PS Plus Extra and Premium October 2026: every game and date
Sony announced the lineup on the PlayStation Blog on October 14. The rollout is staggered, so here is when each game unlocks, what it costs to buy outright, and how PC players rate it on Steam.
| Game | Tier | Platforms | Playable from | US price to buy | Steam rating (PC) |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| The Midnight Walk | Extra | PS5 (PS VR2 optional) | Now (Oct 14) | $29.99 | 93% Very Positive |
| Mafia: The Old Country | Extra | PS5 | Oct 20 | $49.99 | 73% Mostly Positive |
| Horizon Forbidden West | Extra | PS5, PS4 | Oct 20 | $49.99 | 88% Very Positive |
| Mycopunk (day one) | Extra | PS5 | Oct 20 | Not listed yet ($14.99 on Steam) | 88% Very Positive |
| Poppy Playtime: Chapter 2 | Extra | PS5, PS4 | Oct 27 | $9.99 | – |
| Tales of Arise – Beyond the Dawn Edition | Extra | PS5, PS4 | Oct 27 | $49.99 | 87% Very Positive |

| Dino Crisis 2 | Premium | PS5, PS4 | Oct 20 | – | – |
| RollerCoaster Tycoon 3 Complete Edition | Premium | PS5, PS4 | Oct 20 | – | 87% Very Positive |
Added up, the six Extra games with a PS Store price are worth about $250 at full US prices, before Mycopunk. Sony doesn’t give an unlock time for Tuesday, and it notes that catalog lineups can differ by region, so check the PlayStation Store on the day. The October 27 dates are confirmed for the US, the UK and Japan.
Mafia: The Old Country is on sale now, but Extra members can wait
Mafia: The Old Country, Hangar 13’s mob story set in 1900s Sicily, is the headline pick. It’s also $29.99 (40% off $49.99) on the PS Store until October 22 at 06:59 UTC (11:59 p.m. PT on October 21), a discount open to everyone, not only PS Plus members. If you already pay for Extra or Premium, there’s no reason to buy it: it joins the catalog two days before the sale ends. If you’re on Essential, the sale is the way to get it without changing tiers. On Steam, players rate it “Mostly Positive” (73%); it’s worth your time if you want a cinematic, story-first crime game.
Horizon Forbidden West returns to the catalog (Sony marks it as a PS Plus re-release) for PS5 and PS4. It’s the pick for anyone who skipped Aloy’s second adventure, and PC players rate it 88% positive on Steam.

Mycopunk and The Midnight Walk: the indie picks
Mycopunk launches on PS5 straight into the catalog on October 20. Pigeons at Play’s four-player co-op looter shooter, published by Devolver Digital, has robot exterminators fighting fungal aliens with hundreds of weapon upgrades. On PC it has been in Steam Early Access since July 2025, where 88% of nearly 4,800 reviews are positive. Pick it if you have a regular co-op group.

The Midnight Walk is already in the catalog. MoonHood’s dark fantasy adventure is built from real clay and animated in stop motion, and it’s fully playable on a TV or in PS VR2. It’s the best-rated game of the month on Steam (93%) and a good fit for spooky season if full horror is too much. Our cozy Halloween games list has more gentle picks. Non-subscribers can buy it for $13.49 (down from $29.99) until October 22, 06:59 UTC.
What PS Plus Premium adds in October
Premium members get two classics on October 20: Capcom’s 2000 survival horror sequel Dino Crisis 2 and the 2004 park builder RollerCoaster Tycoon 3 in its Complete Edition. If RollerCoaster Tycoon is your thing, our best tycoon games on mobile list covers the series on phones too. New Game Trials for Resonance: A Plague Tale Legacy and Mortal Shell II also go live on October 20.
