billbil-kun has been accurately leaking PS Plus lineups almost every month since September 2021 so let's see what he claims.
According to billbil-kun, the three games that will be available from July 5th to August 2nd will be the following:
- Crash Bandicoot 4: It's About Time (PS5/PS4)
- The Dark Pictures: Man of Medan (PS4)
- Arcadegeddon (PS5/PS4)
PlayStation Plus Essential is the new name for the basic PS Plus subscription service, where players get access to a few "free" games each month.
Players can continue to play these games even after they become unavailable at the end of the monthly period, as long as they remain a PlayStation Plus Essential subscriber (or higher).

June's PlayStation Plus games are still available to claim until July 4th. What are they? God of War (2018), Naruto to Boruto: Shinobi Striker, and Nickelodeon All-Star Brawl.
