A listing discovered on the PlayStation Store suggests that the Until Dawn remake may join PlayStation Plus Essential in May 2025. This has generated considerable speculation among subscribers, with many wondering if the game’s inclusion is connected to a potential sequel or perhaps a promotion for a recently released film adaptation. The anticipated lineup for May 2025 will be available as early as May 1, and Until Dawn could be part of three or more free titles offered that month.
As is customary, PlayStation refreshes its offerings for PlayStation Plus Essential, Extra, and Premium subscribers each month. The Premium tier provides access to classic titles from the PS1, PS2, and PSP eras, along with cloud streaming options for PS3 and PS5 games. Gamers can keep the titles in their libraries as long as they maintain their subscriptions.
As April comes to a close, subscribers are eager to learn what May will bring. Recent rumors point to the Until Dawn remake being included in the upcoming offerings. Fans on Reddit, including user Budget-Neat4750, noted the listing despite May’s lineup not yet being officially announced.
This has led many to believe that the remake’s addition may be a marketing strategy coinciding with the new Until Dawn movie, with some hoping it signals a push for players to familiarize themselves with the game ahead of a potential sequel. If accurate, the Until Dawn remake will headline the free games for PlayStation Plus Essential for May 2025. Typically, three titles for PS4 and PS5 are added each month.
Meanwhile, subscribers can still claim their free games for April 2025, including RoboCop: Rogue City and The Texas Chain Saw Massacre, until May 5. Notably, PlayStation Plus will discontinue free PS4 games as a key benefit starting January 2026, making it important for subscribers to claim these titles while they can.
