PS Plus: Free Games for October 2015

One brutally difficult platformer, one heart-warming, coming-of-age story. This month’s PS Plus lineup has a great mix of flavors and you’ve come to the right place for the details! Starting on the first Tuesday of the month, a new lineup of free games comes to PlayStation Plus members, including Super Meat Boy and Broken Age on PS4.

Super Meat Boy will challenge even the most devoted platforming players with teeth-grinding levels, insane obstacles, horrible traps, and smiling chunks of meat. Yum! Can you stand against the gory onslaught of near-impossible tasks in Super Meat Boy? You’ll find out soon enough…

PS Plus: October 2015

If that’s a little too intense, why not point and click at things, instead? Broken Age is joining the PS Plus lineup, too! In it, guide two teenagers through strangely similar circumstances but on two different worlds. With a gorgeous soundtrack and award-winning cast, Broken Age is perfect for gamers that grew up with the adventure genre. Or people that just want to hear some jokes. Jokes are always good.

Last thing! Driveclub PlayStation Plus Edition will no longer be available as a free download for Plus members starting on October 6th, 2015. If you haven’t downloaded it yet, be sure to go to PlayStation Store now before October 6th!

  • Not a bad lineup but it definitely could be better. I wish PS Plus would add more major titles such as Assassin’s Creed or God of War.

  • Gee what happen to tha good stuff tha past yer it ben bad games yall lost ur tutch or went on a budget cut ever sents ps4 started roling up in tha market or somthing this is redicules i qweasten if i still wana exstend my plus geeee

  • It is sad to see we aren’t getting once $60 titles as much as we used to. But you guys have to admit, PS+ has been pretty generous to us with free games over the years. I have a ridiculously good library on PS3 thanks to PS+. It would be nice to see some more of the bigger games on PS4, and PS3 has been lacking these days. Last month wasn’t too bad, I really enjoyed grow home and Xeodriter. And I can appreciate Sony giving more attention to some of these indie titles. Still, I think Sony should consider more full titles. The Order comes to mind. I dropped $60 on it regrettably. Good story, great England steam punk-esque setting, awesome graphics, TPS GOW-like clone gameplay, was more of a cinematic experience. Bottom line, good game, not worth $60 imo, $20 maybe. But for a game such as that, PS+ is ideal. It definitely merits a playthrough. But yes, that’s an example, maybe Sony should focus on bringing free blockbuster titles that we’rent really the top dog, at least. The main reason I’m not disappointed with this months lineup is because Disgaea 5 comes out in 2 days and the end of my social/academic/work is over anyways. #WhatIsSleep?

    • Exactly, and as someone who made the switch from XB (360) back to PS with a PS4, I’m hard pressed to find a reason why buying the PS4 was smarter than buying a used PS3. Basically, there isn’t any reason at all why the PS4 was better for me to buy – even 2 years in.

  • Lame… The list just keeps getting worse by the month.

  • The games for this month aren’t that awesome but worth trying out no matter how old they are. I want to try Kickbeat, Broken Age and Chariot. It would be nice to see games like Thief, God of War 3 Remastered, Ratchet & Clank, The Order, something of that nature every few months or so. I’ve been a plus member since Plus started and have all plus titles including Infamous, Crisis, and many more great titles for PS3 but the last big one other than Drive Club I remember was Infamous First Light. Maybe Sony will review the comments over the past 2 years and see people want better but for now accept that your 50$ gives you over 30 games a year and online play

  • Kind of annoyed that there’s no horror game on the line-up for October :/

  • So I supported PS One when they gave incentives and massed the developers to have better games than the 3DO. I was ok with that and sold my 3DO and got a Psone, I then got the P@ when it came, and the PS3, and now the PS4. I will be givng my PS4 away to my daughter to use as a blu ray player. I have never so let down by Sony. Even a cool PS One game like Return Fire would be kinda cool. I am not into the Indie game thing, Kudos the all that are. I am a core gamer. I have owned and still own all the gaming systems going back to Pong on Colecovision.

