PlayStation Plus Game Catalog and Classics Catalog lineup for October 2023 announced

Sony has begun denoting which games are streamable with PlayStation Plus Premium, via a new logo on the console’s user interface.

October 2023’s PlayStation Plus Game Catalogue and Classics titles have been made available to subscribers.

Sony has begun rolling out cloud streaming for PS5 titles for PlayStation Plus Premium subscribers, starting with Japan. It’s targeting an October 23rd release in Europe and an October 30th launch in North America.

PlayStation Plus Premium members will finally be able to take advantage of PlayStation 5 cloud streaming when the feature becomes widely available later this month. 

Starting today, we’re taking a step forward in cloud gaming by rolling out our PS5 cloud streaming feature for PlayStation Plus Premium members. This includes supported PS5-native games available through the PlayStation Plus Games Catalog* and Game Trials, as well as supported digital PS5 titles you own. 

The tiered PlayStation Plus service still struggles to establish itself as a credible Xbox Game Pass alternative, and the recent effort to add value with video content for PS Plus Premium subscribers has somehow made the service worse for many. In late 2021, Sony launched the Bravia Core streaming service, a niche product offered only with Sony’s Bravia TVs. Though it promised superior fidelity in movie playback, the service did not offer a fully stocked streaming library akin to Netflix or a vast storefront like Amazon’s Prime Video. Now rebranded Sony Pictures Core, PS Plus Premium subscribers have been promised a library of free films, but the app is riddled with bugs.

PlayStation Plus' October 2023 offerings for its Extra and Premium tiers are exactly what one would expect around the Halloween season. Several horror titles such as,,, and 's third entry, are advertised as the subscription's major draws for the month alongside the DC superhero title, but there is another title that's been added that shouldn't be overlooked:

Sony is set to launch the PS5 cloud streaming service for PlayStation Plus Premium members before the end of October.

Sony has announced that PS5 cloud streaming will be launching for all PS Plus Premium subscribers later this month, giving remote access to full fat PlayStation 5 games from the PS Plus Game Catalog, support for Game Trials, as well as a selection of games that are owned by members.

Gotham Knights leads the pack of new titles coming to the PlayStation Plus Extra and Deluxe/ Premium game catalog, this month. Starting October 17, all higher-tier PS Plus members can hop onto their Batcycles and ride around the streets of Gotham City, beating up all kinds of volatile criminals in the hopes of unmasking the enigmatic Court of Owls. Players can switch between Batgirl, Robin, Nightwing, and the Red Hood throughout the story to investigate Batman/ Bruce Wayne's death, and build out their character via a gear system. Gotham Knights wasn't nicely received at launch due to a myriad of performance issues across console and PC, in addition to having a repetitive gameplay loop. It will be available on the PS5 only.

Along with announcing a launch date for PS5 cloud streaming via PlayStation Plus Premium, Sony revealed the newest games coming to Extra and Premium in October. Starting October 17th, subscribers can get their hands on Gotham Knights, the only current-gen title for the month.

Earlier this year, Sony promised they would launch PS5 cloud streaming for PlayStation Plus Premium members sometime this year, and now they’ve revealed the new feature will be arriving this month. Streaming games to PS4 or PC won’t be supported yet, so some may question the utility, but it will allow you to keep SDD space clear while testing out PS Plus titles. The streaming tech also sounds fairly advanced, allowing you to play at up to 4K and 60fps with HDR. Here’s a rundown of key features…
