Sony has unveiled the latest wave of titles heading to its PlayStation Plus Premium and Extra subscription services for October.

This month's headline offering is Mycopunk, a co-op looter shooter that launches day-one on the service. The game, which has maintained positive user reviews during its time in Steam Early Access, sees players leading a crew of robotic misfits to combat fungal alien invaders. Its console debut coincides with its 1.0 release.
Beyond Mycopunk, the selection includes significant titles such as Guerrilla Games' Horizon Forbidden West. The open-world action RPG returns to the subscription service, offering players a chance to explore its vibrant world filled with robotic creatures. Mafia: The Old Country, a narrative-driven prequel to the Mafia series, also makes its debut on the service. Eurogamer's review noted its more focused structure compared to previous entries in the franchise.
For those seeking a more chilling experience, The Midnight Walk and Poppy's Playtime are set to deliver. Capcom's classic survival horror title Dino Crisis 2 will be available to Premium subscribers. While leaning less into survival horror than its predecessor, the game's inclusion of menacing dinosaurs and tense camera work makes it a fitting addition for October.
PlayStation Plus subscribers can find further details on the service and its complete game catalog through an accompanying guide.