    • I have been gaming for over 32 years. I am gravely disappointed in the recent games on Plus, heck even Knack would have been cool. I already finished it, however some people might like the experience. I get it that you still rely on revenue from launch titles, but be generous and throw your audience a bone once in a while. When you launched the PS4, you touted by gamers for gamers and you listened to feedback to make the experience awesome. How about following your own words that you committed to. Making the experience for the gamers. I see all the comments about people not thinking the games are good, you can’t please everyone. However stick to your core promise to the gamers that believed in your systems, and give them something other than game styles that I played on my 8 bit or 16 bit systems. Just saying……….

  • @Ryan Clements u supposed to replay on comment. I am curious why stop replaying? Also, wanted to hear your voice commenting on ps+ line up, but didn’t happened this month :/

  • I don’t understand all these stupid complaints. Yes these games really are free, a bonus. Your under $5 a month is for online play, which xbox has been charging since practically the beginning. I own both systems, and at least the ps4 gets different games. The xbox1 just gets a repeat of the 360’s title from 2 months ago. A lot of months my ps+ gives me new games, often just released that day. Most of the time gold gives me older, sometimes very old titles. I actually download more with ps+, since I already own most of the GFG titles. I am actually quite pleased with this month’s line-up, since I was actually considering buying Broken Age.

    Example: Valient Hearts for xbox1 was one of my 360 titles a few months ago. See, doing it again. Walking Dead is for both systems, (which I will still download) and Metal Gear isn’t one of my franchises. (Though they had some MG titles on + for vita not too long ago.) So my Gold gives me only 2 new games this month, one which I won’t use. The others are a repeat.

    PS+ gives me more. Even if I only own one system. I think it’s smart to make it so that many times if you have at least 2 of sony’s systems you can get a version of all tiles. PS4 gets 3, PS3 and Vita 4 titles.

    • yea its sweet you can get 3 puzzle platformers with poor graphics and stupid plot lines billed as “humor” for ps4, and 4 puzzle platformers with poor graphics and stupid plot lines billed as “humor” for ps3 and vita! and all of them will be “epic journeys of exploration and discovery”. im working on my own where i take 16 bit graphics an make a dead raccoon steal a pizzas girlfriend and it is hilarious. oh yea and an epic journey of exploration. you can even put a hat on your pizza! its practically art.

  • Sweet I love all of these games can’t wait to play them.

  • UndeadXSamB I will send you Assassins creed for nothing I don’t like it give me your address and will send Tomoz. Just seen your post and you sound desperate lol. I just got bored after the 3rd or 4th ones only bought it at the time as there was not many games out.

  • I can’t believe the world record amount of complaints about this months PS+ lineup. I mean it makes me think everyone here has no other games to play besides anything on PS+.

    Did everyone buy PS4’s just for PS+?
    This months lineup ain’t screaming “So Awesome!”, but it’s worth trying out.

    It’s just another month out of a years lineup. Heck I’m sure by the time you really care something you want to play gets released.

    • I’m complaining because it’s been about a year since there was a good PS+ game while I see Xbone getting at least one good AAA a month. If I’m paying fifty dollars a year for a service and I feel it is inadequate I have a right to complain. At this point, I’m looking more towards jumping ship and going to Xbox one.

  • These games absolutely SUCK! So sick of these low budget, poor graphic Indie games. I get 1 indie game for PS4, but come on man add a grade “A” real game. I have ps4 and Xbox one, I’ve been a playstation guy forever, but the Xbox IS giving out better games with GOLD overall. Sure they had some rough months, but PlayStation is just getting ridiculous with this CRAP!

  • Indies really? What happened to good games. I would rather not have two crappy games and just get only one good game or just give deeper discounts on game downloads or digital games.

  • Did you actually think it would be AAA titles every month? It would be impossible that up…if they did Xbox Live and PS Plus would have to triple or quadruple in price…it wouldn’t sustain itself…however, it seems that Microsoft has decent games one month, then Sony the other. Still, the free titles at least it make the purchase of Plus and Live more bearable…in the beginning you would get some deals, but not decent titles for free as they have been doing. Enjoy what you get to try and Indie titles are sometimes surprisingly good.

