When it comes to PlayStation's subscription services, it seem that PlayStation Plus gets the most attention. However, with many fans expressing disappointment with the free PS Plus games for October 2021, maybe more will give PlayStation Now a look. Sony has revealed the seven new games coming to PlayStation Now in October, including multiple titles that are perfect for the spooky Halloween season.

The headlining new game for PlayStation Now in October is The Last of Us 2, which will be available on the service from Tuesday, October 5 until it's removed on January 3, 2022. The Last of Us 2 has won more awards than any other game in history, despite some divisive choices Naughty Dog made with its narrative. In any case, its addition to PlayStation Now means anyone on the fence about it can experience the game without having to pay anything beyond their PlayStation Now subscription. And with PS Now available on PS5, fans can check out The Last of Us 2 PS5 performance patch if they haven't had the chance to do so yet.

Few games have the capacity to scare players like the Amnesia games do, making them the perfect games to play on PlayStation Now this Halloween.

The other new games coming to PlayStation Now in October 2021 include Desperados 3, Fallout 76, and Final Fantasy 8 Remastered. Desperados 3 is a critically-acclaimed strategy game, whereas Final Fantasy 8 Remastered is just the latest game in Square Enix's celebrated franchise to make the leap to PlayStation Now.

PlayStation Now doesn't get the same recognition as PS Plus or Microsoft's Xbox Game Pass, but it still offers a pretty insane value and practically pays for itself. It will be interesting to see if Sony starts to get more aggressive about its PlayStation Now support to better compete with Xbox Game Pass.
