As part of the latest State of Play presentation, Sony unveiled its upcoming PlayStation Plus Essential subscription tier offer, which will be available to subscribers in October. Of course, this information could have easily been lost amongst the other announcements and trailers, but let’s recap it here for clarity. October will undoubtedly offer a diverse lineup thanks to three vastly different titles. Again, we’re in for some sports horror or a game that deceives the body.
October PlayStation Plus Essential Games: A Diverse Lineup
The first title in October’s lineup is the still relative newcomer WWE 2K24, this year’s installment in the wrestling sports series from Visual Concepts and 2K, which releases on March 8, 2024. The game is available in both PlayStation 4 and PlayStation 5 versions. Next up is last year’s remake of Dead Space, which saw developers from EA Motive studio take the reins and gift PlayStation 5 gamers with a very successful and, in a good way, terrifying reworking of the original 2008 game. In contrast, the latest game is already a bit of a trip into the past, as it’s 2021’s Doki Doki Literature Club Plus!, a revamp of the original 2017 free-to-play game with new content. If you’re unfamiliar with the game, though, it probably wouldn’t be appropriate to say more about this visual novel except that everything is not what it seems. This game is also available in both PlayStation 4 and PlayStation 5 versions.
PlayStation Plus October Availability and Last Chance for September Games
The October offering will be available from Tuesday, October 1, through Monday, November 4, 2024. Until September 30, subscribers still have the option to add September’s games to their library, which are Harry Potter: Quidditch Champions, MLB The Show 24, and Little Nightmares II.