    SEADRIVE

    • its been 10 months since a AAA title…are you stupid? No one expects it every month even AFTER the promise but this is utterly ridiculous

  • I don’t understand the entitled whining. Oh are these FREE games not what you wished for? Don’t download them. Sony doesn’t owe you.

  • Look PS+ members Sony cannot just release AAA titles every month because you want them to. They have to make every platform selection balanced/fair. I do agree that we should be receiving decent games not saying that Super Meat Boy isn’t because I have not played it but for someone to say PS+ is not worth it. Look at it like this Super Meat Boy will probably go on sale for $19.99 for NON-PS+ members…$19.99! Not even counting the 2 other FREE games that Sony is giving us for free that’s probably well over $60+ dollars for 3 Indie games. Stop being ungrateful, remember…Sony does not have to give you ANYTHING.

  • WAKE UP GAMERS!! Paying to play online is utterly RIDICULOUS!!! We pay to play online; it’s called our INTERNET BILL! Really…what do we get for our 50.00 a year that we are FORCED to pay??? A bunch of Shovelware???

    I blame the clueless “gamers” of this generation for the BS that plagues consoles, PC’s are hardly perfect either, but an Open Platform> a Closed platform Tyranny ANY DAY!! PC has amazing exclusives as well.
    Really other than Uncharted,TLOU, & Bloodborne, PS4 doesnt bring much to the table.

    I havent touched my PS4 in months…. It’s hardware is severely OUTDATED and it’s not even worth trading in, I try to justify it’s existence in my home theater, but I just cant. My Smart tv and Blueray both run every app I need for non gaming entertainment and My Ps3 and PC have MUCH better gaming experiences not to mention more inexpensive ones that are just better value.

    REMOVE Mandatory Online paywall from PS- and watch you subs drop and maybe Ill use my PS4 again..
    I spent over 300.00 on Steam this summer and NOT ONE CENT ON SONY………….Over 300 HUNDRED DOLLARS….

  • The free monthly games for the ps3 were much better than they put out on ps4 sort it out Sony

  • Well, folks, shall I second most gamers inefficacy? In case PS forgot, its October. Halloween is upon us. You mean to tell me they couldn’t secure license for games like Dead Space, Shadows of the Damned, or (though newer,) The Evil Within? As with many of you, my PS Plus expired, but I have absolutely no motive or inclination to renew subscription. Also, its not just this month. Too numerous to mention have there been games that I myself would not download ,free or not. You like indie games or what ever they’re called, fine. I hope you enjoy them and they make ye jubilant. But for guys like myself, there’s very little incentive to reestablish relations with PS Plus.

  • You guys should relax. $50 a year for a plus account isn’t that big a deal. And maybe you don’t agree with what they’ve been giving away but I’m sure everyone can find at least one or two of the games enjoyable if they give them a chance instead of saying they’re garbage right away. You’re paying for the service and getting the games free. $50 a year for 6 free games a month is a good deal.

  • Now I know you guys at playstation get this alot but wheres the actual games not the indie games but the actual games. I’m sitting here twiddling my thumbs looking at my ps4 wondering where all the games are and every month its indie games. I don’t know about you but when I walk into a game store its very minimal ps4 games on the shelves no matter where I go, and now all you give us is indies? How is this making it good for a consumer end when you and others keep giving nothing. Think about it this way you keep giving trash no one is going to want it, so they’ll go elsewhere. Also there’s roughly over 800 ps4 titles so throwing your consumers a bone here and there wouldn’t hurt.

  • I’m not really one to complain but what exactly am i paying for? With PS3 online was free, then you paid for PS+ in order to get good free monthly games. Now that we are paying for server upkeep all you give us is garbage. At least give us Watch Dogs or Mortal Kombat X. Wheres the good AAA games? I ditched my ***x for how Live was set up, paying to play online, Sony had a better deal, until PS4…

    I honestly just don’t know what Sonys doing anymore, especially after update 3.0. Communities is cool and useful, but thats the only feature i use out of the update. And honestly the update was not worthy of a version change, it should have been a .3 or .4, whatever .x came after the last 2.x version. When i think of a version change i think of an overhaul, not adding features 95% of players will never use while i STILL can’t have a custom background on my home screen…

    Anyway, you asked for my comment, there you have it, hope it helps.

