PS Plus October Lineup: Mafia, Horizon Forbidden West Join the Library
PlayStation Plus Extra and Premium members get Mafia: The Old Country, Horizon Forbidden West, and Tales of Arise among October's additions, plus day-one launch Mycopunk.
October's PlayStation Plus lineup just landed, and Extra and Premium members are eating well this month. The new games are live now in the PS HK store, and the mix covers everything from open-world epics to horror puzzles and off-road racing.
Leading the Extra tier charge is Mafia: The Old Country, alongside Horizon Forbidden West and Tales of Arise: Beyond the Dawn Edition. That's a hefty trio right there — a gritty crime saga, one of PlayStation's biggest open-world adventures, and a meaty RPG expansion version of a fan-favorite. If you've been holding off on any of these, this is your excuse to dive in.
One highlight worth circling: Mycopunk arrives October 21 and lands as a day-one launch for the service. Getting a brand-new title straight into the library is always a nice perk, and this one's unlocking mid-month, so keep an eye on the calendar.
Also joining the Extra lineup is Poppy Playtime: Chapter 2, bringing the creepy toy-box horror vibes for anyone who likes their puzzles with a side of dread. Between that and the open-world and RPG offerings, October's Extra selection spreads a wide net across genres.
Over on the Premium tier, it's a nostalgia hit. Dinosaur Crisis 2 and RollerCoaster Tycoon 3: Complete Edition both join the classics catalog, serving up retro thrills for longtime fans. Premium members also get trials for A Plague Tale: Requiem-flavored Resonance: A Plague Tale Legacy and Mortal Shell 2, letting you sample both before committing.
All told, it's a well-rounded month — day-one drops, blockbuster adventures, horror, racing, and classic comebacks all in one batch. Whether you're into story-driven crime dramas or just want to build the coaster park of your dreams, there's something here for you.
So what's first on your download list — Mafia, Horizon, or are you jumping straight into Mycopunk on day one? Let us know what you're grabbing.
