Sony added three new games on October 27, 2026, to the PlayStation Plus Extra and Premium catalog: Poppy Playtime: Chapter 2, Tales of Arise: Beyond the Dawn Edition, and Monster Energy Supercross 25: The Official Video Game. This latest October wave brings together a horror adventure, a Japanese role-playing game, and a motocross simulation, with availability varying depending on consoles and regions.
To help you navigate this selection, we can highlight three points:
Two games are offered on PS4 and PS5, while the Supercross title is reserved for PS5.
These additions concern the PS Plus Extra and PS Plus Premium plans, not the Essential offer.
As regional catalogs may differ, the availability of each game should be checked on the PlayStation Store of your territory.
The update complements a schedule deployed in several stages, following the arrival of The Midnight Walk on October 14 and the general availability of other titles announced on October 20. To choose according to your preferences, we will distinguish genres, editions, and platforms rather than treating this selection as a simple block of new releases.
PlayStation Plus Extra and Premium: the three games added on October 27
The three titles form the last announced wave for the month of October on Sony’s higher-tier gaming subscription plans. The contrast between their universes is clear: a creepy toy factory, a fantasy story focused on two warring worlds, and races on dirt tracks. This diversity can suit very different profiles, even if no common theme directly links the games.
Camille, a fictional player who usually alternates between action and long-form narratives, could for example start with Poppy Playtime: Chapter 2 for a tense session, then turn to Tales of Arise when she wants to immerse in a larger adventure. Monster Energy Supercross 25 answers another desire: to start a race, learn a track, and improve her lines. The three offerings therefore do not occupy the same playtime or mood.

Poppy Playtime: Chapter 2, a toy factory to explore on PS4 and PS5
In Poppy Playtime: Chapter 2, the Playtime Co. factory returns as the main setting. The bright colors and childlike shapes evoke the toy world, but the atmosphere quickly shifts into a disturbing experience. Mob Entertainment’s game relies on exploring industrial locations, environmental puzzles, and sequences where quick reactions are needed to escape dangers.
The GrabPack is at the heart of this progression. This equipment allows interaction with distant elements and manipulation of certain mechanisms; it serves both to solve puzzles and to advance through various zones. Facing Mommy Long Legs, caution and observation are as important as speed. A player who examines a room before rushing in may spot a useful mechanism or understand the logic of a blocked passage.
Availability on PS4 and PS5 makes this chapter accessible to players of both console generations. If you are discovering the series, expect a game alternating exploration and tension rather than continuous action. For Camille, it is the most suitable choice for a short session where atmosphere and puzzles take precedence over the progression of a long story.
Tales of Arise: Beyond the Dawn Edition, a complete adventure to discover
Tales of Arise: Beyond the Dawn Edition combines Bandai Namco Entertainment’s main game and its Beyond the Dawn expansion, on both PS4 and PS5. The value of this edition lies in its bundled content: subscribers who have never started the adventure can experience the original story, then access its continuation without separately searching for the expansion.
The story revolves around Dahna and Rena, two worlds whose relationship is marked by domination and inequality. The narrative follows a struggle for freedom through its characters, confrontations, and the consequences of this opposition on the societies involved. This structure gives the role-playing game a strong narrative dimension: battles pace the adventure, while the relationships between protagonists add depth to the stakes.
For players already familiar with the main game, Beyond the Dawn is the first point to consider. For others, the edition provides a more coherent entry point into the whole offering. Since no precise duration is given for the content, we will avoid promising a number of hours: the choice suits mainly those seeking a sustained experience rich in characters. You can also browse this page dedicated to PS Plus Premium games for October to compare the other additions of the month.
In this wave, Tales of Arise stands out for the breadth of its universe rather than an isolated mechanic: the main game and its expansion form a whole aimed at fans of fantasy stories.
Monster Energy Supercross 25: races reserved for PS5
Monster Energy Supercross 25: The Official Video Game, developed by Milestone, completes the selection with a sports offering available only on PS5. The game is based on the official 2025 season, its professional riders, and tracks inspired by real competitions. Racing enthusiasts can thus rediscover an environment close to the championship, while newcomers can learn lines and bike behavior through the events.
The career mode allows building progress around races, while tracks evolve during the action. Ruts and terrain changes have a gameplay function: they influence how to approach a turn or prepare a jump, rather than serving merely as scenery. The use of Unreal Engine 5 supports this work on tracks and physics, aiming to make races more sensitive to track conditions.
To concretely measure what this changes, imagine Camille tackling the same section several times after other riders have passed. A deeper rut can change her angle of approach and cause her to lose speed if she maintains exactly the same line. This kind of detail rewards observation and adaptation, two qualities useful in racing video games.
Availability, PS Plus plans, and choices according to your profile
These three new games are announced for Extra and Premium subscribers in the United States, the United Kingdom, and Japan. As catalogs may vary from one territory to another, we advise you to search for each title on your local PlayStation Store before planning your download. Arrival in the catalog also does not mean the games will be kept indefinitely: subscription selections may evolve.
It is also necessary to distinguish the game catalog from the monthly Essential titles. Subscribers to PS Plus Extra or the Premium offer get the three additions presented here, while Essential subscribers do not receive them automatically. The monthly list posted for October mentions F1 25, Earth Defense Force: World Brothers 2, and Hunt: Showdown 1896, with availability indicated until November 2, 2026; these items do not have a separate official confirmation here.
If you like horror and puzzles: start with Poppy Playtime: Chapter 2.
If you seek a narrative role-playing game: Tales of Arise offers the main game and its expansion in the same edition.
If you prefer sports challenges: Monster Energy Supercross 25 offers career and evolving tracks, provided you play on PS5.
This distribution helps choose without confusing a catalog new release with a monthly Essential game. The best starting point therefore depends on your console and the type of session you want to start.
