Summary
- PS Plus Extra members in the US can enjoy a bonus game this month with A-Train Express, which was not originally listed by Sony.
- A-Train Express is only available in the US, similar to previous instances where bonus games were exclusive to specific regions.
- Seven games will be leaving the PS Plus Extra and Premium catalog in November, but the upcoming lineup suggests that members will still have access to AAA titles.
Members in the Extra tier of PlayStation Plus in the US can play a bonus game this month, as users in this category can try out A-Train Express at no extra cost. PS Plus Extra subscribers get a bunch of new games every month, with gamers in the Premium tier getting some additional benefits on top.
The PS Plus Extra and Premium games for October 2023 are now available to subscribers, giving them access to some noteworthy titles. Users in the Extra tier can play Gotham Knights, Alien: Isolation, Disco Elysium, and more as a part of their subscription service, while Premium subscribers get Tekken 6 and Soulcalibur: Broken Destiny among others. Now, it looks like PS Plus Extra members in the US got a bonus game this month, as players can also try out A-Train Express.
As reported by TrueTrophies, A-Train Express is now available to users in the Extra and Premium tiers of PlayStation Plus in the US, even though it was absent from the official list revealed by Sony on the PlayStation Blog. TrueTrophies notes that users in the UK and Europe don’t have access to A-Train Express, while also recommending fans to check if it’s available on the PlayStation Store in their region.
It’s strange for A-Train Express to be only be available in some regions, but similar incidents have occurred in the past. PlayStation Plus subscribers in Asia got to play a bonus free monthly game earlier this year, as users got access to Sword Art Online: Alicization Lycoris in February. This title was added to the lineup along with Destiny 2: Beyond Light, Evil Dead: The Game, Mafia: The Definitive Edition, and OlliOlli World, so players in Asia got to try out five games that month.
As the PlayStation Plus Extra and Premium games for October 2023 are now live, Sony has also revealed the list of games leaving the catalog next month. A total of 7 games will leave PS Plus Extra and Premium in November 2023 including Giana Sisters: Twisted Dreams - Director's Cut, My Time at Portia, and Wild Guns: Reloaded. These games are set to be removed on November 21, so players have around a month to try them out. Overall, it doesn’t look like PS Plus Extra and Premium members will lose access to AAA games in November, especially when compared to the list of major titles that have been recently removed from the service.
