HALLOWEEN is fast approaching, and PlayStation Plus subscribers will be treated to some excellent games to set the mood this month.
PlayStation has revealed its October list of titles coming to PS Plus Extra and Premium in less than a week.
It comes as no surprise that quite a few games from this month’s lineup are themed around zombies, ghosts, serial killers, and other horror tropes, even deadly dinosaurs.
Dead Island 2 is a recent action RPG set in a quarantined Los Angeles amid a massive zombie outbreak.
Horror fans can also pick up The Dark Pictures Anthology: The Devil in Me, an interactive cinematic drama set in a replica of serial killer H. H. Holmes’ hotel.
If you’re looking for more lighthearted Halloween vibes, there’s Ghostbusters: Spirits Unleashed, where friends can play together in matches, either as ghostbusters or ghosts.
Available only to PS Plus Premium subscribers is Siren, a PS2-era horror game set in a village full of undead people known as shibito.
Other highlights of this month include Spanish indie game Gris, about a young girl coping with sorrow, whose emotional growth changes the world around her, revealing new paths to explore.
Fans of point-and-click adventures are getting the latest game in the Monkey Island series, Return to Monkey Island, a great addition to the PS Plus Game Catalogue.
Management sim Two Point Campus is also coming to the subscription service and will keep you busy for hours on end as you try to build and manage the best university in the world.
Premium members who own the PS VR2 headset for PS5 can also play The Last Clockwinder, a puzzle automation game where you record your actions and create clones that repeat tasks in a loop.
Subscribers will be able to download and play this month’s lineup starting on October 15, 2024.
Here is the full list of games coming to PS Plus Extra and Premium in October 2024:
All new games are playable on both PS4 and PS5, except Return to Monkey Island, which is available only for the PS5.
Three classic games and one PSVR2 title will be available only to PS Plus Premium subscribers.
