While Sony has not yet made official the list of PS Plus Essential games for February, a leak signed by the famous leaker billbil-kun is already shaking up the networks. The game revealed, Undisputedis not unanimous, despite the informant’s reputation for reliability. He published an enigmatic message suggesting that the coming months could mark a turning point in the quality of games offered via subscription.
“The first free game for PlayStation Plus Essential subscribers is boxing game Undisputed”. This title, released in 2024, intended to revive the golden age of virtual boxing, but without reproducing the enthusiasm once aroused by the series Fight Night.
A spiritual heir who struggles to convince
Presented as a tribute to the classics of the genre, “Undisputed was presented as a sort of spiritual successor to Fight Night”. Its technical gameplay and desire for realism have been praised by some, but the notes on Metacritic (70/100 for critics, 4.8/10 for players) show that the game did not fully meet expectations.
For many subscribers, this leak is disappointing. In question: an offer perceived as weaker than those of previous years, which included games like OlliOlli World, Mafia: Definitive EditionOr Steelrising.
An almost infallible source: should we trust it?
The name of billbil-kun is not unknown in the PlayStation sphere. Known for his precise revelations, the leaker regularly contributes to forums like Dealabs or Reddit. “billbil-kun has had a 100% success rate for PlayStation Plus game leaks for years.” At this point, his announcement almost amounts to confirmation.
However, he warns of a change in trend: “A drop in quality could be seen for PlayStation Plus in 2026”. This remark, although vague, already sows doubt among Sony subscription loyalists.
See you on January 28 for the complete list
Sony is expected to make February’s PS Plus Essential games official on January 28, as usual, around 11:30 a.m. ET. In the meantime, alone Undisputed seems confirmed via this leak. If the trend continues, February 2026 could well be a month of transition for the service, with a possible repositioning of the “Essential” range. It remains to be seen whether this first title will be accompanied by surprises, or if the “less premium” line mentioned by billbil-kun is verified for good.
