This guide explores the revamped PlayStation Plus service and its diverse game library, focusing on horror titles available through its tiers. PlayStation Plus now offers three tiers: Essential, Extra, and Premium. While Essential provides online multiplayer access and monthly freebies, horror enthusiasts will find a richer selection in the Extra and Premium tiers.
The Extra tier boasts a vast library of PS5 and PS4 games, regularly updated with around 15 new titles monthly. Premium expands upon this with classic PS3, PS2, PS1, and PSP games. Sony's service covers most genres, including a solid selection of horror games.
Updated January 5, 2025 by Mark Sammut: The December 2024 PS Plus Extra and Premium additions lacked horror titles. Unfortunately, Resident Evil 2 will be removed from the service on January 21, 2025, diminishing the horror selection. However, Resident Evil 3 remains available. Because no new horror games were added, this article now includes a section recommending alternative PS Plus games that might appeal to horror fans.
