PlayStation Plus October 2024 games include Dead Space scares and WWE 2K24 slams
19 days ago
PlayStation Plus subscribers’ free Essential games for October are Dead Space, WWE 2K24, and Doki Doki Literature Club, Sony Interactive Entertainment announced Tuesday during a State of Play livestream. Players can download the trio of games beginning Oct. 1.
Dead Space is Electronic Arts and Motive Studio’s excellent remake of the 2008 sci-fi horror adventure game. As engineer Isaac Clarke, your mission is to uncover the mystery behind the disaster aboard the mining vessel USG Ishimura (and survive the horrors within). Dead Space’s release on PS Plus is perfectly timed for spooky season, and if you haven’t played it yet — and you’ve got the stomach for it — it’s a must-play.
WWE 2K24 is 2K Games and Visual Concepts’ latest entry in the WWE wrestling simulation franchise. WWE 2K24 offers small but welcome improvements over last year’s release, for those looking to get back into video game professional wrestling.
Doki Doki Literature Club is “an uncontrollably horrific visual novel.” We may have already said too much, but if you’ve somehow missed out on the magic of Doki Doki Literature Club, just go ahead and play it without reading anything more about it.
October 2024’s PS Plus games will be available for download through Nov. 4.
PS Plus subscribers can still pick up September’s PlayStation Plus Essential games — Harry Potter: Quidditch Champions, MLB The Show 24, and Little Nightmares 2 — through Sept. 30.
PlayStation Plus Essential is the lowest tier available in Sony Interactive Entertainment’s subscription service. It offers online multiplayer access, a monthly assortment of free PS4 and PS5 games, cloud storage, and discounts on PlayStation Store purchases. PlayStation Plus Essential costs $79.99 annually, $24.99 for a three-month subscription, or $9.99 monthly.
