Get ready to pop the confetti and throw some virtual cake, because Sony has comically unveiled the cherry on top of November’s gaming cake: the PlayStation Plus Game Catalog. Spoiler alert—Grand Theft Auto V is back to claim its throne, as if it never left the party!
The Return of a Legend (In Case You Forgot)
Yes, folks, it’s happening again! Grand Theft Auto V, that cheeky rascal, has strolled back in as the headline feature for November. Last seen making its mark in December 2023 and then again in November 2024, it’s like the game just can’t get enough of its six-month lease on life before a swift exit. If only human leases were that forgiving!
Indie Games That Are Actually Funny (No, Seriously)
Also, because every good party must have a jester, two BAFTA-winning indie games are crashing the PlayStation Plus fiesta. First up is the British comedy Thank Goodness You’re Here, which sounds promisingly hilarious (and maybe a bit like a personal experience). And just to keep things spooky while you’re chuckling, there’s Still Wakes the Deep, a first-person horror experience from The Chinese Room, because nothing screams “fun times” like being chased by imaginary ghosts!
A Cornucopia of Delightful Chaos
But wait, there’s more! Joining this motley crew of pixels on the wild ride are:
- Pacific Drive: A driving survival game that sounds risky enough to make anyone rethink their career choices.
- Insurgency: Sandstorm: Perfect for those who enjoy PvP and co-op chaos with a side of adrenaline.
- The Talos Principle 2: First-person puzzles that really make you question life, the universe, and everything.
- Monster Jam Showdown: Yes, because who doesn’t want to see trucks flip and fly, leaving logic behind?
- MotoGP 25: For those who think racing games are just a warm-up for the real-life galloping disasters.
The Timeless Classic Speaks Again
Meanwhile, for the loyal fans of Lara Croft, the Tomb Raider: Anniversary remake enters the ring for the Premium subscribers, offering nostalgic thrills on both PS5 and PS4. Because who wouldn’t want to relive their adventures of being a raiding archaeologist from the comfort of their couch?
The Moment of Truth
All these jaw-dropping games will be ready to rumble starting November 18, making it a date on calendars everywhere (or more likely, a reminder on phones since calendars are so last decade). All these delightful titles are exclusively available for the Extra and Premium tier members, so no sneaky cheapskates allowed!
What Was Last Month?
For those with short memory spans, October was the month of spine-tingling fun with games like Silent Hill 2, Until Dawn, Poppy Playtime: Chapter 1, and the vampire spectacle known as V Rising. And who could forget the glorious gem that was Tekken 3 for Premium? That’s right, nostalgia was in full swing.
The Future, It Seems, Is PS5
In a plot twist that nobody saw coming (cue the sarcasm), it has been casually strolled into the public eye that come January 2026, PS4 games won’t be the main attraction anymore. Instead, shiny PS5 titles are being groomed to take the lead role. Goodbye to the good ol’ PS4, it seems the kids today prefer the newer, shinier toys!
