There’s a bit of a wait ahead until the PlayStation Plus Essential lineup for November drops. However, PS Plus members in search of fun games without the need to shell out cash for new titles like Life is Strange: Double Exposure and Dragon Age: The Veilguard have plenty of outstanding options from October’s PS Plus Extra game catalog to explore. Here are some fantastic games to dive into this weekend.
Return to Monkey Island
The Monkey Island series revolutionized the adventure game genre in the 1990s, solidifying LucasArts’ success with its timeless charm. In 2022, franchise creator Ron Gilbert and designer Dave Grossman returned with a new installment, Return to Monkey Island. This latest chapter follows pirate Guybrush Threepwood as he again faces off against the villain LeChuck while seeking the elusive secret of Monkey Island. The game offers an enjoyable experience on a controller, maintaining the beloved humor and clever puzzles that originally made the series famous.
The PS5 version of Return to Monkey Island is part of the PS Plus Extra Game Catalog. It’s also available on PC, Nintendo Switch, Xbox Series X/S, iOS, and Android.
Two Point Campus
If you’re a fan of management sims, Two Point Campus stands out as an exceptional entry. Players are tasked with designing and managing various college campuses within the quirky Two Point universe. The game features intricate systems that will captivate dedicated players, yet it remains welcoming with its delightful graphics and humorous theme, including creations like “Knight School.” Understanding Two Point Campus provides a great stepping stone into a more complex genre and sets you up for Two Point Museum, slated for release next March.
Two Point Campus is available via the PS Plus Extra catalog for PS4 and PS5. It is also accessible on PC, Xbox One, Xbox Series X/S, and Nintendo Switch.
Ghostbusters: Spirits Unleashed
Although Halloween has come and gone, Ghostbusters: Spirits Unleashed is not your typical horror game. It’s an asymmetrical multiplayer experience where four players collaborate to track down and capture a ghost controlled by another player. While asymmetrical multiplayer games are abundant, Ghostbusters: Spirits Unleashed has made a remarkable impression, especially given its tie to a beloved film franchise. Gather your friends who also subscribe to PS Plus, and this is a game you’ll want to explore together.
Ghostbusters: Spirits Unleashed is available for both PS4 and PS5 as part of the PS Plus Extra game catalog. It’s also playable on PC, Xbox One, Xbox Series X/S, and Nintendo Switch.
