This guide explores the revamped PlayStation Plus service and its horror game offerings. Sony's 2022 overhaul introduced three tiers: Essential, Extra, and Premium. While Essential is required for online play and offers monthly freebies, horror enthusiasts will find a richer selection in the Extra and Premium tiers.
Extra grants access to hundreds of PS5 and PS4 games, with approximately 15 new additions monthly. Premium encompasses all Extra titles plus a vast library of classic PS3, PS2, PS1, and PSP games. This extensive catalog ensures a diverse range of genres, including a strong horror selection.
Updated January 5, 2025 by Mark Sammut: The December 2024 PS Plus Extra and Premium additions lacked horror titles, leaving players to rely on existing games. Note that Resident Evil 2 will be removed on January 21, 2025, impacting the best horror options available. However, its relatively short campaign allows for completion before removal. Resident Evil 3 remains on the service. This update includes a new section suggesting alternative PS Plus games for horror fans.
