When could subscribers claim the games?
The announced availability period was January 6 through February 2, 2026. That period has ended, so these titles are no longer claimable as part of that Monthly Games offer. Whether a game remains available through another offer or for purchase is a separate question and can change.
Which game fits your console and interests?

Could the January games differ by region?
