PS Plus getting two of the best horror games of the PS5 era – for free

PlayStation Plus members are getting a couple of real treats next month, especially those with Extra and Premium subscriptions.

Two of the best horror games of recent times are coming to PS Plus at no extra cost, with one available to all members as part of October's monthly free games, and the second added to the game catalogue even earlier – tomorrow in fact, Friday 26 September.

Alan Wake 2 will be part of the monthly games drop on 7 October, and is really something to look forward to. It'll be available for PS5 and PS5 Pro (with enhancements) to all Essential, Extra and Premium members.

Both incredible looking and as immersive as they come, the survival horror is rated 89 on Metacritic for a reason. It's truly excellent.

It will be joined by Cocoon and Goat Simulator 3, which were also announced as part of Sony's latest State of Play presentation.

But you won't even have to wait a week for the other horror title. It also just so happens to be one of the best PlayStation games of all time.

The Last of Us Part 2 Remastered is coming to PS5 and PS5 Pro (again with enhancements) as part of the Last of Us Day celebrations tomorrow. It'll be available as part of the game catalogue accessible to Extra and Premium members.

Refreshed for the current gen consoles, it is undoubtedly the best way to play the Naughty Dog classic, and if you've never played it before, prepare for an emotional rollercoaster of a ride.

Also confirmed to be coming to the game catalogue, albeit later in October, are Tekken 3, Soul Calibur 3, and Lara Croft Tomb Raider Anniversary. Some of the games will be available on PS4 too (but not The Last of Us Part 2 Remastered and Alan Wake 2).
