Wasn’t it just yesterday that Red Dead Redemption 2 made its triumphant return to PS Plus, tempting everyone to dive back into its sprawling open-world Western adventure? Well, brace yourselves because in October, this epic game will once again be saying goodbye to the PlayStation subscription service, taking a slew of other great titles with it.
If you check out the "Last Chance" section on the PSN store for PS5 and PS4, you’ll notice a fresh update revealing the games set to leave the PS Plus Extra library by the month’s end. Aside from Red Dead Redemption 2, which only rejoined the service this past May, Kingdom Hearts is also on its way out. This one hits close to home, as I just started playing the first game with my kids over the weekend. Here’s the complete rundown of the 16 games departing 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 that’s exiting is Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas. Blasphemous and What Remains of Edith Finch are truly remarkable, and Teardown offers a surprisingly entertaining experience with its voxel-based destruction mechanics. After six months, the latest stint of Red Dead Redemption 2 on PS Plus is also wrapping up. The Kingdom Hearts series marks yet another beloved collection of Square Enix RPGs leaving the service.
Gamers have become pretty adept at predicting which titles will vanish from PS Plus, often basing their assumptions on the typical six, 12, and 18-month deals that many companies seem to ink. With these patterns, fans had guessed that Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart and Humanity might also be leaving soon. But it looks like they’re sticking around for now. Consider this your six-month heads-up to jump into these games if you haven’t already.
