PS Plus games for October 2026 have been confirmed

The first wave of games coming to PlayStation Plus this October have been revealed – check out the full list below:

PlayStation Plus is a subscription-based service that gives members access to certain online features and a constantly evolving library of games across three different membership tiers.

Last month it was confirmed that four new games would be added to the PlayStation Plus Essential tier – Sniper Elite Resistance, MLB The Show 26, Wobbly Life, Chained Echoes – while Premium and Extra subscribers could play RuneScape: Dragonwilds, Ball x Pit, Sniper Elite: Resistance and more.

Sony has now confirmed that all PS Plus members will be able to claim a trio of games for free from next week (October 6) – F1 25, Hunt: Showdown 1896 , and Earth Defense Force: World Brothers 2 – and announced that subscribers have until October 5 to claim September’s Monthly Games.

The Extra and Premium games for this month will be announced on October 14.

After a controversial price hike that saw many users cancel their PlayStation Plus subscription , the Essential tier (which lets players access a select number of games) currently costs £7.99 a month. Extra is available for £11.99 a month and gives subscribers access to Game Catalogue, a library of “hundreds of games from genre-defining blockbusters to innovative indies”. Premium adds more classic titles and game trials to the offering for £14.99 a month.

Players threatened to cancel their PlayStation Plus memberships following the announcement that Sony will be scrapping physical releases from early 2028, but a new report claims the protest had “no measurable impact” on player engagement.

In other news, Square Enix have confirmed a ‘Distant Worlds’ orchestral tour to celebrate 40 years of the Final Fantasy franchise. Tickets for the shows go on sale next week and you can see the full list of dates here .
