PS Plus October Game Catalog Adds Tales of Arise and Mafia
Two of the month's headliners, Tales of ARISE - Beyond the Dawn Edition and Mycopunk, arrive as full packages rather than base-game drops, which is a different shape of catalog filler than a straight back-catalog rotation.

Sony Interactive Entertainment announced the October 2026 overseas Game Catalog lineup for PlayStation Plus Extra and Premium subscribers. The list is split across three dates. The Midnight Walk, a claymation horror adventure from Fast Travel Games that supports PS VR2, arrives October 15. On October 20, Mafia: The Old Country from 2K, Horizon Forbidden West from Sony Interactive Entertainment, and the four-player co-op shooter Mycopunk from Devolver Digital join. October 27 brings Tales of ARISE - Beyond the Dawn Edition from Bandai Namco Entertainment, Poppy Playtime: Chapter 2 from Mob Entertainment, and Monster Energy Supercross 25 - The Official Video Game from Milestone. In the Classics Catalog for Premium members, Capcom's Dino Crisis 2 and RollerCoaster Tycoon 3: Complete Edition are both listed for PS5 and PS4. Release dates differ by title. Titles without a specified date become playable from October 20.
The October 2026 Game Catalog splits across three release dates rather than one, with the first batch landing October 15 and the largest cluster on October 20. Sony Interactive Entertainment published the overseas lineup on October 15, the same day the PlayStation account promoted Mafia: The Old Country, Horizon Forbidden West, Mycopunk, and Poppy Playtime: Chapter 2.
Two entries carry more than a straight re-list. Tales of ARISE - Beyond the Dawn Edition bundles the 2021 RPG with its major DLC, a package that includes a story set after the ending plus new dungeons and subquests and an important character named Nazamil. The base game was previously offered in the Game Catalog in February 2024. Mycopunk arrives alongside its official release, and The Midnight Walk supports PS VR2. The Classics Catalog, which is limited to Premium members, adds two titles rather than the seven in the main catalog.
