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 through its tiers. Sony's 2022 overhaul introduced Essential, Extra, and Premium tiers, each offering distinct benefits. While PS Plus Essential is required for online play and includes monthly free games, the Extra and Premium tiers are necessary for accessing a wider selection, including many horror games.

The Extra tier boasts hundreds of PS5 and PS4 games, regularly updated with approximately 15 new additions monthly. Premium expands on this with access to classic PS3, PS2, PS1, and PSP titles. This extensive library ensures a variety of genres are represented, with a strong selection of horror games among the best offerings.

Update January 5, 2025: The December 2024 PS Plus Extra and Premium additions lacked new horror games. Note that Resident Evil 2 will be removed from the service on January 21, 2025, impacting the horror selection. However, Resident Evil 3 remains available. Given this, we've added a section highlighting other PS Plus games that horror enthusiasts might appreciate.
