Get ready for a spine-chilling gaming experience this Halloween season, because Sony’s PlayStation Plus Extra and Premium catalog just got a hauntingly good upgrade! But here’s where it gets controversial: while some titles are undisputed classics, others have sparked debates among gamers. Let’s dive into what’s coming your way starting October 21st.
First up, horror fans are in for a treat with the highly acclaimed Silent Hill 2 remake, which earned a five-star review from Eurogamer last year. This isn’t just a game—it’s a masterclass in psychological terror. And this is the part most people miss: the remake of Until Dawn, while divisive, still offers a thrilling interactive horror experience, even if it doesn’t quite match the original’s brilliance. Speaking of which, did you know the original Until Dawn celebrated its 10th anniversary this year? We explored its fascinating development story back in August—definitely worth a read!
But Halloween isn’t the only theme here. If you’re craving variety, Yakuza: Like a Dragon brings its unique blend of RPG action and humor, while V Rising lets you sink your teeth into a vampire survival adventure. For those who prefer drama over scares, As Dusk Falls delivers an acclaimed interactive narrative. And if you’re in the mood for chaos, Wizard with a Gun offers twin-stick shooter fun. Premium subscribers, don’t feel left out—Tekken 3 is here to satisfy your nostalgia for classic fighting action.
Here’s the bold question: With such a diverse lineup, which game are you most excited to try? And which one do you think falls short of the hype? Let’s debate in the comments!
