Early Reveal of October 2024 PS Plus Games
Typically, Sony announces the monthly PS Plus lineup on the last Wednesday of each month. However, for October, Sony broke tradition by unveiling the games ahead of time during the State of Play event. This announcement highlights an exciting mix of genres, making it a thrilling month for PS Plus subscribers.
Starting October 1, 2024, PlayStation gamers will be able to claim and enjoy the following titles as part of their PS Plus subscription:
- WWE 2K24 (PS4/PS5)
- Dead Space Remake (PS5)
- Doki Doki Literature Club Plus (PS4/PS5)
WWE 2K24 – A Big Hit for Wrestling Fans
The latest entry in the long-running wrestling series, WWE 2K24, is a major addition to the October lineup. Released just a few months ago in March 2024, this installment brings even more polish and updated rosters to wrestling fans. The game offers enhanced visuals, a robust career mode, and the return of fan-favorite match types, making it one of the best wrestling games in recent memory. Its inclusion in the PS Plus lineup is a fantastic offering for those who haven’t yet picked up the game.
Dead Space Remake – Perfect for the Spooky Season
For horror fans, October just wouldn’t be complete without a terrifying experience, and Dead Space delivers that in spades. The Dead Space remake brings back the iconic sci-fi survival horror game with a modernized approach. Originally released in 2008, this remake overhauls the original game’s graphics and gameplay mechanics, offering players an immersive and chilling experience aboard the USG Ishimura. With Halloween right around the corner, this game will be a must-play for those looking to get into the spooky spirit.
Doki Doki Literature Club Plus – A Unique Horror Experience
While Doki Doki Literature Club Plus may seem like a lighthearted visual novel at first glance, it quickly takes a dark turn. This psychological horror game became a viral sensation for its deceptive storytelling and disturbing themes. The Plus version offers enhanced visuals and new content, making it a great addition for horror enthusiasts who want something a bit more mind-bending than the usual jump scares. It’s a fitting companion to Dead Space for the Halloween season.
A Solid October Lineup
While some might be underwhelmed by the selection, the October 2024 PS Plus lineup covers a wide range of interests. Wrestling fans will dive into the action of WWE 2K24, horror lovers can enjoy the intensity of Dead Space, and players looking for a more psychological thrill can explore Doki Doki Literature Club Plus. All in all, the combination of these games brings strong value to PS Plus subscribers this month.
Don’t Miss Out on September’s Free Games
Before October rolls in, PlayStation Plus subscribers still have time to claim September’s free games. The current lineup includes Harry Potter: Quidditch Champions (a day-one release), MLB The Show 24 for sports fans, and the spooky platformer Little Nightmares 2. With Dead Space and Doki Doki Literature Club Plus coming in October, horror enthusiasts have plenty to look forward to as Halloween approaches.
Final Thoughts
October 2024’s free PS Plus games offer something for every type of gamer. Whether you’re into fast-paced wrestling action, sci-fi horror, or psychological thrillers, this lineup has you covered.
