All Important Information about the PS Plus Essential Games in October 2025
Here we briefly introduce the three games:
Alan Wake II | PS5
Alan Wake 2 is a survival horror game by Remedy Entertainment that continues the story of the writer Alan Wake, who has been trapped in a nightmarish limbo for 13 years. In addition to Alan, players also control FBI Agent Saga Anderson, who investigates a series of murders in Bright Falls and becomes embroiled in Wake’s dark story. The game combines atmospheric horror with exploration, combat against supernatural enemies, and puzzles.
Goat Simulator 3 | PS5, PS4
Goat Simulator 3 is an open-world comedy game where you play as a chaotic goat rampaging through a large game world filled with physics-based absurdities. The game focuses on absurd actions, slapstick humor, and a lot of crazy interactions with the environment. There are numerous missions, mini-games, and challenges, which are mostly deliberately exaggerated and just plain funny. In addition to the single-player mode, Goat Simulator 3 also offers co-op modes so you can cause chaos together with friends or family.
MeinMMO editor Karsten also believes it belongs to the 10 best co-op games for families.
Cocoon | PS5, PS4
Cocoon is a puzzle adventure by Jeppe Carlsen, the lead gameplay designer of Limbo and Inside. In the game, you control a small creature exploring various worlds, each contained in glowing spheres. These spheres can be carried and nested, creating complex puzzles and challenges. The goal is to unravel the secrets of each world while delving deeper into a surreal, atmospheric environment.
What else should I keep in mind? If you haven’t claimed the games from last month for PS Plus yet, you should hurry. Once the new games are available, the old ones will be turned off. If you want to get the games, you need to have the paid PS Plus
subscription for your PS4 or PS5.
