PlayStation Plus Extra and Premium | Game Catalog
Mafia: The Old Country | PS5
Uncover the origins of organized crime in this gritty mob story set in the brutal underworld of 1900s Sicily. Fight to survive as Enzo Favara and prove your worth to the Family in this immersive third-person action-adventure set during a dangerous, unforgiving era. This thrilling narrative is brought to life by stunning visuals, cinematic storytelling and the authentic realism that the critically acclaimed Mafia series is known for. Enzo’s story unfolds in a time when skill with a stiletto blade was a deadly asset, a lupara sawed-off shotgun was a go-to firearm, murderous vendettas raged for decades, and mafiosi patrolled their protection rackets on foot, horseback or behind the wheel of turn-of-the-century motorcars.
Horizon Forbidden West | PS5, PS4
Join Aloy as she braves the Forbidden West – a majestic but dangerous frontier that conceals mysterious new threats. Explore distant lands, fight bigger and more awe-inspiring machines, and encounter astonishing new tribes as you return to the far-future, post-apocalyptic world of Horizon. Reunite with old friends, forge alliances with warring new factions and unravel the legacy of the ancient past – all the while trying to stay one step ahead of a seemingly undefeatable new enemy.

Mycopunk | PS5

They are the New Atlas Hazard Crew, a ramshackle squad of exterminators sent to uncover the mysteries behind a planet-wide fungal catastrophy. Embark on a series of dangerous planet-side missions to drive back the mycological menace. Could this be a simple natural disaster like they claim? And did SAXON really misfile your taxes? Or was that your own fault?

Really lacking on the scary games this year for Halloween season.
Forgot the part about how they'll delete your digital game library just because they can.
What game did they delete on you that you had installed on your PS5?
Didn't happen to me, but it's happened to people who actually have a PS5 with digital games on it.
If you're referring to the inactive PSN accounts, you need to log into PSN one time every 36 months to restore your digital license. Even after 36 months of inactivity, they still send you an email telling you to sign in to restore the license and then give you 6 months to respond to that email or log in. So if someone is not signing in once every 3 and a half years online in this day and age then obviously there's an user problem or it's deliberate. Furthermore, that particular issue is an EU issue with privacy laws in how data is regulated.
Other than that, Sony does not go in and remove your already installed games from your hard drive. Even if a game is delisted and you have it installed, it's still available to you. I still play my digital copy of Digimon: Cyber Sleuth to this day and that was delisted in 2019. So I call BS on Sony removing installed games on people as you say and yes I am talking about games, not movies but games.
Well it's still a shitty practice.
