments.
There’s also a knock-on effect for the community: when a major live-service game enters its final-update phase, player bases often spike as people “see the end.” Making Destiny 2 available across Extra and Premium on that specific day can accelerate that return.
Overall, Sony’s plan is to bundle the end of Destiny 2’s content arc with increased access on PlayStation Plus, turning June 9 into a dual event for both Bungie’s roadmap and Sony’s subscription strategy.
- Extra/Premium availability begins June 9
- It coincides with the final content update
- The move boosts access during the game’s farewell period
