It seems like just a moment ago when Red Dead Redemption 2 made its return to PS Plus, challenging everyone to finally dive into its vast open-world Western adventure. Now, as October rolls in, it’s heading out of the PlayStation subscription service once again, along with several other exciting titles.
Recently, the “Last Chance” section on the PSN store for both PS5 and PS4 received an update, revealing the games bidding farewell to the PS Plus Extra library at the month’s end. Among these is Red Dead Redemption 2, which rejoined the lineup back in May. Another major title leaving is Kingdom Hearts, and that’s a bit of a heartbreaker, especially since I just kicked off the first game with my kids over the weekend. Here’s the complete list of 16 games making their exit in October:
– Red Dead Redemption 2 (PS4)
– Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas – The Definitive Edition (PS4 | PS5)
– Teardown (PS5)
– Chorus (PS4 | PS5)
– Dragon’s Dogma: Dark Arisen (PS4)
– What Remains of Edith Finch (PS4 | PS5)
– Overcooked! 2 (PS4)
– Superliminal (PS4 | PS5)
– Blasphemous (PS4)
– Moving Out (PS4)
– Kingdom Hearts HD 1.5 + 2.5 ReMIX (PS4)
– Kingdom Hearts HD 2.8 Final Chapter Prologue (PS4)
– Kingdom Hearts III (PS4)
– Kingdom Hearts: Melody of Memory (PS4)
– Mobile Suit Gundam Extreme Vs. Maxiboost On (PS4)
– Eiyuden Chronicle: Rising (PS4 | PS5)
– The Sims 4 City Living [DLC]
Another standout departure is Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas. Blasphemous and What Remains of Edith Finch are real gems worth trying, while Teardown offers a unique and oddly satisfying experience with its voxel-based destruction gameplay. Red Dead Redemption 2’s time on PS Plus was quite brief, just a six-month stint. The Kingdom Hearts series is the latest in Square Enix’s RPG lineup to say goodbye to PS Plus.
Gamers have grown quite adept at figuring out which titles might be leaving PS Plus, often based on typical agreement durations of six, 12, and 18 months. Using these metrics, some guessed that Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart and Humanity might not last much longer on the service either. Yet, for now, they are still available. So, if you haven’t got around to them yet, consider this a heads-up—you might want to jump in soon!
