PlayStation Plus Extra and Premium subscribers will get Mafia: The Old Country, Horizon Forbidden West and day-one co-op shooter Mycopunk in the Game Catalog on October 20. Horizon Forbidden West is returning to the service, while Mycopunk will join the catalog on its release day. Sony’s October lineup announcement also covers later additions, Premium classics and several HorrorFest offers.
October’s Game Catalog arrivals
The October 20 batch mixes a crime story set in early 20th-century Sicily with Aloy’s return to the Forbidden West and a four-player fight against fungal aliens.
- Mafia: The Old Country (PS5) follows Enzo Favara through Sicily’s criminal underworld. The third-person action-adventure features stiletto combat, firearms and travel on foot, horseback or in period cars.
- Horizon Forbidden West (PS5, PS4) sends Aloy across a dangerous frontier filled with machines and new tribes as she confronts fresh threats.
- Mycopunk (PS5) is a mission-based looter shooter built around four-player co-op and hundreds of handcrafted upgrades. Players take on a planet-wide fungal threat as a crew of robot outcasts.
Premium members also get Dino Crisis 2 and RollerCoaster Tycoon 3 Complete Edition for PS5 and PS4 on October 20. Premium subscribers can try Resonance: A Plague Tale Legacy and Mortal Shell II through Game Trials starting that day, alongside current trials including Valheim and The Sinking City 2. PlayStation’s Game Trials page has the available selection.
