PS Plus October headlined by a whole bunch of Assassin’s Creed games
>
The PS Plus game catalog lineup in October is a good one. If you’re a big Assassin’s Creed fan, that is.
The PS Plus game catalog updates for October include six Assassin’s Creed games, the best of which is Assassin’s Creed Odyssey. Odyssey is joined by Assassin’s Creed Syndicate, Assassin’s Creed 3 Remastered, and the Assassin’s Creed Chronicles trilogy. In addition to Assassin’s Creed Valhalla, that much AC love is available on PS5.
JRPG fans also have a lot in store for October, especially if you like Dragon Quest. Dragon Quest 11 S: Echoes of an Elusive Age – Definitive Edition is a great choice if you want to scratch that JRPG itch. It is also accompanied by the games Dragon Quest Heroes and Dragon Quest Builders.
October is the perfect time to hunt your ghost, consider downloading creepy games like Inside and The Medium if you’re looking for some horror goodness. Finally, GTA Vice City: Definitive Edition rounds out the major additions to the PS Plus game catalog from October. Everything will be available for download from October 18th if you have a PS Plus Extra or Premium subscription.
Check out the full list of additions to the game catalog for October on the official PlayStation blog (opens in new tab).
PS Plus Extra subscribers have a lot to look forward to this month. There are plenty of great additions here that complement this month’s free PS Plus games. But again, it looks like PS Plus Premium subscribers have been left out to dry.
Premium subscribers are getting Yakuza 3, 4 and 5 Remastered this month, which feels a bit cheeky considering these are PS4 titles that should probably also be available for download via the Extra tier. There’s some PS3 rendering in Castlevania: Lords of Shadow and Everyday Shooter, but nothing for PS1, PS2, or PSP fans.
It feels like a missed opportunity from Sony. It’s Halloween season, so what better time to play some of the best classic Resident Evil games or one of the first four Silent Hill games? Thankfully there’s an extremely good PS2 survival horror game on PS Plus Premium, but October would have been the perfect time to add more.
