3 PlayStation Plus Games To Play This Weekend (Oct. 17)

by

Next week is exciting for PlayStation Plus members! The critically acclaimed horror game, *Silent Hill 2* (remake), will be added to the game library. Until then, PlayStation gamers can still enjoy the hundreds of other games already available – there’s a wide variety to choose from, so there’s something for everyone.

Choosing a game can be overwhelming, but these three stand out as great options for this weekend. They include a truly scary interactive horror game that’s a classic, a fighting game that still holds up today, and a survival horror experience guaranteed to give you a fright.

The Dark Pictures Anthology: Man of Medan Delivers Cinematic Terror on the High Seas

The studio behind the popular game *Until Dawn*, Supermassive Games, has created *The Dark Pictures Anthology*, a series of choice-based horror games. Each game is a standalone story, designed to be smaller in scale but creatively bold. *Man of Medan* was the first game in the series and is still considered one of the most chilling and unforgettable.

This game takes place on a haunted ship sailing the South Pacific, and your choices control the fate of five characters. Every decision you make impacts whether they live or die, creating a suspenseful and cinematic experience with a story that changes based on your actions.

Even now, *Man of Medan* is memorable for its immersive atmosphere and how often you’ll want to play it again. With realistic graphics, a story that changes based on your choices, and the option to play with friends, it’s a great choice for a spooky Halloween game – and it’s short enough to finish in one night or over the weekend. Plus, PlayStation Plus Extra and Premium subscribers already have access to this game and the other two in the series.

Tekken 2 is a PlayStation Classic That Defined a Generation

Next week, *Tekken 3* will be available for PlayStation Plus members through the Classics lineup. In the meantime, *Tekken 2* is a great way to practice and remember the game’s controls. Before it became the competitive fighting game we know today, *Tekken 2* was a groundbreaking title in the mid-90s. It featured an improved fighting system, smoother movement, and a cast of memorable characters.

Tekken 2 was a groundbreaking game that helped shape the 3D fighting games we play today, and it perfectly captured the exciting feel of early PlayStation games. It’s always a good time to revisit this classic, especially since its sequel is coming to PS Plus very soon.

As a huge fan, I’m so excited about this re-release! They’ve really brought it up to date with things like better graphics, the ability to save anywhere, and even a rewind feature if you mess up – which, let’s be honest, happens to the best of us! The only catch is, it looks like you’ll need a PlayStation Plus Premium subscription to play it. Still, totally worth it for a classic like this!

Five Nights at Freddy’s: Help Wanted – Full Time Edition Brings Pure Panic to PS Plus

Five Nights at Freddy’s: Help Wanted – Full Time Edition brings the scary world of Five Nights at Freddy’s to life as a virtual reality game. But now, you can also play it without a VR headset! The game includes both brand new challenges and updated levels from previous games, where you’ll fix broken animatronics, try to survive each night, and discover hidden mysteries through a series of mini-games.

This game is built to be intensely thrilling, constantly challenging your reactions and composure. The *Full Time Edition* includes the original *Help Wanted* game, plus all additional content and expansions released after its launch. It’s the definitive way to experience the series’ history of frightening jump scares, before it evolved into what it is today.

Okay, so spooky season is here, and honestly, when this game is *on*, it’s seriously intense – like, pure adrenaline! The best part? If you’ve got PlayStation Plus Extra or Premium, you already have access, so there’s really no excuse to miss out.
