Free PSN Games for October 2020

Need for Speed Payback and Vampyr are two popular titles that have been announced for the PlayStation Plus subscribers this month. However, both games will only go live on Tuesday, October 6. This means that you will need to wait a few days before you can finally download them. Until then, here's a look at what you can expect from the two video games if you choose to download them.

Need for Speed Payback

Need for Speed Payback is certainly one of the biggest simulation video games in the Need for Speed series. Developed by Ghost Games, Payback is the twenty-third instalment in the NFS franchise that manages to offer an intriguing gameplay mechanic and game modes.

Vampyr

Vampyr is another exciting title to look forward to if you are into horror or action-RPGs. Set in a fictional early 20th century Britain, the video game features a gothic narrative that centres around Jonathan E. Reid, an acclaimed military surgeon who turned into a vampire following the outbreak of a deadly virus. You take the role of Jonathan Reid and embark on a mission with a primary goal of unleashing your vampiric lust on the many civilians that you encounter along the way and claim them as your prey. The role-playing video game also allows you to fulfil occasional quests in your wicked journey.

As noted earlier, the two PS4 games are yet to be released on the platform. Once they go live, PS Plus members download the games by heading over to the PlayStation Network.
