It's the final Wednesday of the week, which means we have the list of games coming to PS Plus Essential (and above) subscribers next month! The titles are a good fit for the spooky month of October, with a survival action-horror game that takes inspiration from Dead Space 3, a dark fantasy reimagining of the Wild West and... shudders farming. Games will be available between October 3rd and November 6th.

This is also your last chance to get last month's free games, as they'll only be available until October 2nd. Game descriptions taken from the linked article.


The Callisto Protocol | PS5, PS4

"In this narrative-driven, third-person survival horror set 300 years in the future, take on the role of Jacob Lee – a victim of fate thrown into Black Iron Prison, a maximum-security penitentiary located on Jupiter’s moon, Callisto. When inmates begin to transform into monstrous creatures, the prison is thrown into chaos. To survive, Jacob must battle his way to safety to escape Black Iron Prison, while uncovering the dark and disturbing secrets buried beneath the surface of Callisto. Using a unique blend of shooting and close-quarters combat, Jacob will need to adapt his tactics to combat the rapidly evolving creatures while scavenging to unlock new weapons, gear, and abilities to outrun the growing threat and escape the horrors of Jupiter’s Dead Moon."

Weird West | PS5, PS4

"Discover a dark fantasy reimagining of the Wild West where lawmen and gunslingers share the frontier with fantastical creatures, each playing with their own rules and their own peculiar motives in this isometric action RPG. The game supports different styles of play in a simulated sandbox world where characters, factions, and even places react to a player’s decisions, and players are faced with brutal choices and consequences that can’t be undone – including death. Discover the world through origin stories of different characters, moving from one character’s journey to the next until all converge in a final chapter."
