PS Plus Essential gives subscribers monthly free games and all the other perks that were associated with PlayStation Plus over the years, like online multiplayer. The next step up is PlayStation Plus Extra, which includes everything that the Essential tier does plus a large selection of PS4 and PS5 games.

New PS Plus Extra Games for October 2024

  • Dead Island 2
  • Firefighting Simulator: The Squad
  • Ghostbusters: Spirits Unleashed
  • Gris
  • Overpass 2
  • Return to Monkey Island
  • The Dark Pictures Anthology: The Devil in Me
  • Tom Clancy's Ghost Recon Wildlands

Out of all the new games coming to PS Plus Extra on October 15, the headliner is easily Dead Island 2. Dead Island 2 is a co-op zombie FPS that originally released in 2023 and earned mostly positive reviews from critics. Since launch, Dead Island 2 has since been supported with important updates and paid DLC. There's even more Dead Island 2 content on the way, so it's coming to PS Plus Extra at the perfect time.

Other games PS Plus Extra subscribers may want to prioritize when it comes to the October 2024 lineup include critically-acclaimed platformer Gris, the well-reviewed Return to Monkey Island, and the popular Two Point Campus. Horror fans looking to get into the spirit of the Halloween season may also want to give The Dark Pictures Anthology: The Devil in Me a try. For the uninitiated, The Dark Pictures games are made by Supermassive Games, the studio behind the original Until Dawn, and they play very similarly, but with added bells and whistles like co-op support.
