Sony released the top PS Store downloads of July 2022, and the surprise feline blockbuster Stray leads the pack on both PS4 and PS5. It’s not often we see an indie game place so highly, and the rankings are a bit odd in general.

It looks like the lack of major releases and the introduction of PS Plus Extra and Premium made this month’s top downloads a free-for-all. These lists used to be an excellent way to gauge how well new releases are performing. So, we hope Sony will start listing PS Plus downloads separately in the future.
