It appears that a leak has surfaced suggesting that Until Dawn could be one of the free games available for PlayStation Plus subscribers in May 2025. While Sony has yet to confirm this, the leaked key art hints at the possibility of the Until Dawn Remastered version being offered, rather than the original 2014 release. We'll keep you updated as soon as we have official confirmation.
PlayStation Plus is a comprehensive online gaming service for PlayStation users, offering a range of benefits including free monthly games, limited-time trials, online multiplayer access, and exclusive member discounts. Additionally, Extra and Premium members have access to a vast catalog of current and classic games, while the monthly free games are accessible to all subscribers, regardless of their tier.
Speculation from the PlayStation subreddit community, as noted by PushSquare, suggests that this move might be tied to the recent release of the Until Dawn movie. However, the movie didn't meet expectations, receiving a 5/10 rating from us at IGN. Our review stated, "Until Dawn is more disappointing than deadly, leaving all the promise of the horror game behind for a jumble of horror-movie re-creations."
Similarly, the 2024 remaster of Until Dawn also received a 5/10 from IGN, with our review describing it as "an overpriced and under-featured remake that seems less like a must-have bit of moonlit murder and something closer to daylight robbery." In contrast, the original 2015 game by Supermassive Games was more favorably received, earning a 7.5/10.
In other news, 22 games are scheduled to be removed from the PlayStation Plus library next month, including popular titles like Grand Theft Auto 5, Payday 2: Crimewave Edition, and the last playable versions of first-party titles Resistance: Fall of Man and Resistance 2. This removal means that Resistance: Fall of Man and Resistance 2 will no longer be available on modern consoles.