    Have a nice day.

  • I switched over form Xbox to Playstation because there are some exclusives on Playstation that I really wanted. Last month I went ahead and got PS Plus because so many have been telling me that you get great games and that it is worth it. So far it looks like they were wrong.

  • What I find most upsetting is that the PS+ games released for PS3 are higher quality games. Older, sure, but there are AAA titles almost every month.
    As someone who came to PS4 from XB360, I’m seriously reminded constantly of that being a stupid decision. I’d have had a MUCH better experience if I’d have bought a PS3. The PS+ titles would fill in a mountain of AAA titles, and there would be a massive back catalog to buy, besides, and for cheap, used.
    2 YEARS IN, and I’ve got basically one or two games of mild interest, and no flagship title of note (Destiny doesn’t *pewpew* interest me, it’s basically a Halo clone; and I was done with COD before the first CODBLOPS). And the PS+ games I’ve gotten include FEZ and now Super Meat boy. Games I could have gotten for $4.99 or less for PS3.

    I’m tempted to sell the thing.

  • Games I’d like to see on PS Plus… Knack, Rayman Legends, Gianna Sisters Twisted Dreams, Devil May Cry 4 Special Edition, Hotline Miami 2, Murdered Soul Suspect, Wolfensten The New Order, even any of the Lego games would be nice.. Step it up Sony!! This month is kinda weak!!

  • All I see is people whining and complaining, ya know they don’t even have to offer anything for FREE. I’m sure many of you haven’t even played these games to be chucking rocks at Sony…..grow the hell up. I’m glad they go Indy most times, discover games I wouldn’t even know about Grow Home believe it or not was fun as hell short but I completed it

  • I wonder if Sony is going to get the hint that we are sick and tired of Indy titles. I am sure most of us didn’t spend $400+ for a PS4 and then spend $50 a year on Plus just to get Super Meat Boy this month. I am also sure that most of us are sick of “charming” childish crap too.

    I am going to show you the list of what’s been free just for PS4 since launch, and then I am gonna tell you how many I actually have played.

  • Out of that big pile that is my list, I platinumed Dust: An Elysian Tale, and Infamous First Light before it was free. I play Rocket Arena, and my roommate plays Injustice: Gods Among Us… which I can find at a pawn shop for $10. You offered 1 AAA game for free, and Metal Gear Solid 5 Ground Zeroes was a 2 hour demo and shouldn’t have even been considered a “free game of the month”… pure insulting. My PS Plus expires on the 17th of this month. Guess what Sony, I also got an Xbox One, and Xbox Live. They offer way better games.

  • Tell you what, I am gonna buy 3 months this time when I renew. If you don’t give us games that aren’t a disgrace… actual AAA titles, I am going to sell my PS4, and all my games. Aside from the 1 or 2 exclusives that you guys have, there isn’t anything you have that I can’t play on my PC or my Xbox One… and considering that Xbox One is going to have ACTUAL backward compatibility in November, it’s going to make it a lot harder for you guys to maintain a customer base if you keep offering trash on a monthly basis. Crap like Meatboy is insulting… especially considering most of us that would ever play it already got it on Xbox 360 and it’s going to be compatible on Xbox One next month. I like you Sony… I really do, but smarten up cuz you are pissing off your customers who DO have an alternative.

  • Awesome! I’ve been wanting to play both. Thanks!

  • stop your complaining. for the price your getting a great deal with plus.

  • Sony never fails to bring us garbage every month but blame the brainless gamers for half of the garbage games we get every month on the PS4. I say speak with your wallets, don’t renew your plus subscription unless you need it to play online, just don’t even bother on adding the garbage games to your library, the numbers will tell.

    I play more on steam nowadays than I do on PSN, better deals, better Indies and better games across the board for almost every genre and more than on any console. I personally am considering trading in my PS4 for money to use on a new rig rather than waste more money on Sony.
    I might even consider XBL.

