It feels like only yesterday that Red Dead Redemption 2 arrived back on PS Plus, daring everyone to finally go ahead and finish the overwhelmingly big open-world Western. But now it’s leaving the PlayStation subscription service again in October, along with a bunch of other cool stuff.
The “Last Chance” section of the PSN store on PS5 and PS4 was recently updated to reveal the games that will be leaving the PS Plus Extra library at the end of the month. In addition to Red Dead Redemption 2, which only returned to the service this past May, Kingdom Hearts is also departing. That one stings, since I just started the first game with my kids over the weekend. Here’s the full list of 16 games leaving in October:
- Red Dead Redemption 2 (PS4)
- Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas – The Definitive Edition (PS4 | PS5)
- Teardown (PS5)
- Chorus (PS4 | PS5)
- Dragon’s Dogma: Dark Arisen (PS4)
- What Remains of Edith Finch (PS4 | PS5)
- Overcooked! 2 (PS4)
- Superliminal (PS4 | PS5)
- Blasphemous (PS4)
- Moving Out (PS4)
- Kingdom Hearts HD 1.5 + 2.5 ReMIX (PS4)
- Kingdom Hearts HD 2.8 Final Chapter Prologue (PS4)
- Kingdom Hearts III (PS4)
- Kingdom Hearts: Melody of Memory (PS4)
- Mobile Suit Gundam Extreme Vs. Maxiboost On (PS4)
- Eiyuden Chronicle: Rising (PS4 | PS5)
- The Sims 4 City Living [DLC]
Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas is another noticeable departure. Blasphemous and What Remains of Edith Finch are both exceptional. Teardown is a surprisingly fun voxel-based destruction sim. Red Dead Redemption 2’s latest tour will have lasted only six months. And the Kingdom Hearts saga marks the latest wave of Square Enix RPGs to leave PS Plus.
Players have actually gotten quite good at predicting which games will leave PS Plus when based on the six, 12, and 18-month cycles that most companies seem to sign deals for. Based on those metrics, fans were predicting that Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart and Humanity might not be long for PS Plus either. Seems like they’re here to stay for now. Consider this your six-month warning to play them if you haven’t already.
