22 Best PlayStation Plus Horror Games, Ranked

This guide explores PlayStation Plus, Sony's revamped subscription service offering three tiers: Essential, Extra, and Premium. Essential is required for online multiplayer access and includes monthly free games. However, for a wider selection, including horror games, Extra and Premium tiers are recommended.

Extra grants access to hundreds of PS5 and PS4 games, regularly updated with new additions. Premium expands this library to include classic PS3, PS2, PS1, and PSP titles. Sony's service boasts a diverse genre selection, with a notable horror game catalog.

Update (January 5, 2025): The December 2024 PS Plus Extra and Premium additions lacked horror titles. Note that Resident Evil 2 will be removed on January 21, 2025, leaving Resident Evil 3 as a remaining strong option in the genre. Given the shorter length of Resident Evil 2's campaigns, completion before removal is feasible.

A new section highlighting alternative PS Plus games appealing to horror fans has been added due to the lack of recent additions.
