October’s PlayStation Plus lineup is here, and it’s bringing a mix of psychological horror, chaotic fun, and mind-bending puzzles. Starting October 7, 2025, PS Plus members can download and play Alan Wake 2, Goat Simulator 3, and Cocoon until November 3.
PlayStation Plus Premium members also get a bonus this month: a one-hour Game Trial of Midnight Murder Club starting October 7, with progress and trophies carrying over if you purchase the full game.
🎮 Alan Wake 2 (PS5)
What begins as a small-town murder investigation soon transforms into a psychological survival horror. Step into the roles of two protagonists—the returning Alan Wake and newcomer Saga Anderson.
- As Wake, fight for survival in the hostile nightmare world known as the Dark Place.
- As Anderson, explore the Pacific Northwest, solve mysteries, and uncover unsettling truths.
- Light becomes your most vital weapon as you face supernatural forces in tense close-combat encounters.
“From the creators of Control, Alan Wake 2 delivers an unforgettable horror story told through two perspectives.”
🐐 Goat Simulator 3 (PS4 & PS5)
Pilgor is back—and this time, she’s bringing friends. Goat Simulator 3 is a hilarious sandbox experience packed with chaos and destruction.
- Team up with up to three friends in online or local co-op.
- Cause havoc with licks, headbutts, and mayhem across a brand-new open world.
- Compete in mini-games… and probably ruin some friendships along the way.
This isn’t just farming—it’s farming mayhem.
🌌 Cocoon (PS4 & PS5)
From Jeppe Carlsen, lead gameplay designer of Limbo and Inside, comes Cocoon—an inventive puzzle adventure.
- Each world exists inside an orb that you can carry on your back.
- Leap between orbs, combine them, and unlock new abilities to solve puzzles.
- Explore alien landscapes, ancient devices, and diverse biomes, uncovering secrets hidden in interconnected worlds.
A mind-bending puzzle journey awaits.
