Sony Interactive Entertainment has locked in three new additions to the PlayStation Plus Monthly Games line-up for this month, with their trio of new additions set to all go live a little later in the month – starting Tuesday 6 October 2026. On offer are races that will see you seek out glory on the podium, monsters to tackle and a voxel combat experience to cap things off. Regardless of your subscription tier, all three of these titles will be available to add to your library indefinitely until Monday 2 November 2026. You can read more about each of the new additions below:
F1 25 on PS5
Leave your mark on the world of racing in F1 25, the official video game of the 2025 FIA Formula One World Championship. Enjoy single-player experiences such as Career and My Team 2.0, letting you create your own F1 stories as you take control as the Owner of a Formula 1 team. Then take the race online against other players, including a brand new multiplayer mode in F1 World, where you and your friends race as a squad against AI drivers.
Hunt: Showdown 1896 on PS5
Hunt: Showdown 1896 is a new era of the addictively unforgiving extraction shooter. In corrupted backwaters lost to history, fight back alone – or with friends – against timeless evil. Twisted monsters and other ruthless Hunters stand between you and your Bounty. Risk everything as Hunt consumes you. Race competing Hunters to track down bosses, send them to hell, claim their bounty, and fight your way to extract. If others only slow you down, go alone. If you find strength in numbers, take up to two teammates along.
Earth Defense Force: World Brothers 2 on PS4 and PS5
The square Earth is under attack by giant enemies. Teammates scattered around the world are waiting to be rescued. Select 4 teammates from among those you have collected and create your own team. Design the team perfect for your play style, select your equipment, and then deploy to battle. In addition to soldiers from the mainline EDF series, this game also includes soldiers from the EDF spin-offs, and enemies who ravaged the planet in previous releases have also crossed over into this world to join the fight. Enjoy fighting numerous enemies, including redesigned voxel versions of old favourites, as well as new enemies unique to this release. Enjoy four-player online co-op and two-player local split-screen on PS5 and PS4.
Additionally, there are a few other perks available to active subscribers this month. Fans of the recently released Spider-Man Brand New Day feature film can nab themselves limited-edition avatars for a limited time, while PlayStation Plus exclusive HorrorFest packs for games like Call of Duty: Warzone, Hunt: Showdown 1896, and Overwatch 2 are either available now or will be made available in the coming week.
Also a quick reminder to add Sniper Elite: Resistance, MLB The Show 26, Wobbly Life and Chained Echoes – the September 2026 PlayStation Plus Monthly Games – to your library ahead of them leaving on 5 October 2026. Even if you do not currently have interest in playing them, provided you remain an active subscriber, you will have indefinite access to these titles should you ever get that itch to play them.
