This guide explores PlayStation Plus, Sony's revamped subscription service offering three tiers: Essential, Extra, and Premium. Essential is required for online multiplayer access and includes monthly free games. However, for a wider selection, especially horror games, Extra and Premium tiers are recommended.
Extra provides access to hundreds of PS5 and PS4 games, with roughly 15 new additions monthly. Premium includes all Extra games plus a vast library of classic PS3, PS2, PS1, and PSP titles. Sony's service boasts a diverse genre selection, ensuring a variety of games for most players, including a strong horror lineup.
Update (January 5, 2025): The December 2024 PS Plus Extra and Premium additions lacked horror titles. Note that Resident Evil 2 will be removed from the service on January 21, 2025. Resident Evil 3 remains available. A new section highlighting alternative PS Plus games for horror fans has been added.