  • Really wish i went with xboxone much better games with ps4 iv only downloaded 1 that i would play god nows what there think puting crap like these on and they have a nerve to charge for ps plus what a joke

  • These new games are not showing up under my Playstation Plus free games, it still shows Grow Home and Super Time Force Ultra as the free games!

  • Not really a fan of the lineups lately. Nothing against Indies but, just can’t seem to find ones I would enjoy

  • People seriously get over it for 50$ a year ur getting roughly 3-5 games over 3 systems for 12 months just doing the minimum the minimum ur getting 36 games for the year as free option to download not counting that u get bonus discounts off ps sales to buy triple AAA games u apparently want so much and u get online play in most games that require it if u don’t like this deal by all means just cancel the subscription and if anything actually complain to sony the blog is’nt a support staff that can help you there just here to give you news you shouldnt be attacking them for just posting the news

    yes i agree alot of the games we get arent great but u know what ppl like these and maybe u would like them if YOU ACTUALLY play them before you rip them to shreds there are gems out there we dont get to see because of the AAA Market

  • I’ve never posted a comment before but I thought I would on this topic. I’ve been a PlayStation+ member since the Ps3 came out basically, and I always thought I got great value for my money. But since the Ps4 arrived I have been extremely disappointed in the monthly game choices, I don’t play online so the free games are the only reason I am a member. And as far as allowing me to vote on the next months games, I’m not a big fan of indie games that look like my 8bit, and 16bit machines could run 20 years ago, so for me voting was pointless.

  • Wow… is all I can say im glad i got three months free with my PS4 when i bought it but now i mean c’mon what is this and its October 5th as of writing this and this **** games are still not available? lmfao won’t be renewing sony this is pathetic

  • more indie crap i have finished a few of the indie game collection garbage see trophies on bmh01 for details if not for backlog of old AAA games from old days i haven’t had time for yet because of retail games i would be out i hope sony fixes this issue that everyone seems to have soon cuz this blows anymore still better than xbox in my opinion cuz they get games we gotten awhile ago still doesn’t make the indie garbage any better sony made the most powerful console ever use it its been two yrs tired of waiting average lifespan of consoles for playstation are what 6yrs were a 1/3 over on 4 still get nes quality wtf

  • maybe a now rental would shut us all up

  • Another sub par lineup. I don’t like to complain but c’mon Sony at least give us a decent title every OTHER month. Cheap ten dollar games that I wouldn’t buy in the first place are not a BONUS. Wise up.

  • What a bunch of babies, loving the new games! Thanks guys!

  • If I honestly got a ps4 to get mediocre titles on PSN+ I might as well fire up my ps3 and stick with that. This is extremely disappointing.

    I think a good move for sony would be to put PS Now games on rotation for the ps4 at least.

  • There is a ton of launch titles that came out, such as kill zone and knack that we should have gotten free by now and yet month after month we get 100% indie titles instead. Not complaining just trying to figure if AAA titles on ps+ are dead, used to be, game comes out, 6-12 months later ha,e had good chance to show up on ps+, now it’s game comes out………..

    Don’t get me wrong, 40% of the the indies have been good, but when 60% are crap, it starts to make us wonder if it’s worth downloading them at all, I got friends who don’t even bother with the free games each month. HOPEFULLY, November and December will turn up a better selection, if not, I can’t wait for another disappointing holiday line up for ps+, maybe it should be called PS- ……

  • Personally I feel the PlayStation Plus games have been fail for a while I originally started purchasing PlayStation Plus and a PlayStation for that matter because I really detest being forced to pay to play online when I have to pay to be online in the first place which is one of the reasons why I hated Xbox originally and the only reason I ever owned Xboxes was for one title I really can’t complain about the vote the one I voted for wasn’t there but that’s to be expected with the Internet I wouldn’t expect an AAA game every month or even every other month but once every four to five would seem reasonable for the most part I’m not really interested in the online aspects of most games and I get a nice game that allows me to continue playing on my system with renewed interest and sometimes the indie games surprise me and will hold my attention for a little while as an overall review I would have to I agree with most of the people who are complaining about all indie games all the time these games are not free PlayStation Plus was a way for people to spend a limited amount of money to get games monthly
