October’s PlayStation Plus Essential games are now available to claim
Including The Callisto Protocol, Farming Simulator 22 and Weird West
Sony Interactive Entertainment (SIE) has released October’s first PlayStation Plus games.
This month’s PlayStation Plus Essential titles are The Callisto Protocol (PS5, PS4), Farming Simulator 22 (PS5, PS4) and Weird West (PS5, PS4).
Subscribers have until November 6 to claim the games.
Essential is the entry-level PlayStation Plus membership tier, which offers subscribers access to a few ‘free’ games every month.
The service’s more expensive Extra and Premium tiers, which were introduced last summer, offer subscribers access to the Game Catalogue, a library of up to 400 downloadable PS4 and PS5 games, as well as Ubisoft+ Classics, a curated selection of titles from the Assassin’s Creed publisher.
Features reserved for Premium subscribers include game trials, cloud streaming, and access to the Classics Catalogue, which includes hundreds of games from the original PlayStation, PS2, PS3 and PSP.
Sony increased PlayStation Plus subscription prices by up to 35% last month.
The move saw the cost of 12-month subscription plans for the service’s Essential, Extra and Premium tiers rise by $20-$40 / £10-£20 / €12-€32 depending on the chosen membership plan.
