PS Plus Game Catalog titles for October
Leading the Game Catalog this month is Dead Island 2, a sequel released last year by Dambuster Studios. This action RPG invites players to fight off waves of zombies in a chaotic version of Los Angeles, humorously referred to as Hell-A in the game. Gamers will engage in melee combat, crafting and upgrading weapons ranging from baseball bats to samurai swords, while also having access to firearms. Available on both PS4 and PS5, the game emphasizes a more hands-on and visceral combat experience.

The Game Catalog also includes Two Point Campus, a follow-up to Two Point Hospital. This business simulation game lets players build and manage a university campus, complete with different departments, events, and staff management. If you enjoy simulation games and fondly recall your college days, Two Point Campus may be an engaging choice. It will be available on both PS4 and PS5.

As Halloween approaches, the PS Plus Game Catalog also brings forth The Devil in Me, the latest installment in ‘The Dark Pictures Anthology’. This interactive survival-horror game serves as the final chapter of the series’ first season, featuring five characters who find themselves in peril while filming a documentary on a deserted island. With a narrative rich in choices and consequences, players’ decisions will shape the outcome for each character. The game will launch on both PS4 and PS5.
