The next trio of free games for PlayStation Plus subscribers are in. From Oct. 5, subscribers can get Mortal Kombat X, new title Hell Let Loose and PGA Tour 2K21 for free. You’ll be able to do so until Nov. 1, when a new set of games will be cycled in. That means you have a few more days to download September’s free games, which include Hitman 2.
It’s far from the Xbox Game Pass, the subscription service featuring over a hundred titles that Microsoft is building the Xbox Series X|S around, but there are some amazing deals to be found, especially if you keep an eagle eye on the monthly selection of free games. Once you’ve downloaded them, you keep these games for as long as you want — they don’t expire after the month is up.
You need PlayStation Plus to play PS4 and PS5 games online, but the service has evolved to be much more than a fee for online play. For $10 a month, or $60 a year (which means you’ll get a 50% discount if you opt for an annual membership), subscribers get an evolving list of discounts and, most importantly, access to free games. Usually, Sony offers three free games per month.
PS5 owners also get access to the PlayStation Plus Collection, a set of classic PS4 games, for free.
October’s free games are Mortal Kombat X, Hell Let Loose and PGA Tour 2K21. PlayStation Plus subscribers can download them for free between Oct. 4 and Nov. 1.
October 2021’s free games
Mortal Kombat X (PS4)
Mortal Kombat X isn’t the newest game in the franchise — 2019’s Mortal Kombat 11 came after — but it is one of the best. Mortal Kombat X was released in 2015 to widespread praise, with critics praising its story, character designs and deep gameplay. In fact, GameSpot said it had “the best fighting mechanics of any game in the series” up until that point. Note: This game is already available for free download for PS5 owners in the PlayStation Plus Collection.
Mortal Kombat X usually retails for $19.99 on the PlayStation Store Hell Let Loose (PS5ee.S5e.PS5).
If you’ve never heard of Hell Let Loose before, it’s because it’s a brand new game — on PlayStation 5, at least. Originally funded via Kickstarter and then released on PC in 2019, this battle royale game makes its debut on PS5 and Xbox Series X|S on Oct. 5. It’s a World War 2 shooter than pits you in 50 versus 50 team battles on either the western front, pitting Germans against Americans, or the Eastern front, where Germans take on the Soviets. PGA Tour 2K21 (PS4)
PGA Tour 2K21 is the latest golf simulator — so if you’re after a golf simulator, this is it. Developed by 2K, PGA Tour 2K21 delivers a “a wonderful golf sim that’s getting closer to the real thing,” according to GameSpot’s Steven Petite. PGA Tour 2K21 usually retails for $59.99 on the PlayStation Store.
