22 Best PlayStation Plus Horror Games, Ranked

This guide explores the revamped PlayStation Plus service and its diverse game library, focusing on horror titles available across its three tiers: Essential, Extra, and Premium. While online play requires at least the Essential tier, accessing a wider selection of horror games necessitates subscribing to Extra or Premium.

The Extra tier offers hundreds of PS5 and PS4 games, regularly updated with approximately 15 new additions monthly. Premium expands this library further, encompassing classic titles from PS3, PS2, PS1, and PSP. This extensive catalog ensures a diverse range of genres, including a substantial horror selection.

Note: The December 2024 PS Plus Extra and Premium update did not feature new horror games. However, several titles remain available. Importantly, Resident Evil 2 will be removed from the service on January 21, 2025. Fortunately, its campaign is manageable before this date. Resident Evil 3 remains accessible.

A new section highlighting alternative PS Plus games that might appeal to horror enthusiasts has been added due to the lack of new additions.
